Description Len DiMaggio 2013-09-23 11:47:04 EDT

Description of problem:

The issue involves how we change the installed system slot definition. The error reported to the user is:

The product.conf file at <dir path> doesn't contain the expected value for an EAP installation. Please supply either an empty directory or an EAP installation.

The change is intentional - but we should at least document this for the user.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.0.0.ER3

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install ER3
2. Attempt to install over the same dir
3.

Actual results:

Documenting the supported / unsupported installations is required.

Comment 3 Thomas Hauser 2013-12-12 11:14:07 EST

The installer will now give an error message detailing the reason why an installation fails. 

Example:

FSW cannot be layered with FSW and EAP (installing on top of itself.)

Verified in ER7.
