Automatic/Silent install only 4 components of JES, on Windows

From setup.bat we have: Windows\setup.exe /v"/Liwrmoeau! %temp%\SUNJavaES.log MAINJES=Yes" %1 %2 %3
Is it possible to 'automatically' select /install only 4 components : Directory Server, Administration Server, Web Server and Access Manager?
Automatic configuration is very good.
Maybe instead of MAINJES=YES we can pass other options.
Or maybe it is possible to have a config file ...
What we try is to have a 'faster' installation and configuration of JES, with less clicks from the user.
Many thanks in advance.

I'm glad you like the automatic configuration :)
You can automate your specific scenario using the 'silent install' mode
http://docs.sun.com/source/819-1652/instsilent.html
Basically you want to run the installer in a 'record' mode and select
the config options and products that you care about. In your case, you would choose, 'Custom -> Configure Automatically -> select the subset of products' you want. once you are done, the response file will be created which you can (edit if needed) use for subsequent installs

Fully automatic silent install of 1.4.2_10

We're using Citrix Webinterface 4.0 with Citrix Java Client for remote access users (working at home). This works fine with Java 1.4.2_10. It does NOT work with MS Java VM or Java 1.5.x. So we need to ensure employees have Java 1.4.2_10 installed at their home pc's. We do not have administrative control over these pc's. Therefore we need to push the Java 1.4.2_10 software from the same webpage as their Citrix Webinterface login.
QUESTION: I would like to create a hyperlink on the Webinterface login page where users can click to FULLY AUTOMATICALLY download and SILENTLY install the Java 1.4.2_10 software (and NOT the Java 1.5.x which is (non-silently) available at http://www.java.com/nl/download/ie_auto.jsp !!!!!)
How can this be accomplished?
Any help is much appreciated

Silent install switches for iTunes 10 for Windows

I want to do large scale silent installations of iTunes 10 for Windows.
I also don't want iTunes it to automatically run, once the install has finished.
I'm using the /quiet /passive switches.
The program seems to install without a problem, but when it tries to automatically run it gives an error message.
Apple Application Support was not found.
Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again.
Error 2 (Windows error 2)
I'm not sure how to automatically install Apple Application Support, which would presumably solve the error message problem.

Hi Gold. AppDeploy is probably the place to check, although digging through for the relevant information is going to be a trial. here's a link to their 9.x page, but the other version information from version 7.x may be relevant too.
EDIT: sorry, forgot the link:

Silent install Premiere Elements 10, 32 and 64-bit

I found the article on how to do a silent install of Premiere Elements 10 at http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-elements/kb/silent-install-instructions-premiere-elements- 4.html
My question is how do I combine the 32 and 64-install files, or do I? I have an x86 folder for the 32bit, and x64 for the 64bit versions of Premiere Elements. Each has a PRE 10 and ReadMe folders. Can I combine these folders together, so both 32 and 64-bit versions are all in one PRE 10 folder? It would appear that some files would be overwritten, although most appear to be identical, so not sure how important that is.
Also, can you clarify the setup and location of the optional content folder. I have a folder called "PRE 10 Content" that has several subfolders such as "Adobe Premiere Elements 10 Content 1" and "Adobe Premiere Elements 10 HD Content 1" etc. My understanding is the top level folder should be renamed Templates, but I seem to be getting stuck as to exactly which folder that is. Should the set up be PRE 10\Templates\PRE 10 Content\Setup.exe.
Or, are the installers for 32 and 64-bit versions of Premiere Elements meant to be separate from each other?
Thanks,
Sir_Timbit

John T. Smith's input sounds sound, there may be one block in pursuing that suggestion.
I would agree with John T. Smith that Adobe is the one to sort out its Adobe Tech document for you if it will. It often restricts its assistance if the matter does not relate to purchased/registered/current version. And, Premiere Elements is not the current version.
Have you contacted Adobe about this matter and been refused help for the reason that I referred to?
And, out of curiosity, I would ask "Does the following apply to you?
Only Enterprise customers can perform the following procedures to silently install Adobe Premiere Elements 10 on Windows with an Adobe volume license (AVL).
What computer are you using and how many installation discs do you have?
Adobe is indeed your first choice, maybe your only choice, on this if it will help you with version 10.

Command Line Parameters for Silent Install with Status for BI4.0 Products

For the XI3.1 product installations, which clearly leveraged MSIEXEC installation files, it was possible to use the /qb+ command line parameter to trigger a silent install which showed the progress of the installation with a final prompt to acknowledge the completion of the installation.
For the new BI4.0 installation package, it's not clear how to trigger a silent installation which also shows the installation progress. The installation guide describes using -q in the command line to run a silent installation, or leveraging a response.ini file to trigger a silent install, but in neither case does it show how to modify the silent installation command to enable a display of the installation progress.
Does anyone know the syntax, either command line or embedded in a response.ini file, to trigger a silent installation for the BI4.0 products which ALSO shows the progress of the installations?
Thanks,
Josh

Yes, I've tried the same switch that I used for the XI3.1 installations, namely "/qb". In XI3.1 I was able to use this switch either directly in the MSIEXEC command line or in the Response.ini file as "QUIET=/qb". In either case, this switch resulted in a silent install that showed a progress bar window for the installation, completing with a confirmation prompt indicating that the installation had completed.
Neither approach works with the BI4.0 installation packages. My suspicion is that SAP has switched to a different installation engine as I can't find the typical .msi installation files that would indicate this is a MSIEXEC installation. I'm hoping someone knows what type of installation engine is being used and what the switching syntax is for silent installs. But it can't be a completely transparent silent install (I know how to do this); it must provide an option to show an installation progress bar.
Thanks,
Josh

Installing Only 1 or 2 Components From CS4 Premiere Pro

I'm moving my premiere pro over to an older macbook. The macbook only has 1G RAM, so I'm getting the installer alert when entering setup, and since I have Safari 4 installed, the alert box is blank. This means I have no easy way to continue anyway, and install only the programs I need.
I only want to select a couple of programs to install on this machine, and the requirements are met for those.
Is there a way to do this?
Would it help if I downgraded to an earlier version of safari? Are earlier versions even available now?
Thanks for the help.

Safari 5 was released today.

Silent Install using ResponseFile for Windows XP

Hi,
Does anyone know or have any custom responseFile that works? I have tried many times to do a custom install using the clientcustom.rsp from the CD and also from record mode but not all components seems to install correctly eventhough the log said it installed successfully. Especially the Oracle Universal Installer component.

How to do a silent install of NI-DAQ 7.3.1?

I want to do a minimal silent install of NI-DAQ 7.3.1. I have found a few references, but none seem quite to provide all the information I need. Summary of my reasearch so far:
In these two threads (thread 1, thread 2) a user asks the same question as me, but for some reason the NI Applications Engineer just stops responding to the users' questions, although he does provide some information.
How to do install only particular features to install is specified for pre-6.9.0 in this knowledgebase entry, and this text file shows which components that are needed for specific features, but still only for pre-6.9.0.
Another knowledgebase entry explains how to specify individual components for 6.9.3 and up, but lacks information on which components (msi installers) that are needed for specific features.
Also this knowledgebase entry, which describes how to initiate the DAQ installer after your own installer, is very helpful.
In summary, I need information similar to that provided in the text file mentioned above on which parts of the full NI-DAQ 7.3.1 installation that are needed to install "just the NI-DAQ drivers" or "the NI-DAQ drivers and LabView 6.1 support files" etc.
Martin

Hello MartinManscher
The KB entry you mentioned shows three different specfiles. Try to scroll through the one for NI-DAQ 7.2 where each feature is explained in more details.
You have not mentioned if you are installing traditional DAQ or DAQmx?!
You should just install the root for the DAQ driver and then the support for the LAbVIEW version and the root for MAX...
Hope this helps you.
Regards
Mohadjer

Silent Install of JRE 1.4.2_02

I am having trouble running a silent install of the JRE. I've referenced the following document, but have not had any luck. http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/plugin/developer_guide/silent.html
The command I attempted to use is:
j2re-1_4_2_02-windows-i586-p.exe /s /v
Is this not the correct format? I tried many different versions of the command based on the silent install document, none worked. I still get prompted to accept the install.
http://java.sun.com/products/archive/j2se/1.4.2_02/jre/install-windows.html

I would like to execute a silent install of other java components, namely the Java Advanced Imaging package. I have tried a combination of the arguments to the .exe installers, but it only seems to unpackage to the temp directory, which gets deleted 30 seconds later and nothing gets installed.
I can't really provide an .iss file, because the install location may change. So, I'd like to be able to provide all the necessary info at the command-line. Below is my command-line, anyone see anything overtly wrong?
C:\Projects\thirdparty\jai\jai-1_1_2-lib-windows-i586-jdk.exe -a /s /v"/qn ADDLOCAL=ALL NETSCAPE6=1 MOZILLA=1 IEXPLORER=1 INSTALLDIR=%JAVA_HOME%/jre REBOOT=Suppress"
Notes:
If I don'g provide the -a option, it ignores the silent option and the install gui is displayed anyway.
JAVA_HOME environment variable is currently set.
Thanks.

How to create a silent install without firstlaunch and autoupdate enabled

Its been asked numerous times but I cant find an answer in these forums or via search. I want to create an admin install for Blackberry Desktop Manager 7.1. RIM publishes a guide for creating a silent install but not a useful guide for turning off the autoupdate feature. Their answer, basically, is to regedit the HKCU keys to disable autupdate. However, These keys do not exist until after the user logins and runs the desktop manager for the first time.
How can these keys be incorporated during the initial install? I attempted to create an MST with orca however, contrary to to RIM's silent install guide you can't run the msi directly, rather you have to use the setup.exe to kick off the msi.
Has anyone had any luck creating the mst? What lines in the msi do you edit to create the mst? And finally, how do you run the install with the mst in command line?
Considering that the largest user base for blackberries are enterprise environments RIM really needs to make a more admin friendly install with proper documentation. While our hate does make us stronger, **bleep** off the IT crowd will only further fuels the push to other devices.

The steps you followd seem right, the only thing however that is missing is when you add the channel with provider class name. The channel gets added only for the domain, it does not automatically perculate to all roles and users below if the user has customized his settings. You would have to enable the option Apply changes to all roles and sub roles for the user to inherit this, however if you have made any specific changes for the user that will get over written by the domain values when you select the option apply changes to all roles and sub roles.

Silent install of SQL Server 2008r2 for ALL users?

We ship an installer that does a silent install of SQL Server 2008r2 with all the 'right' parameters pre-configured. We use this:
/QS /INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER /ACTION=Install /FEATURES=SQL,BC,Conn,ADV_SSMS /SAPWD=MyPasswordGoesHere /SECURITYMODE=SQL /TCPENABLED=1 /ADDCURRENTUSERASSQLADMIN /SQLSVCSTARTUPTYPE=Automatic /SQLSVCACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" /AGTSVCACCOUNT="NT
AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS
However, the problem is that if a tech installs it for another user, that user does not have access, since ADDCURRENTUSERASSQLADMIN flag only adds the user who installed it -- rather than adding ALL users on the computer. (Or at least all admins.)
I tried replacing ADDCURRENTUSERASSQLADMIN with this:
/SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS="BUILTIN\ADMINISTRATORS"
but that also failed to work. How can we install for all users, or at least all administrators?
NOTE: we do NOT know the name of the computer or the users. The installer has to work for any computer setup.
Similar question has already been asked, but wasn't helpful:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/8354675f-be9b-4909-b776-942f03954807/how-to-do-a-silent-install-of-sql-2010-express-for-all-users-on-a-computer?forum=sqlexpress
The documentation does not make it clear what you can pass as allowed SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS parameters. I also am not sure if I would need to change the AGTSVCACCOUNT or SQLSVCACCOUNT?

I tried one more thing:
/SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS="BUILTIN\Administrators"
which does not halt installation with an error.
However, doing:
osql -E
create database test
go
in a command prompt from a different admin user on the same machine results in a permissions error... but works if done from a command prompt on the user account from which MSSQLServer was installed.
So for some reason /SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS="BUILTIN\Administrators" does not work as expected.
Anyone have any idea why?
I checked the output log from the install, and found it had generated and used a configurationFIle to do the install. I looked in that file, and these were the settings, even though I did NOT pass /ADDCURRENTUSERASSQLADMIN as a command line option:
; Windows account(s) to provision as SQL Server system administrators.
SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS="BUILTIN\Administrators"
; The default is Windows Authentication. Use "SQL" for Mixed Mode Authentication.
SECURITYMODE="SQL"
; Provision current user as a Database Engine system administrator for SQL Server 2008 R2 Express.
ADDCURRENTUSERASSQLADMIN="True"

11g R2 -silent install: "Template General_Purpose.dbc does not exist"

Fortunately, a thorough review of the install actions log provides what appears to be my problem.
The screen output I receive is as follows (I've added some line breaks to make it more readable):
(oracle@blade2-1 database)$ cd /opt/oracleStagingArea/Oracle11gR2/11.2.0.1.0/Disk1/database
(oracle@blade2-1 database)$ ./runInstaller -silent -responseFile /home/oracle/ResponseFiles/11gR2/ORCL11GD_enterprise_11201.rsp

You can find the log of this install session at:
/u01/app/oracle/oraInventory/logs/installActions2009-09-14_01-25-28PM.log
That's it - no indication as to whether the installation was successful or failed or whether the NETCA/DBCA/etc. were successful or not.
I found that a listener existed after the install:
(oracle@blade2-1 database)$ ps -ef | grep tns
oracle 22597 1 0 13:29 ? 00:00:00 /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1/bin/tnslsnr LISTENER -inherit
My instance didn't appear to be up, though:
(oracle@blade2-1 database)$ ps -ef | grep ORCL11GD
oracle 22776 19142 0 13:39 pts/0 00:00:00 grep ORCL11GD
So, I checked the /u01/app/oracle/oraInventory/logs/installActions2009-09-14_01-25-28PM.log to see what it revealed. It shows me the following for the DBCA:

I don't see a template named "General_Purpose.dbc" in the $ORACLE_HOME/dbca/templates directory:
(oracle@blade2-1 database)$ cd /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1/assistants/dbca/templates

Any suggestions would be welcomed!

Hans: None at all, unfortunately.
Srini: I obtained a copy of the note and read through it. It does look as though I should be able to run the DBCA in -silent mode to create a template, so no GUI needed. Thanks again!
On a side note: Did anybody else notice the "General_Purpose.dbc" template missing from the $ORACLE_HOME/dbca/templates directory after an 11g R2 software install on RHEL 5.3? I'm beginning to suspect that not all components were installed as expected during the software installation. the oraInstall<Date/Time>.err file is full of errors such as the following:
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /opt/oracleStagingArea/Oracle11gR2/11.2.0.1.0/Disk1/database/stage/Components/oracle.rdbms.install.seeddb/11.2.0.1.0/1/DataFiles/filegroup2.jar (No such file or directory)
All of these errors are complaining about only the following 4 compoments:
- oracle.ctx
- oracle.sysman.console.db
- oracle.owb.rsf
- oracle.rdbms.install.seeddb
Upon investigation, I found that there is no oracle.ctx, oracle.sysman.console.db, oracle.owb.rsf, or oracle.rdbms.install.seeddb under /opt/oracleStagingArea/Oracle11gR2/11.2.0.1.0/Disk1/database/stage/Compoments. Instead, the grouping is located under /opt/oracleStagingArea/Oracle11gR2/11.2.0.1.0/Disk2/database/stage/Components.
It seems that I may have staged the media incorrectly in two separate directories. Should I have unzipped both files into the same directory instead of separating them out?

Deplyoing J2SE SDK using silent install

Hi,
for a software application that generates java code after deployment we need to install the SDK with our software package. I found the instructions for the silent installation for the runtime environment, but they apparently do not work for the SDK. I use this command line:
j2sdk-1_4_2-windows-i586.exe /s /v"/qn /L D:\Web6020\setup.log ADDLOCAL=ALL IEXPLORER=1 INSTALLDIR=D:\Web6020 REBOOT=Suppress JAVAUPDATE=0 WEBSTARTICON=0 CUSTOM=1"
The log file claims that the installation was successful, but this installation does not install half the things that the standard, guided installation places in the designated folder.
Can this approach of a silent install be used for the SDK in the same way as for the runtime only ? If yes, what needs to be changed in the above command in order to get the full SDK installed with runtime and everyhting ?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I'm packaging the JRE 5.0 Update 8 client for our Windows XP SP2 desktops. I need to disable the update feature in the Java client. I packaged the previous version (5.0 Update 6) and disabled the autoupdate without any problems, but for some reason, it isn't working the same in Update 8.
The problem is, after I install the client while attempting to disable the autoupdate, if I open the Java Control Panel (if I leave the tray icon enabled) the Update tab is still there and the "Check for Updates Automatically" box is still checked and the following registry entry is set:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Update\Policy
EnableJavaUpdate = 1
I've read the doc... http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/deployment/deployment-guide/silent.html . I've tried installing it with several different options, including:
jre-1_5_0_08-windows-i586-p-s.exe /s /v"/qb-! IEXPLORER=1 REBOOT=Suppress JAVAUPDATE=0 AUTOUPDATECHECK=0 JU=0 SYSTRAY=0"
I also tried taking the .msi that's created in %temp% when you run jre-1_5_0_08-windows-i586-p-s.exe and applying a .mst that I created and setting the public properties (IEXPLORER, REBOOT, JAVAUPDATE, JU, UPDATECHECK and SYSTRAY) in the Property table of the mst.
Neither the command line switches or the .mst I created work.
How can I completely disable the update and remove the Update tab?
Thank you in advance.
