Installer for Java

Hello,
I need a way to make installer files from my Java code. Maybe you could point me some code or any application, freeware please, that can do the following:
- Versioning control. It must not install old components, or re-install the actual version.
- It can let me make the "normal" things: compress/decompress, select destination...
- It must work with Unix, as well as with Windows.
- It must let me modify the contents of some xml configuration files, depending on the destination I have entered.
�Any idea?. Thank you.

Hi,
U can use JInstallToolkit from IBM. It is freeware u can use it.
I hope it will solve u r problem.

The javacard API is for developing applets on card. Java 6 is for developing clients off-card.
yes u can use any java IDEs like netbeans or jcreator. But you will have to select the libraries within the downloaded java card kit folder for ur IDE in order to compile successfully.
try reading up the documentation and run the samples in the java card kit. thats a good place to start.

Creating a Windows installer for Java applications

Hello, I have a question about deployment:
I have a pure Java desktop application. Obviously, it's in the form of a JAR file. I want to sell this to users who are "clueless" about Java, so I need to wrap it up in an installer file that does the following:
1. Detects if there is a JRE on the system. If there isn't, send the user over to java.com to grab one.
2. Once a JRE is installed, then it should install itself so that there are menu entries on the Start menu, icons, all that kind of stuff.
3. Ideally it would look like it's just a plain old .exe file so users don't even need to be concerned with JARs, etc.
I found these two open source apps that can wrap a JAR into an EXE:
http://jsmooth.sourceforge.net/
http://launch4j.sourceforge.net/
Both of them look great. They take a JAR and make it into a smart .EXE that knows how to find a JRE and provides reasonable feedback if no suitable JRE is found. launch4j can also display a splash screen, which sounds trivial, but is actually quite important for the user experience. That's great. But the next step is to wrap this EXE into a real installer that sets up menus and icons. Any suggestions on this?
Thanks

Installer for JAVA application and JVM

Hi all,
I want to install a java application(server side). I used free version of InstallAnywhere to do this before. But since my installer may need more complicated operations, like search the registery and detect if they have installed the JVM and Tomcat. if not, suggest them to install, etc. My company do not have the enterprise version of InstallAnywhere, but the InstallShields.
I am not sure which tool I should use for such installer, InstallShield or InstallAnywhere/ or any other suggestions?
jing

I find this link as a good source to know what programs there are for a given tool:
http://sys-con.com/java/readerschoice2002/
Click on the "Best Java Installation Tool" link, and check if any of those programs can do what you need.
InstallShield and InstallAnywhere seems to be the most used programs.

Java Access Bridge 2.0.2 Installer for Windows OS

Hi,
I am searching for an automated install version of Java Access Bridge 2.0.2 for Windows, but am having great difficulties.
The version that is around just now is not practical for our needs. I work for an organisation who wish to get users to install Java Access Bridge in order to use JAWS. As they are blind or partially sited, the manual install is too difficult for them to carry out by themselves.
Searching Google has proved fruitless, and the only real lead I have found was on these forms when someone said that one was in beta test, but having searched the web site, I could not find it.
Could someone please let me know the current status of the installer ?
Thanks
GW

You might want to check out this thread:
Java Access Bridge and JRE 1.6
If you have Java 6, you'll need to manually install Java Access Bridge 2.0.1. The JAB 2.0.2 installer for Java 6 is also available as a beta:

Installer for a Java Program

Hello, folks.
I've written an application that I feel is ready to show to others, and would like to provide it with an installer.
I need to check that JRE 1.4 is installed, install it if it isn't, install the application to a directory, set install/uninstall options in the control panel, and add a start menu item. (This will be a Windows-platform installer.)
Could any of you suggest a free (not demo) installer system that I could use? I've heard that there are some good ones out there, but I don't have their names and associated URL's.
thanks,
Andrew

Hello All,
This is may be bit of a tangent, but hopefully it can be helpful regardless...
I'm looking into installer programs that are java friendly with the ability to generate a gui-based install program for multiple platforms. I went out and tried to find as many programs that match these specs (list below). Before I dive headlong into demo-sampling-mode - I was hoping folks would share any positive or negative experiences they've had with any of the apps listed below.

Java Add-In Installation for EHP4 ERP system

Hello!
we successfully upgraded our SAP ERP system to EHP4 for SAP.
Our system has only ABAP stack.
Question
1) Is it possible to install a Java Add-In instance for the existing EHP4 system?
2) If yes, can this be done on the same Windows server?
Thank you very much!

Specific Requirements
Take the following specific requirements of the new installation process into consideration:
- The previous SAPInst installation service Java Add-In in SAP ERP 6.0/SAP NetWeaver
7.0 was able to add Java usage types such as EPC, or EP, to existing ABAP-only
systems. This was possible only, if you added AS Java at the same time. The option of a
Java Add-In installation is not any longer available as of the enhancement package 4 for
SAP ERP 6.0. Thus, it is not any longer possible, for example, to add EPC and EP
together with AS Java to an ABAP-only system.
[SAP Enhancement Package 4 for SAP ERP 6.0|https://websmp201.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700000772192007E]
There are many links on SDN discussing ERP EHP 4 dual stack:

HI Guys,
We have installed Web-As ABAP 640 on Windows 2003 and MSSQL 2000 SP3 server.
We have created named instance called "SAPDEV01\SAPXI".
While installing Web As-Java 640 as a Add-In we have encounted following error:
"SEVERE: couldn't connect to DB
java.sql.SQLException: [DataDirect][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Login failed for user 'SAPGXDDB'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
We have checked the authentication mode of MSSQL server, it is "SQL server and Windows", still we are facing the problem.
Please give us solution ASAP.

SPS 18 Installation fails while asking for Java Crypthography Extension

Hi @ all,
some weeks ago we deployed the file "tc_sec_java_crypto_signed_fs_lib.sda by the SDM. But we didn´t enabled strong encryption in the portal.
Now, i want to update my portalstack from SPS 14 to SPS 18 and while i update J2EE Sapinstaller asks for Java Crypthography Extension-Source-Code. But i don´t want to install it, because automatically the database is set to strong encryption and i can´t use / administrate in anymore.
I still undeployed the IAEK-FS-File but the problem persists.
I´m very pleasent for every answer.
Best Regards
Lars

Hey,
that´s fine Sascha.
It works greatly. SPS 18 not asking für JCE anymore.
The Installation is now running.
Thx a lot!
Greetingz

Installation Error 1335 for java version 1.5 and 1.4 which i have tried

i tried to install the latest java ie 1.5.0_04 or matter of fact other java versions also but the Installation of java is stopped by the Error code : 1335. following up with the Internal Error code : 2350.
My system configuration is PIV 2.4 Ghz HT enabled. Intel 865GBF motherboard. 512Mb DDR ram. The problem is coming in the Data1.Cab.
I even tried online installation. Eventually J2RE latest edition has installed from Java.com update. But the JDK 1.5 has the same problem even while downloading it from the Server online.
Plz help me out in installing java in my computer. Its urgent for my project work.
Email:[email protected]

first of all do not post twice. you want help in this forum, one post is enoough. Two post doesnt help you at all.
If you have problem installing java in your computer, try to search it on the net yourself first or look around the sun website.
I'm not exactly sure where your problem is. I tried installing java 1.5.0 but i had few problems so im still using 1.4.2 version. if you are in a hurry try installing 1.4.2 and see whether you can install or not

I also had problems when trying to install 1.5.0. I must have downloaded the offline installation file at least a dozen times and always got the 1335 error. I tried just about all the "recommended solutions", but none of them worked for me. I downloaded the file through WellGet, Firefox, and Internet Explorer. The installation file downloaded through WellGet and Firefox had identical results (error at the same point in the installation "timeline", but the file downloaded through Internet Explorer errored at bit later, which seemed weird, but I guess different software runs differently (obviously!)...
During my lunchbreak at work, I downloaded the offline installation file (through Internet Explorer--my only option at work) and tried to install it when I got home. At first it seemed like it was going to work, as it didn't immediately pop up and say the Data1.cab was corrupted. However, at the end of the installation, I got a 1722 error, so I was disappointed.
Then I decided to try something that people always recommend, but I never do--disabling everything possible when installing something. I rebooted, disabled everything I could in my Systray (anything that had an Exit option in the menu--I didn't go wild and stop everything in Task Manager though...), and lo and behold, the installation went through the SDK, started installing the JRE, and I held my breath, hoping I didn't get a 1722 at the end. No 1722. It finally installed! Yay!
My theory is that either my firewall, anti-virus, or anti-spyware programs were messing up the downloading of the installation file. My workplace only has anti-virus and a hardware firewall. The fact that one download had a 1335 error and the other did not supports this theory. Or that maybe the file got corrupted by chance, but what are the odds I'd get a dozen corrupts in a dozen attempts? If one blames the source file at Sun as being corrupt, then no one would ever be able to install 1.5...
Another strong theory is that I needed to shut off all programs before installing. I'm not going to risk uninstalling my good install to test out that theory on my "corrupted" installation file, though... This could explain a dozen corrupts in a dozen attempts. If so, the file is not corrupt, but something is amiss in the OS environment.
It's feasible that someone could be stuck in a rut trying to download the same file through the same "pipeline" (firewall, anti-virus, anti-spyware) or stubbornly trying to bulldoze through an installation with their RAM chock full of unnecessary programs. It's too easy to just say "their" file is corrupt or Windows Installer is busted--I too was thinking along those lines...
Anyway, if you consistently get a 1335 error (or maybe other kinds of errors), try shutting down all non-essential programs in the Systray (and maybe in the Startup and Task Manager--although that wasn't necessary for me). If that doesn't work, download the installation file from another computer/source or get ahold of an installation file that has proven to work. These two options are possibly the easiest to try. If they don't work, then one'd have resort to the more esoteric fix-its...
On a side note, it was a bit scary having to shut off my firewall and anti-virus... I hope nothing got through in the two minutes they were down--I should have turned off my DSL modem...oh well.
Now, I have to test out my 1.5 install to see if it is really okay. If it's not, I'll post back and complain...haha
