[GeoNetwork-users] Geonetwork 3.0.1 installation Issue on Windows 8.1

I am trying to install geonetworks 3.0.1 on Windows 8.1 by opening the jar
file. installation hangs on the screen right after finishing "Pack
installation progress" and "overall installation progress". I waited for
more than 30 minutes and then killed installation. Any ideas?

Thank you,

Helal

This is known issue https://github.com/geonetwork/core-geonetwork/issues/983
probably related to some incompatibility between recent Windows and the
IZpack installer. BTW the app is properly installed and can be started. The
main issue is that shortcut menu are not setup I think ?

The other option is to use the WAR file for installation.
