JVR,
I do not recommend creating an answer file with "vim". As Sathyan suggested below, you should create
it using the -n option of the installer (<name of Glassfish distribution> -n filename). You can then edit the
file to point to a specific location if you like. Then run the installer with the -a option in silent mode
(<name of Glassfish distribution> -a filename -s).
This should work for you. The other alternative of course is to use the "zip" version as it comes preconfigured
and ready to go.
