12c Forms Silent Installation Does Not Wait Until Completion (Doc ID 2877346.1)

Last updated on JUNE 26, 2024

Applies to:

Oracle Fusion Middleware - Version 12.2.1.4.0 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

When installing 12c Infrastructure, the installer waits until completion.

java -jar <PATH_TO>\fmw_12.2.1.4.0_infrastructure.jar -silent -responseFile <PATH_TO>\Infra.rsp

 

Whereas forms installer doesn't wait until completion.

setup_fmw_12.2.1.4.0_fr_win64.exe -silent -nowait -responseFile <PATH_TO>\frinstall.rsp


When running the installer the prompt should wait until the installer finishes but it does not wait in forms installation. The command prompt immediately returns with return code 0 (successful), independent from the actual result of the installation.

The  combination of  the parameters  -nowait and -noconsole doen't work as expected.


In 11g this works as expected using the below parameters.

setup.exe -silent -waitforcompletion -noconsole -force -responseFile fr.rsp
