running a silent install problem
I execute:
myinstall.bin -options-record response.txt
to run my installer in swing mode in hopes my interactions with the UI will be captured in the response.txt file. The file is created, but when I run in silent mode, the installation script does execute. My silent mode command line is:
myinstall.bin -options "response.txt" -silent.
Do I have to edit the response file and add something to make this work. I thought it was supposed to have all the information gathered from the swing session to run in the silent mode.

look at the respose.txt file - see if it has your values!
I believe you have to put in the values! You will also need to add generateOptionsEntriesDestination method to any custom dialogs that you may have added. If you notice say any variables not in the response file, you can just add them:
-V VARIABLE="value"
