ORDS silent install prompts for "location to store configuration data"

AoifeJan 10 2020 — edited Jan 10 2020

I'm trying to script an ORDS (version 19.2.0.199.1647) silent install in an environment where stdin is a tty. When it tries to run:

java -jar ords.war install --parameterFile path/to/ords_params.properties

ords.war prompts "Enter the location to store configuration data" on stdin. If stdin is not a tty, an exception is thrown:

Is there a way to do an ORDS install without any prompts or requiring stdin be a tty?

Thanks!
