Automate Discoverer 4.1 install; Any command line arguments?

I'm working on automating the install of Discoverer 4.1 for use within my company. Does the setup.exe or orainst.exe take any command line arguments? Can it be configured for a default and silent install? Similiar to .msi? or Installshield setup.exes?
Please provide any command lines or arguments or a resource for these.
Thanks,
Chris

I have added the needed languages to Windows, and I
can produce the foreign characters using the keyboard.You can produce the characters in a command console window?
But when I pass strings containing those foreign chars
as command line arguments to a Java application, the
chars are replaced with question marks (\u003f) when I
get them using the args array.
You see the question marks on the console window? Did you actually look at the char value to confirm that the value is 0x003f? Sometimes a font problem will cause ? to display even though the underlying character is still being sent to the console or GUI component.
For instance, in a English Windows XP, I set the input
language to be Japanese. Then, I call my simple
application, which echoes the unicode code for each
char in each command line argument, as well as the
file.encoding, user.region and user.language
properties.
Windows has a couple of active charsets at any point in time: the file and console code page (OEM charset) and its GUI charset (ANSI charset). The file.encoding property reports the ANSI charset, not the OEM charset used in the console and file system.
Try this: set your "system" locale to Japanese as well. This will force the console charset to be 932 as well. Type "chcp" on the console to check what windows thinks the charset is.

Hello
First off - I know next to nothing about adobe air
I'm trying to help a situation created by a developer who was terminated
A video application was developed for us - its name is createVideo.air

My question is:
Is it possible to execute a .air file from a command line?
My server is a LAMP environment running CentOS

Any links, directions or suggestions is appreciated
Thank you for your time and attention

Hi Benn,
You can do this using the Adobe AIR Application Installer. Please check out the command line arguments in our Silent Installation instructions. This document also covers installation of the Runtime and has links to the redistribution agreement if needed.

Is their any command line interface to Oracle App server ?

Hi All,
I am basically from weblogic background and now started using Oracle Server
is their any command line interface to the Oracl application server?
Thanks
Raghavendra

Oracle Application Server is composed of two major parts
A - infrastructure
B - middleTier
each one has diferent components and as consequence different "command line" interfaces (for example, infrastruture as an oracle dabatase bound to it .. )
for each one of these two major parts you have a process that "manages" all other processes/components.
It's "Oracle Process Manager" -> OPMN
you can user OPMN and another command line interfaces to manage oracle application server.
Please Check Documentation, a good start point would be the "application server administrator guide" wich you can find in Application server documentation CD, or online in otn.oracle.com
Best Regards

Error message: "invalid command line argument" while lodaing itunes

I'm trying to load Itunes onto a computer that already has a version of itunes on it. I get a message that says "error: -1639 invalid command line argument" Does anyone know what this means? Does this mean I can't load itunes onto a computer that already has itunes on it?
Also, I was able to load itunes on my laptop, but My ipod Icon is not appearing anywhere, not in itunes, not in explorer, not in my computer. I am, however, able to transfer music automatically when I plug the Ipod into the laptop. I have created several playlists and they have transferred over to the ipod as playlists. Any ideas why I can transfer despite not being recognized anywhere on the computer?
Last thing is, I have plugged the Ipod into three different computers with itunes on them, and the ipod does not show up in the source list.
I'm somewhat perplexed by all of this. Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated

hiya!
"error: -1639 invalid command line argument"
hmmm. folks typically only get that error if they are installing from removable media (such as a CD), although i have seen it happen if someone tries to install into the "recovery partition" of certain makes of PC.
if you download and save an installer to your C drive and run the install from there, do you still get the 1639?

try checking relevant environment variables like the CLASSPATH.... a major source of failures in Windows is when in the classpath there is a path containing SPACES.... also enabling some "debug" or "verbose" flag (not sure how to do it) would provide more insight...

ERROR: -1639 INVALID COMMAND LINE ARGUMENT

Trying to install software for Shuffle that Santa brought and get this error messsage...
"Error: -1639 invalid command line argument. Consult the windows Installer SDK for detailed command line help."
Install stops at this point.
SOMEONE HELP... My kid is chomping at the bit !
Thanks.

Ok I'll do some more searching but I found something in the community forums.
APPSearch can not return this data into a property, so instead, for some unspeakable reason, returns a value of Null, follwed by another Null. This means that the property is created, and populated with two null characters. Bad news if the property also happens to be a PUBLIC property. All public properties are passed as part of the command line sent in a stream to the background installer process by the Execute Action. Since this stream now contains a double null value in a property, the stream is prematurely terminated. This creates an invalid command line, and thus the 1639 error.
This user solved it by using the MSi Cleanup installer util.
EDIT: A little more info...
This problem is almost impossible to detect through the MSI log files since our friends at Microsoft chose to limit the length of any line in the log. It is impossible to get a dump of the full command line that generates this error.
EDIT2:Note that error 1639 only ocurrs when the install package is run from removable media. When the package is run from local storage, the behavior is far more obtuse. The background install process, failing to receive a complete command line, is forced to run as if there had been no UI session, which in turn causes the APPSearch action to run again as if the install was running in silent mode. This causes re-evaluation of all properties a second time, destroying the feature selections made in the UI session, and also forcing the install to run under user credentials instead of elevated, even though AdminUser, ALLUSERS and Privleged properties are set. This is a very serious error that causes total failure of the installation.

Jay,
Your question isn't very clear, hence Joerg's well meaning but irrelevant advise.
Do you mean:
I've written a simple program in java which echos
it's command-line arguments to back to the console.
Here's my code:
package forums;
public class ArgsEchoer
public static void main(String[] args) {
for (String arg : args) {
System.out.println(arg);
But can't figure out how to compile and run the program.
I'm using winblows shista, and it's cr@p.
Please help me, Thanks in advance.So... where are you at? Have you installed the JDK (java development kit)? Which version? Is your path set? Is your classpath set?

Sending varargs via command line arguments to main()

When I put A B C D in the command line arguments textbox in my compiler, the output is as expected: A B C D. However, when I put *new String[]{A, B, C, D}*, the output is *new String[]{A, B, C, D}*, not A B C D as I had expected. My code is below. Any suggestions?
package varargs;
public class Varargs {
    static void printArray(Object...args){
        for (Object obj : args)
            System.out.print(obj + " ");
        System.out.println();
    public static void main(String...args) {
        printArray((Object[])args);
}

The argument(s) that is/are supplied to your main method will be rendered as literal String constants. It looks like you are attempting to use java code as one of your arguments with the expectation that the program will interpret this code. It won't. Your program will simply display whatever it is given even if what you offer as an argument happens to be a construct of the Java language.

How to add command line arguments to shortcuts in the LV8.5.1 installer

I want to create multiple shortcuts to my LV program, each with different command line arguments.
I can do this manually.
I want the installer to generate these shortcuts.
I can add different shortcuts in de installer build specification, but I cannot add commandline arguments in the shortcuts.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Rindert

Hello Forum,
Does anyone have any better data for this? I would also like to create an installer using Labview Project Explorer tool (Build Specification->Installer), and I have a need to create some shortcuts to some EXE's (VS.NET built, not LV) which need to have some arguments passed. I just verified that LV8.6 still does not seem to offer the option of passing arguments when creating shortcuts. Is this correct? Creating stub EXE's or batch files isn't a good option for my project, so I'd like to have someone confirm if LV installer tool can't create shortcuts w/ arguments before I fire up InstallShield.
Regards!

How to pass a command line argument to a jsp file...

Hi guys,
I'm writing a jsp file in which I have some java codes. I want to pass some command line arguments to that jsp file. In other words, I have some files located somewhere on my C drive and I want to pass the path to these files to my jsp file. How can it be done? I have never done before.
Any suggestion will be very hepful...
Thanks....

I dont know if I truly understand your problem...
For instance, when you place the url of your jsp you can add, at the end some parameters. For example:
http://myserver/myapp/myjsp.jsp?MyParameter=C:\Temp\JavaTutorial.html
In your JSP, you can place this code on a scriplet to get the value:
String path = request.getParameter("MyParameter");
Hope it helps.

Problem associated with Command Line arguments

hi ,
I am not able to pass a file path as command line argument in java.
Actually i want to run a java program from the command prompt passing a file path . Something like this i tried to do , but its not working.
D:\VISHAL\src> java CopyFile C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\link.txt
where ,
CopyFile is the name of my class which i am going to run
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\link.txt is the argument.
Can anyone tell me whether a java program accepts an argument like this, if yes please tell me the exact syntax..
Thanks

is there any other way of solving this?Y don't U try it out with the logic as mentioned
below it wud be the case if U r not going with
java CopyFile "C:\Documents and
Settings\Administrator\Desktop\link.txt" 1
String filepath = new String();
for(int i = 0; i < Arg.length; i++)
filepath.append(Arg);
File f = new File(filepath);
What???? This is a non-solution to a non-problem. First of all, you would be constructing a filename without spaces, when the real path contains spaces. Secondly, even if you did insert spaces it would not matter. What if the String (and it does not have to be a filename) contained tabs rather than spaces. The real (and really only) solution to the problem is to put quotes around the argument, for the exact reason stated in my last post.

Read in file name + path using command line arguments

Hi guys,
I am trying to use command line arguments to read in the name of two files. The code below works as long as the files are on the class path.
public class cmdLineArguments {
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          String xmlFile1 = args[0];
                String xmlFile2 = args[1];
          System.out.println ("\nXmlFile1: " + args[0] + "\nXmlFile2: " + args[1]);
}I would like to be able to read files that are not on the class path as well by entering their full path along with their names.
In other words, It works if I type:
C:\Documents and Settings\user\workspace\CmdLineArgs\src>java cmdLineArgs file1.xml file2.xmlbut not if I type:
C:\Documents and Settings\user\workspace\CmdLineArgs\src>java cmdLineArgs c:\Documents and Settings\user\desktop\file1.xml c:\Documents and Settings\user\desktop\file2.xmlWould anyone please explain how I can edit the code to make it work? I guess I could take them both as a String, modify them manually (add a \ to it etc) but is there an easier way to do it? Even a reference to a tutorial, article etc about this would be very much appreciated.
Also, any idea why a code would compile and run fine in Eclipse but would create an error from command line?
Thanks a lot.

You need to learn about cmd.exe which is used to process the command line. The arguments passed to any program is the command line split at white space so your command line arguments of
c:\Documents and Settings\user\desktop\file1.xml c:\Documents and Settings\user\desktop\file2.xmlis turned into an array of
"c:\Documents", "and", "Settings\user\desktop\file1.xml", "c:\Documents", "and", "Settings\user\desktop\file2.xml"In other words instead of 2 arguments you actually have 6.
To get round this the file names need to be quoted
java cmdLineArgs "c:\Documents and Settings\user\desktop\file1.xml" "c:\Documents and Settings\user\desktop\file2.xml"
