J2SE JDK 1.6.0_18 silent install ignores arguments

I'm trying to install J2SE 1.6.0_18 on Windows XP Professional w/ SP3 via the command line silent install function, and I'm trying to get all 3 portions of the install (JDK, JRE and JavaDB) to install to the D:\ drive. From what I've read in the forums and from the instructions I found on the [webnotes page|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/webnotes/install/jdk/install-windows.html] , I came up with the following command that should work:
jdk-6u18-windows-i586.exe /s INSTALLDIR=\"d:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_18\" INSTALLDIRPUBJRE=\"d:\Program Files\Java\jre6\" INSTALLDIRJAVADB=\"d:\Program Files\Sun\JavaDB\"However, when the command is run, the JDK is installed to the correct location, but the JRE and JavaDB are installed to their default locations.
I've also run the installation through the GUI and noticed that even there, there is no option to specify where the JavaDB gets installed. I'm able to specify the location for the JDK and the JRE, but that's it.
Any thoughts or suggestions? Maybe something I've missed?

Try the following with the parameter INSTALLDIR without forward slash and both */INSTALLDIRJAVADB* and */INSTALLDIRPUBJRE* with forward slash
jdk-6u26-windows-i586.exe /s INSTALLDIR=\"c:\java\jdk-6u26\" /INSTALLDIRJAVADB=\"c:\java\javadb-6u26\" /INSTALLDIRPUBJRE=\"c:\java\jre-6u26\"If you want to use ADDLOCAL please note that */INSTALLDIRJAVADB* and/or */INSTALLDIRPUBJRE* only work if the values PublicjreFeature and/or JavaDBFeature are in ADDLOCAL. e.g.
jdk-6u26-windows-i586.exe /s ADDLOCAL="ToolsFeature,DemosFeature,SourceFeature,JavaDBFeature,PublicjreFeature" INSTALLDIR=\"c:\java\jdk-6u26\" /INSTALLDIRJAVADB=\"c:\java\javadb-6u26\" /INSTALLDIRPUBJRE=\"c:\java\jre-6u26\"

Silent Install -- ignore Non Empty Home

Doing a 10g install in Silent mode and wondering how I can get past the Non Empty home message.
During the interactive install, you simply say ignore or continue. I cleared all of the files in the $ORACLE_HOME prior to the install, but it creates a log file in that directory as that is also the $UNIX_HOME. I cannot change the ORACLE_HOME destination because of backup scripts and cannot do an interactive install. So, does anyone know how to bypass the OUI-10029 message during a silent install using a responsefile?
Thanks.

Prakash,
Thank you for the reply. This error occurs in a previously empty directory. The oracle installer adds a log and lock directory. I am using the -force flag only to get around the installer files (not to be confused with the /tmp installer files elsewhere). I thought about turning validation off but I still need it.
I can't access the bug. Is there a way to force the installer to not write to the empty directory before it validates that is is empty by writing the log and lock directory elsewhere?
However, with the -novalidation flag the WebLogic 12.1.2.0 silent install is proceeding - I will verify it shortly

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.

Silent install of JDK, not JRE

Hi,
and sorry, if this had already been covered here (though I could not find it via search).
For the installation procedure of our own software, I need to install the JDK (not the JRE) 1.4.2_03 first in silent mode (on Windows 2000). I tried to execute the following:
j2sdk-1_4_1_03-windows-i586.exe /s /v '/qn ADDLOCAL=ALL INSTALLDIR=C:\silent REBOOT=Suppress'. Since I read a hint for JRE silent install, I tried with and without a space after /v, but the install just comes up normally, asking for installation directory, etc, so no silent install!
Anyone having a hint in that direction? Maybe it's not possible at all with JDK?
Thanks in advance
Jens

Here it's the method to do silent install :
start /w j2sdk-1_4_2_10-windows-i586-p.exe /s /v"/qn ADDLOCAL=ALL INSTALLDIR=D:\java\jre"Please notify after the /v switch : between it and the quote, there is no space.
This's the command line to do a silent uninstall :
start /W j2sdk-1_4_2_10-windows-i586-p.exe /s /v"/qn REBOOT=Suppress" /xYou must have the original j2sdk installer on the drive. I have seen a uninstall method with the msiexec installer but it doesn't work... really shade. Because i think keep up the original installation package to perform a uninstallation's a space waste.
Sorry to reply to this old thread... and sorry for my ugly / bad english.

How do I specify JDK install directory for JDK 1.6 (silent install)

How do I specify the JDK install directory (on Windows, and on other platforms) using silent install parameters?
I know how to specifry the install directory for the "public install directory" for the JRE, but what about the JDK directory? I don't want to put it on the "C" drive .

I know the answer.
You can use something like this: jre-6-rc-windows-i586.exe /s INSTALLDIR=D:\java\jre
Then JRE is installed into D:\java\jre
For more information, please read: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/webnotes/install/jre/silent.html
Best wishes.

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 handle "/9.2.0/root.sh as root from another window" in silent instal

Hi,
I was successful to start a silent installation of Oracle9iR2 using a responsefile on my System RHEL 3. But the installation ends soon and a wrong successful install message:
Error :*** Alert: A configuration script needs to be run as root before installation can proceed. Please leave this window up, go run /opt/app/oracle/product/9.2.0/root.sh as root from another window, then come back here and click OK to continue. ***
The installation of Oracle9i Database was successful.
I use -ignorePatchConflicts for ignoring the patch conflicts. But How do I handle these issues. Where I have to run root.sh ... etc in teh Non Interactive Install.
I am scripting solution for non interactive install and manual intervention to run these root.sh shell scripts at different points of install is not a good idea as it wont help me automate the install.
Please let me know if anyone has solved this problem with -silent install.
Thanks in advance.
Senthil

Thats me (OP) again:
I tried setting:
SHOW_ROOTSH_CONFIRMATION=false in the response file. But still no help. The installation exits at run root.sh prompt point. How I can effectively deal with it in a script?

Silent install of 12.0.1 update for Illustrator CS2

I am able to use your instructions to perform a silent install of Illustrator CS2. However, I can't find any information (and nothing I've tried so far works) on how to install the 12.0.1 in silent mode. So far any type of switch I use for silent (i.e. /s /qn) is just ignored. Please advise.
Thanks.

Already had posted to Illustrator forum, but no-one answered (still haven't). Can't extract the file either (I've been able to extract some other Adobe product updates, but not this one or InDesign's update). Thanks anyway.

Has anybody an idea for me??

Silent Install of Java

Hi,
I'm looking for a way to silently install Java SE on linux and solaris platform.
I have find out how to achieve this under windows but i don't find anything on Linux and Solaris.
They must be a solution has when installing Weblogic, JDK is packaged within the distro.
Anyone can help me ?
Kind Regards.
D@rkSt@r

Are talking about a silent install while the user is browsing your website?? That sounds like unwanted software to me!! and users do not really like to have that!!
If you are talking about a normal application installation, the user will still have to clieck some executable file to start the installation.
Also beware that in some countries, installing unwanted software on the pc of others without prior acknolegments could lead to legal actions, so I sugest informing the user of what is happening.
Regards,

Captivate 7 - silent install?

I'm trying to create a silent install package for Captivate 7. It doesn't appear that this works with AAMEE. Has anyone been able to do this? If it won't be possible with AAMEE, is there a way to do it with cmd line switches?

FYI, the tool I had before was NOT Creative Cloud Packager... it was just Creative Cloud. Most of the information out there regarding downloading of CCP is not valid anymore. You cannot download it from the LWS (Adobe Licensing Website), you must download it from https://creative.adobe.com and it is ONLY available to the Adobe Team Admin ID... When I used my ID, the download links were unavailable.
See also:

ignore the part where it says to go to LWS (Adobe Licensing Website) downloads for CCP

JRE 1.4 Silent Install does not install

For testing purposes I downloaded the JRE installer (15+ MB) onto the Windows PC I wanted to test out the silent install on. I'm referencing the notes posted here: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/plugin/developer_guide/silent.html
At the MS-DOS prompt I type the following command and nothing happens. I don't get any errors or anything and nothing seems to be running in the background. It just executes the command and returns to a blinking cursor.
From this directory on my computer c:\Program Files\CF EMS\ I execute the following:
j2re-1_4_2_08-windows-i586-p.exe /s /v "/qn ADDLOCAL=ALL IEEXPLORER=1 INSTALLDIR=c:\jre1.4 /L jresetup.log"
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Nothing ever gets installed.
NOTE: If I double-click on the .exe installer, it runs the GUI installer and completes successfully so I know the executable works.
Thank you for any help.
- Billy -

Figured it out for those of you that run into this issue... I needed to read the documentation a little more carefully...
I originally had the following command j2re-1_4_2_08-windows-i586-p.exe /s /v "/qn ADDLOCAL=ALL IEXPLORER=1 INSTALLDIR=c:\jre1.4 /L jresetup.log"
I am using the offline installer. If you read the NOTES section in http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/plugin/developer_guide/silent.html you'll see in #3 it states that there should be no space between the /v and the "/qn in the command if you are using the Windows Offline Installation.
So the correct command is:
j2re-1_4_2_08-windows-i586-p.exe /s /v"/qn ADDLOCAL=ALL IEXPLORER=1 INSTALLDIR=c:\jre1.4 /L jresetup.log"

Silent Install and Configuration Files

I am trying to do a silent install and am scripting with AutoIT. Before
the reboot I am copying down configuration.cfg and configuration.ini that
I have created previously. But when the machine restarts it seems to
ignore these and use a default configuration. Does anyone know what files
I need to copy and in what situation in order to get NCF to use a prepared
configuration.
Many Thanks
Andrew

the following list of files is what i backup when i run an update or
reinstall the client or whatever...
config.ini
configuration.cfg
favorites.ini
modules.ini
ncf.ini
op_data.ini
op_data.mdb
op_log.ini
op_viewer.ini
resolved.dns
plugins.ini - will be different if you've installed any
Cheers!
