Description Petr Kremensky 2013-11-27 14:15:09 UTC
Description of problem:
 Post-install configuration output may get after Shortcuts creation panel. This may confuse the user as he can overlook the probe and get lost in installation. Shortcuts creation should be always after any string generated by post-install configuration task.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
 EAP 6.2.0.CR3.1

How reproducible:
 Always

Steps to Reproduce:
This might be a little bit harder to reproduce, as this is actually the only case I can see the issue so far.
 1. Start the console installation
 2. Use default values unless asked for Post-Install Configuration
 3. Choose to Perform additional post-install configuration.
 4. Select to "Install JDBC driver" and Install datasource from post-install options.
 5. Choose any of vendors, and enter path to Driver's jar. Use default values for the rest of configuration options.
 6. Observer the installer output after post-install configuration is done.

Actual results:
...
Trying to connect to Management Interface...(1/5).
Connected to Management Interface.
{"outcome" => "success"}
Application Server successfully stopped.
Create shortcuts in the Start-Menu (y/n) [y]:
The connection to the controller has been closed as the result of the shutdown operation.
(Although the command prompt will wrongly indicate connection until the next line is entered)

Expected results:

I could not emulate the issue, but I added a check to ensure the server has finished shutting down before proceeding. I think this issue could also occur on linux, depends on chance and speed of machine. Seems to be a threading issue.
