Deployment.config ignored?

Ver: 1.5.0_05-b05
I've been trying to set a system cache directory using deployment.config to define a centralised configuration file without success.
It seems as if the deployment.config file is simply not being accessed, as even with deployment.system.config.mandatory set true I don't get an error for an invalid deployment.system.config
Can I get any initialisation information to determine if the process is even looking for the deployment.config file?

What is the content of your deployment.config file ?
the value of the property
deployment.system.config
should be a URL to the systenm config file.
note that this is in a properties file, so certain characters such as color ":" and forward slash must be escaped.

OS X deployment.config and deployment.properties not working?

I have a deployment.config file at: /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home/lib/deploy/deployment.config with the following contents:
deployment.system.config.mandatory=false
deployment.system.config=file\:/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home/lib/deployment.properties
The deployment.properties file is located at: /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home/lib/deployment.properties with the following contents:
#deployment.properties
deployment.macosx.check.update.locked
deployment.macosx.check.update=false
deployment.expiration.check.enabled.locked
deployment.expiration.check.enabled=false
None of this is working. Do I have the wrong directories or syntax somewhere?
The documentation at : System- and User-Level Properties says that the deployment.config file will override user settings when placed at ${deployment.java.home}/lib/deploy/deployment.config.
It seems like the deployment.config file is being ignored completely. I am working with Java 7u40 and higher. Nothing seems to do it.
Any help would be appreciated!! Thanks!

Yeah, it only happened to me in the last couple days, so I'm not sure what's happening (latest OS and latest version of Logitech Control Center (but a somewhat old MX Revolution)). Logitech's software is notoriously flakey on Macs, so I'll just chalk it up to that

Setting system level deployment.user.cachedir in deployment.config

G'day,
I've been experimenting with JRE 1.5.0_04 on Windows XP.
By default deployment.user.cachedir is set to <user home>\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache. However, I want it to be <user home>\Local Settings\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache.
I have managed this as follows.
C:\Windows\Sun\Java\Deployment\deployment.config contains:
deployment.system.config=file\:C\:/WINDOWS/Sun/Java/Deployment/deployment.propertiesand C:\Windows\Sun\Java\Deployment\deployment.properties contains:
deployment.user.cachedir=$USER_HOME\\..\\..\\..\\..\\Local Settings\\Application Data\\Sun\\Java\\Deployment\\cacheThis works but is ugly. The problem is that $USER_HOME=<user home>\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment. It seems that $USER_HOME and $JRE_HOME are the only two variables for use in deployment properties. Are there any others, in particular, one that mirrors the user's actual home directory?
Thanks,
Chris.

G'day,
Open the Java Console and execute "dump system and
deployment properties" which shows property values,
and see if what you want is there.Thanks, but I don't think I can use these at the system level, can I?
I did try using ${user.home} but that doesn't work.
So, are there any variables other than $USER_HOME and $JRE_HOME that can be used when setting system level properties?

Thanks,

Deployment.config/properties All Users dir on Windows

Question about the 2 files deployment.config and deployment.config which can be located in "%WINDIR%\Sun\Java\Deployment" or "%USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment"
Unfortunately the option to specify a new location for the cache is only applicable to the deployment.properties when it's located under the user profile, it doesn't work when specified under the windows directory.
I'm curious as to whether I can place the 2 files under the All Users profile and it would achieve the same result for everyone using the workstation.
Any ideas?

After some testing it seems this is not possible.
However, as long as there is no cached profile on the workstation, placing the files into the "Default User" profile will create them for all subsequent logons. Which is a pretty good fix.

Deployment.config

I am trying to lock down the Java Web Start user-specific configuration settings. All the client PCs are Win2K. After following the instructions found in http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/deployment/deployment-guide/properties.html#location I am unable to get the deployment.config file settings to be effective. I have tried
deployment.system.config=C\:\\WINNT\\Sun\\Java\\Deployment\\deployment.properties
deployment.system.config.mandatory=true
and also pointing the deployment.system.config at a network share. Neither seem to have any effect on the users deployment.properties settings.
If I delete the users deployment.properties file it will then pick up the settings from the C:\WINNT\Sun\Java\Deployment\deployment.properties file the next time Web Start is launched, however the settings are not mandatory (i.e. web start is not using the deployment.config file settings) and the users are able to permanently change their properties settings.
If anyone has gotten this to work and/or has an example of a functioning deployment.config file I would appreciate any help.
Best regards,
Martin M. Graney

Sounds like there is more work needed on these documents.
deployment.system.manditory only requires the file or ulrl deployment.system.config to be found. t does not lock the properties there unless for property:
deployment.xxx=value
there is also the property:
deployment.xxx.locked=anything
Also, there is a bug in the beta1, that a locked property (such as the deployment.xxx above) will be locked to the value of the lock, instead of the value of the property (ie: will be "anything" instead of "value"
so to get it to work right in the 1.5. beta1, you need to say:
deployment.xxx=value
deployment.xxx.locked=value

System level location of deployment.config

According to http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/deployment/deployment-guide/properties.html, the system level deployment.config can be found in one of two locations on windows:
(1) <Windows Directory>\Sun\Java\Deployment\deployment.config
(2) ${deployment.java.home}\lib\deployment.config
The documentation is a bit sketchy as to what determines which location it checks. From my testing, it seems that if you have a JDK installed, it looks for it in (1). If you only have a JRE installed, it looks for it in (2). Can someone confirm this? Secondly, why does WebStart via a JDK install look in one location while WebStart via a JRE look in another? Why can't it simply search in one location?

JRE/JDK makes no difference. Java Web Start is in the JRE, so you actually need a JRE to run javaws.
Webstart will always look first in (1) , and if no deployment.config is found, it will look in the lib directory of the jre that javaws is in. (2)
However, updating a JRE will (until after 6u4) put the new JRE in a new directory, so you would loose any customization done to the old JRE (such as putting a deployment.config in in) so (1) is preferred, unless you want the config to only apply to a specific update version.

JRE 1.6u11: can deployment.config point to a PC location?

I am an Oracle DBA. I need to configure JRE 1.6u11 to use trusted.certs file located on the PC. I can "make it work" if I place the deployment.config file in C:\WINDOWS\Sun\Java\Deployment with it's key, deployment.system.config, pointing to a network location for the deployment.properties file. Deployment.properties file, in turn, then has a key telling where to find trusted.certs, again, in a network location.
But, I am unable to set the key, deployment.system.config to look for deployment.properties in the same directory that deployment.config uses, namely, C:\WINDOWS\Sun\Java\Deployment\deployment.properties. It seems like the key, deployment.system.config is not set up to point to a PC path, because trusted.certs is not found. I read that deployment.system.config is supposed to describe a URL. Writing the path as a URL has not helped (file://C:\WINDOWS\Sun...).
I wish to place these files in a location that is not user-specific. I do not wish to put them on the network.
Do you know why I can't do this, or do you have any suggestions that would make this work?
Thanks for your time.

Turns out I had learned that a file is specified in URL as [file://], but in this case I only needed [file:/]. Once I changed this, everything worked just fine.
My only question now, is since I answered my own question, do I get the points?

Distributing a deployment.config and deployment.properties for proxy settings.

I am trying to define the minimum config required to populate a deployment.properties with just proxy settings and point to this with a deployment.config.
I am finding that that recent versions of 1.7 and 1.8 do not adhere to the browsers settings properly and not all traffic is following the proxy rules in use by the browser. However, if I manually override all traffic to a proxy the applets running on internet based sites function (no intranet sites use java here). If I use a deployment.config, I can see the resulting proxy settings are enabled in the control panel app and the appear exactly the same as per user manual settings, however they are not correctly used.have any ideas?
Any one have any ideas?.
Thanks

Hi Kevin,
I am actually working on the same problem.
I need to deploy Java 1.4.2_07 on clients with a mandatory setup. I tryied the deployment.config and deployment.properties file but didn't get it working yet.
I guess we should share knowledge to find a working solution.
It would be nice, if you could email me at:

Deployment.config when %windir% is M:\Windows not C:\Windows

On my Windows 2003 terminal servers, the C: drive has been remapped to M:
Why doesn't javaws look in M:\WINDOWS\Sun\Java\Deployment for deployment.config and deployment.properties or can it be configured?

According to the documentation, you can put deployment.config in either <Windows Directory>\Sun\Java\Deployment\deployment.config or ${deployment.java.home}\lib\deployment.config. But for some reason it is only the last option that is working, so you must install that for every version of the JRE that the server has installed.
Not the most elegant solution in my opinion.

CLI103 Command 'deploy-config' failed

We are using Sun Java System Web Server 7.0U1 and after removing server certificates from the server I get following error after trying to deploy one certain configuration:
wadm> deploy-config config_name
CLI103 Command 'deploy-config' failed. :: nullAny ideas what might be wrong? In web GUI (Admin Console) there's text saying "Deployment Pending" and delpoying from Admin console fails also.
-Joel-

I removed it from Administration GUI (Configurations > config_name > Certificates > Delete...).
I managed to do the deployment by making empty change and saving /[install_path]/https-config_name/config/server.xml again and deploying configurations from the node.
At the moment the problem is gone but if I get it again I'll post logs in FINE mode here.
Thanks for the help!

1.4.2 using deployment.config and deployment.properties

Can anyone tell me if JRE 1.4.2_06 can use the deployment.config and deployment.properties setting like ver 1.5.0 can?
I have to use 1.4.2_06 and need to have the cache point to a common location (vs per user) and also would like to preset the cache size on an install.
This works perfectly on 1.5.0 however, my app requires 1.4.2.
Can anyone point in a direction?
Thanks
Kevin

Prime 1.3 Perf Mon Deploy Config doesn't work Invalid commands

When I try to deploy configuration to my 6509 or 3750 the template creates the following code. The job fails and when I try to manually input this, the system doesn't recognize it. Is there a minimum ios requirement or another template that will work with my device ios versions?
6509 Version 12.2(33)SXJ4
3750 12.2(55)SE6
flow exporter Exporter1
destination 10.10.10.10
transport udp 9991
class-map match-all class-all
match any
flow monitor type performance-monitor Flow1
record default-rtp
export Exporter1
policy-map type performance-monitor Perf1
class class-all
flow monitor Flow1
interface Vlan 110
service-policy type performance-monitor input Perf1
service-policy type performance-monitor output Perf1

I believe that you are missing the flow record command.
In flexible netflow you need to have 3 things, a flow exporter, a flow record, and a flow monitor.
In your config I see the flow exporter and the flow monitor, but no flow record.
Was the flow record configured previously and that's why its not in your template?
Here is an example of a flow record:
flow record standard
match ipv4 tos
match ipv4 protocol
match ipv4 source address
match ipv4 destination address
match transport source-port
match transport destination-port
match interface input
collect transport tcp flags
collect interface output
collect counter bytes
collect counter packets
collect timestamp sys-uptime first
collect timestamp sys-uptime last

Deployment Wizard ignores package tree

Hi,
I've just started using JDev 3.0 and I've noticed some strange behaviour of the new deployment wizard.
If I specify a package tree to include, but NOT a library or an archive, the package tree is ignored.
I can only get the wizard to pay attention to my package tree if I specify something in the libraries tab and the archive tab.
Is this working as designed?
Has this changed in JDev 3.1??
Thanks,
Lachlan

Hi,
The behavior you are observing is as designed. The Advanced dialog in the deployment wizard is used to configure the dependency analyzer that runs when you are deploying your profile. In general, more specific settings override less specific settings. However, this rule can only be applied to classes that are on the dependency analyzer's classpath. The dependency analyzer's classpath is set through the Libraries and Archives panels,
and the settings on the remaining panels (Package Trees, Single Packages, and Classes) are applied as customizations to the classpath.
Because of this arrangement, specifying "included package trees" doesn't do anything, whether or not you have included any Libraries or Archives. What it is useful for is to override a less specific "excluded package trees" setting. So if you have excluded the package tree "javax" but you include the package tree "javax.accessibility", then only classes within the "javax.accessibility" tree will be included; all other classes in the "javax" tree are excluded. Of course, you would need the Swing classes to be on the dependency analyzer's classpath to begin with for this to apply.
Thus, if you try to include a package tree that isn't on the dependency analyzer's classpath, that package tree won't be included because it was not found. An error message is not printed because not finding a class during dependency analysis is interpreted to mean that the class was excluded; if there really was an error that would cause your class not to run, you should have gotten an error during compilation.

Deploying Config Templates with LMS 4

Hello,
i tried to deploy configuration templates with Cisco LMS Template Center, thanks to the 10 Cool LMS Tricks to better manage your network i am able to do it now.
Just i don't know why, after deploying these templates the configuration is not save to the startup-config.
another problem i have with the snmp-server location configuration. It seems my template does not support spaces in the textbox.
Any way to put spaces in the snmp location?
<parameter name="snmp-location">
<description>SNMP Server Location</description>
<html-component>textbox</html-component>
<default-value></default-value>
<data-type>string</data-type>
<mandatory>true</mandatory>
<isGlobal>false</isGlobal>
<help-description>snmp-server location</help-description>
<syntax>
<min/>
<max/>
<pattern/>
</syntax>
thanks for your feedback.
alex

I filed CSCtr87633 to track the issue with not being able to save the running config to startup. I had thought this was working, but when I used LMS during CiscoLive!, I had a lot of jobs running, and part of the work involved a Netconfig deployment that also took care of the write mem.
For the space thing, try this template.

Workflow Manager 1.0 : Microsoft.Workflow.Deployment.Config Wizard stopped working

Hi Siva,
Please "run as Administrator" on the workflow configuration wizard, see if it could work.
If above doesn't work, please check workflow management log for troubleshooting.
