Install my application in one step

I am finishing my application and I am looking after my users.
How can I distribute my application in one step?
First of all I have to consider that I am using the javacomm2 that needs
to copy some files into the bin and lib jre directories.(not so much users can do it)
Second I packed all my code in a jar file (manifest included),
�how can I create a link into Windows menus?
I want for my users a one step (and cheep) way of getting my product.
Thanks in advance

I think what you need is installshield. Please try it on www.google.com

Install my program in one step

I am finishing my application and I am looking after my users.
How can I distribute my application in one step?
No all computers have a VM already installed.

I have tried both of the ones mentioned. IzPack will not put links in the start menu. InstallAnywhere will and also there is a version called Now! which is free.
For what you are doing though you might try webstart from Sun which is also available free. If you are only deploying on Windows there is also the Nullsoft installer which is free at http://www.nullsoft.com/free/nsis/

How could I completely get rid of application in ONE step?

Say I installed 10 apps from the phone, in the next sync w/ computer, they got sync'ed into my iTunes. After a few days I deleted 5 of them from the phone, but they showed up again after the next sync -- they were copied from the computer back to the phone.
The only way I have found out to do the deletion in one step is to delete apps from iTunes program "while iPhone is connected", that is a pain in the butt because I usually only sync it once every 2-3 weeks. Every time I sync, I need to spend a lot of tiem cleaning those apps which were deleted on the phone, from iTunes program.
Is there any way I can setup my iPhone or my iTunes, so that an app will be considered DELETED when I do that from the phone?

Here's what you want to do:
1. In iTunes (with your iPhone plugged in), choose your iPhone under Device on the left.
2. Click Applications Tab
3. Choose Sync Applications and Selected Applications
(If you choose All Applications, you will get the behavior you don't want)
Now when you delete an APP from your iPhone, it will remain in iTunes, but will be unchecked
from the list and will not be put back on the iPhone when you sync.
Viola!

Installing multiple applications through one application (or package)

I am trying to make an application (or package) that will install multiple programs through the one application. Right now the only way I can see to do this, is to force an application to install another one as a requirement. The easiest example
I can give is iTunes. We customize the iTunes install to lock down features and not install every application that isn't needed in our environment. So technically iTunes actually installs 5 different programs. I need to be able to select
iTunes during an OSD deployment using the MDT UDI Wizard, and it will install iTunes and anything needed for it to work correctly.
I am just using iTunes as an easy example to explain. We have other programs that work in a similar way, or require other applications to be install. My main reason for this request is we have standard engineering applications, but I don't want
them installed on all computers, I want just one option that will in turn install all the standard applications.
I am guessing what I will have to do, is make one install that requires the previous application and installs it, and do that for each application, but this doesn't seam like a good solution as it means I will have to have a separate application only for
this OSD problem.
Is there an easier/correct way of doing this, mainly for OSD?
Thank you,

Dependencies only forces the box to be checked, it doesn't install it in the correct order. We are having another problem in that area. We have an Office add-on that in SC requires a version of office to be installed. We can't set the dependency
for that add-on since we have multiple versions of office, but even if a version of office is selected, it doesn't try to install it before it tries to install the add-on. So the add-on install ends up failing since office isn't installed when it tries
to install, even though it installs afterwards.
This is why I am not considering using dependencies since I can't get it to install in the correct order. If there is a way to enforce the when something gets installed, then yes, this would work for me.

How can I install an Application on one of my other Hard Drives?

I would like to know how I can install Applications on one of my other hard drives. I find that when I go to install an Application, the main hard drive shows up allowing me to install it. The other hard drives show as unable to install Application. What am I missing? Thanks.

A system is what is missing as the installer looks for a valid folder, and may need to install support files in /Library as well.

Install from application catalog via a script

Does anyone know of a way to script the equivalent of clicking install for an application in the application catalog? Just a thought that although users can install applications from the application catalog themselves, I can see a situation where perhaps
an exec or VIP needs a list of applications but will never go through the app catalog with hundreds of apps or more to find selected apps and install them, so one idea is for a tech to be able to run a script that will install one or more apps back to back
via script for this VIP user. So basically a script that mimics clicking install next to an app in the catalog.
I know I can also target the user with required deployments of all those apps but trying to get out of that business of deploying individual apps to individual users or devices. I would expect the majority of users to be able to use the app catalog
but want to have options for the small percentage that will not.

@Mitch35
I think I understand what you're after, and let me give you a few ideas for consideration.
1. It sounds like you probably were doing machine based collections in ConfigMgr 2007, and then adding each machine with a direct membership rule to a collection that already had the package advertised (mandatory) to it. This is how
many organizations did "on demand" installation of software through ConfigMgr 2007. This method will still work in System Center 2012 ConfigMgr, however, as you note, it's cumbersome and time consuming.
2. You have a couple of ways that you can potentially get your list of applications down to something manageable. First - it sounds like you won't need to have all 10,000 applications made available in the catalog to all your users. The
application catalog isn't just a big global list of all the applications in your library that's shown to users. Rather, the list of applications shown for any user is only the list of applications that matter to their job role, function, department,
division, group, etc. You get to control that list by using user collections. I know in ConfigMgr 2007, since you were likely using machine collections, this is a bit of a mental shift, but hopefully an easy one to transition to.
3. Start by thinking about what collections of users will need these applications, and build your collections that way. If you manage Distribution Groups for these groups of users already in AD, then it's pretty straightforward to just build
a collection with that DG as a member. Now, you have a mirror in ConfigMgr of your DG membership from which you can use to limit the applications shown in the catalog to members of that DG. Or, you can just use ConfigMgr collections and add the
users to the user collections as necessary to have them see the applications in the catalog. My guess is that you'll just want to consolidate on one method to add users to some grouping mechanism (not both AD and ConfigMgr) but that's going to be
up to your business practices.
4. Let's consider your executives. How do they get an application requested today? Do they call a special help desk person? Do they have an assistant do it? Their entry point into "requesting software" is your key to helping them
out. A help desk person, or an assistant can cut/paste a link from the catalog and put it into an e-mail, and the executives can just click the link in the e-mail to go to the application details page directly. From there, they can install the
application with one click. Or, someone can show them how to search the catalog for their application. You can also create a shortcut for the Exec's to get to the catalog, and they might be just fine using the catalog if they know how easy it is to search
for an install software. It'll be new for them, but how many already have smartphones and install software on their phone? Probably a lot, and hopefully the leap to using the catalog for their system isn't a problem.
5. You're worried about the executives searching through hundreds (or more) of applications in the catalog, but remember that the catalog allows categorization, and searching by description and keyword. I could see where you might tie those together
in such a way as to make it easy for the executive to see a small list of apps because they're in collections that really only contain the "business apps" necessary (e.g. they probably don't need to install a bunch of marketing LOB apps, or shipping department
apps), and you might be able to even add a keyword such as "Exec" or "SLT" (meaning Senior Leadership Team) or something like that to help them search in the application catalog and get a very small list of applications quickly.
6. Your other consider is the "new machine" scenario. Someone gets a computer, and they need to have the "top 15 apps" installed on their system. Again, leverage the application catalog metadata (keywords, categories and description fields)
to help users find what they're looking for quickly. You could create a "Common Desktop Apps" category. That might contain 50 apps, but remember that the list of apps shown to any one user is only the list that has deployments for any collections
the user is a member of. So, even though there might be 50 apps in your "Common Desktop Apps" category, any one user might only see 15 or 20.
7. The catalog doesn't support the ability to select several applications, and then install all at once. That's some feedback that we've heard customers would like the ability to do, but it's not currently in System Center 2012 Configuration Manager.
So, if you want to go the route of enabling this functionality, you'll need to write your own application catalog with that capability. We have an updated revision of the SDK that was posted recently, but unfortunately, we don't yet have the application catalog
API's documented. It will be a little while until we're able to get that documentation out. I'd suggest you take a look at the targeting and categorizations and keyword options that you have to make it easier for your users to find what they're
looking for in the catalog.
Hope this helps,
Dave

URL one step behind application navigation

I hereby bring this topic up again. It seems that this is no problem anymore to the mass of the users, but I haven't found a final solution, yet. The URL shown in the browser window does not reflect the actual rendered page, but the previous one. Adding the <redirect/> tag causes a violation of the underlaying DTD.
My users have trouble bookmarking the right pages, since the URL is always one step behind.
Bookmarking is just a minor problem, but can anyone tell me a final solution to the problem ?
Thanks in advance

Thank you very much for your reply.
It gave me the hint that theer might still be a missplaced <redirect/> tag. In my large faces-config.xml I missed a <redirect/> outside the navigation-case.
Thanks

Need help on installing Oracle Application express 3.2

Hi,
I had downloaded Oracle 11g database and installed the personal edition.I got the Enterprise manager login page working and also the DBConsole
I had Downloaded APEX 3.2 and wanted to install apex 3.2.I wanted to do the following scenario
Scenario 3: Install from the Database and Configure the Embedded PL/SQL
Gateway
Planning to do these steps: ( I have few questions on these steps and are below each step)
■ Running the apxconf.sql Configuration Script
Do I have to install Oracle Application express or is it already installed in 11g personal edition?
Do I have to create a seperate database or schema for this step( I have only one instance orcl1) ?■ Verifying the Oracle XML DB HTTP Server Port
Can I do this step in my current orcl1 instance,if so which user■ Enabling Oracle XML DB HTTP Server
Once I carry out these steps, Can I access the admin page for apex with https://localhost:port/apex_admin ?
Am I missing any other steps ?
Thanks

I have one idea..
Try to install again:
1) download and unzip apex_3.2 in $ORACLE_HOME
You will have:
$ORACLE_HOME/apex - old directory
$ORACLE_HOME/apex_3.2 - new directory
2) in command line go to $ORACLE_HOME/apex_3.2/apex
run sqlplus "/as sysdba"
in sqlplus run @apexins tablespace_apex tablespace_files tablespace_temp images
Where:
tablespace_apex is the name of the tablespace for the Oracle Application Express application user.
tablespace_files is the name of the tablespace for the Oracle Application Express files user.
tablespace_temp is the name of the temporary tablespace.
images is the virtual directory for Oracle Application Express images. To support future Oracle Application Express upgrades, define the virtual image directory as /i/.
Example:
@apexins SYSAUX SYSAUX TEMP /i/
3) check installation log for errors
4) in command line go to $ORACLE_HOME/apex_3.2/apex
run sqlplus "/as sysdba"
in sqlplus run @apxconf
set admin password
set port
5) run @apxldimg.sql $ORACLE_HOME/apex_3.2
6) check for running listener and try to login apex: http:\\host:port\apex\apex_admin
Good luck!

Error in installing Apple Application Support preventing installation of iTunes, please help

I am trying to install iTunes for Windows (64 bit) but have been unsuccessful because I receive the following error message: "Microsoft.VC80.CRT,type+"win32",version="8.0.50727.6195"publicKeyToken="1fc8b3 b9a1e18e3b",processorArchitecture="x86". Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT:0x80070BC9.
After receiving this error message the installation continues, but iTunes is never able to launch because it says that Apple Application Support is not installed. I have tried separately installing Apple Application Support only to receive the same error message as above. Please advise on how I can install iTunes properly or what this error message means.

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if Apple Application Support won't install normally.

Deploying Oracle Express and Java Application in one installation

Is there a way to deploy a Java application using Oracle express as the back end in one installation? So in other words, rather than installing oracle express separately from the application, we are looking to install from one executable including both the java application and all the necessary components for oracle express to run.
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Mahmoud

Hello,
you can install the database using a response file. Depending on the installer of your Java application you could create a kind of meta-installer that creates a response file for the database as well as one response/parameter file for your application installer and hence run both in one step.
See the [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18802/toc.htm#BABCCGCF]corresponding section of the Installation Guide for details on the response file.

Installing iPhone application to device

when installing my application (directly from mac book to device) on my ipod touch i get following error:
"your mobile device has encountered an unexpected error 0XE800003A during the install phase: verifying application"
i have absolutly no clue why this error is caused.
there is a point in the documentation i dont really understand.
what is meant by the following:
To run your code on an Apple device, you will need to install iPhone OS onto each development device and "restore" each
device to a development state.
how do i restore my device to a development state. it says i need to download an os from the iphone dev center. my problem is i cant find the download. am i blind, can someone plz send me a link. and is it at all necessary to install a different os?
btw. the error in the device console is:
Wed Oct 8 21:41:42 unknown securityd[183] <Error>: mobile_installat[191] SecItemCopyMatching: missing entitlement

thx for any help and suggestions.

I think I'm in a similar bind, but a step or two behind.
I just bought an imac to try and get an external developer's build working.
I've gone through the whole certificate process. One thing that is completely puzzling me is that when I connect the device with Xcode loaded, it doesn't detect anything. Nothing shows in Organizer as it says it should. The only way I could find the device was through iTunes. But it seems like I should just be able to plug the phone in and it will find it.
So I can't get to the part where I actually install the SDK on the phone, or get the prompt to use it as a development device. Am I missing something here?
Any help would be great.

Please install Apple Application Support

Hello everyone,
I need some help here because every time I try to open up iTunes or try to open up Quicktime I keep getting this annoying error message which states "Please install Apple Application Support." As an alternative I can run my personal Quicktime movie files and iTunes music using Windows Media Player but when it comes to watching my purchased iTunes Movies or TV Shows its a NO GO most likely because they are encrypted and can only be authorized through a Apple product which puts me in a predicament of a) Not being able to watch my movie or TV purchases from iTunes, b) Not having the ability to access iTunes to purchase episodes of my favorite TV shows and movies when they become available. I've already gone to the Apple Support site and followed the instructions to completely uninstalled iTunes and Quicktime (In that order) and then reinstalled them (In that order) but I keep getting this same error message so If anyone can provide assistance ASAP I'd really... really... appreciate it.

Cannot install Adobe Application Manager

When I install this, I first get an error saying another instance is already running. The installation then proceeds and goes through the motions installation but at the then, I get an error saying "Adobe Application Manager failed to install". I've combed through my Windows Task Manager for things like "PDApp.exe" and "setup.exe" but I couldn't find any. I have a bazillion processes running and I don't have time to go through each one trying to figure out which is the right one. How do I install the Application Manager? It seems like all the CC apps needs the updated version of Adobe Application Manager in order to install.

Problem resolved. I called the 800 # and spoke with a technical support person in India. The steps to resolve were to rename the directory paths (2 of them) that pointed to the old Adobe Application Manager, then download the Adobe Cleaner Tool and use it to remove the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop App. I logged off and then logged back in and re-downloaded the Creative Cloud Application manager and I was able to download (finally) Photoshop CC.
The old Adobe Application Manager came with my CS6 installation. It was probably running but it did not show up in the Windows Task Manager as either an application, process, or service. It also could be be uninstalled through Control Panels without having to remove CS6 altogether.

Can't install Pro Application Support 3.0 onto 10.3.9

Topic says it all, sort of. DL'd Pro Application Support 3.0 to install on a Mirrored Drive Doors ("Wind-tunnel") G4 running 10.3.9, which appears to have stabilized on aninstall of 10.3.9, QT still at 6.5.2. Nogo on the install of Pro Application Support 3.0. DL works fine, file looks great, install proceeds smoothly, but when the drive icons are shown in the next to last step, ticking off the drive with Logic Pro version 7.1.1(8885) elicits the red exclamation point. What gives - anybody know?

There are two versions of Pro Application Support: one for 10.3 and the other for 10.4. Are you sure you got the right one?
Also, there is a newer version of it (3.1). For 10.3.9, and for For 10.4.

How to install particular Applications to Particular laptop Models

Hi,
Is any way to install the application to specific models of Laptops or Desktops without using DB?
Shailendra Dev

Yes use a WMI Query or Task Sequence Variable as condition!
Imagine, wanting to install the Validity Fingerprint Driver and Suite to a HP Probook 6560b.
Import the application in MDT, like you normally do with all applications.
In your task sequence, embed an "Install Application" step an point it towards the specific application you want to install.
Now on the options tab, click "ADD" and select: "Task Sequence Variable"
Now a pop-up dialog appears, specify which Variable is meant and specify the value.
In this case:
Model equals HP Probook 6560b
You can also set the condition on a group instead of one specific action. Then everything residing under that nested group will either be executed or skipped. It's a great way to reduce complexity in dealing with various models or the desire to have a task
sequence per model, which is now not necessary.
Another way to achieve the same is to use a WMI query, which in this particular case would have looked like this:
select * from win32_computersystem where model = HP Probook 6560b
or you can use wildcards and then your query would be like:
select * from win32_computersystem where model like "%HP Probook 65%"
With the above used wildcard you target the entire HP Probook 65xx series.
Hope this provides you enough insight to achieve what you want, if there are any other questions you have, please feel free to respond.
And last but not least, check your BDD.log since it reveals all kinds of cool stuff that can be used as a condition for some sort. Think of things like physical memory, make, model, default gateway, physical disks etc.
Cheers!
