Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server v3 Release Notes

updatetool command does not work if you reinstall into the same install directory on Windows (Issue 8233)

Description

If you reinstall Enterprise Server (with Update Tool) in the same installation directory with the same defaults and invoke Update Tool using the updatetool command, you receive a message saying that Update Tool is not installed and are asked if you want to install it. This occurs on Windows systems only.

For more information, see Issue report.

Workaround

Following uninstallation, manually remove the remaining .org* directory before reinstalling.
