After installing GeoNetwork on Windows 7 64 bit systems, I have noticed
that shortcuts in Start->GeoNetwork ("Uninstaller") do not launch the
right application. I have researched this and it seems to be a bug in the
IZPack installer with windows 7 64bit.
The argument “command Line” does not seem to find the correct value for
“target” at certain situations. The published patch for 64 bit systems I
found did not work. My solution was to leave the “commandLine” blank and
move its value to “target” as follows:
Instead of :
target =”java”
commandLine==”-jar "$INSTALL_PATH/Uninstaller/uninstaller.jar" ”
I used:
target =”java -jar "$INSTALL_PATH/Uninstaller/uninstaller.jar" ”
commandLine==””

Comment(by pvgenuchten):
reproduced on Win7x64
- Uninstall contains target='...../license.html' -jar ...
- However in shortcut-definition, target for this shortcut is 'java',
target in previous item is '.../license.html'
Tried to reproduce in WinXPx32, but error did not occur.
Seems like a bug in IZPack, did not find any similar behaviour on their
website
Workaround might be, put uninstall shortcut before license shortcut
