    Description

      Trying to install JBDS 8.0.0.GA in a customer locked down environment, on a windows machine which has the group policy for locking out the cmd prompt enabled causes the installer to hang at the P2 Director stage. Running with -DTRACE=TRUE shows that it gets to running java -jar ...JBDS.....jar but is trying to use some mechanism which on windows invokes the command prompt, and we end up with, in the console, the message

      The command prompt has been disabled by your administrator.
      Press any key to continue . . .

      but this is hidden when not running in -DTRACE=TRUE mode, and even in trace mode, you can't hit a key as the installer has focus and not the console
