JDK 1.6 u12 installation on Windows XP as non-admin user

I am working on a machine which does not grant my user the admin rights. I had wanted to use JDK with Netbeans. The Netbeans was available as ZIP file, but it required pre-installed JDK. I am not able to install JDK (latest version 1.6 u12) as non-admin user. Is this even possible and how?
Operating System : Windows XP (SP3)
JDK Version : 1.6 update 12
User : Non-Administrator
Thanks,
Akbar.

Contact your admin and ask him to install or to give you local admin rights.

  • Not able to install ActiveX (OCX) on Non-Admin user in Windows 7 ( internet Explorer 8/9)

    I need the solution to install ActiveX controls throught CAB file (Micorsoft Cabinet) for non-admin users. Our solution is working for user accounts with adminstrator rights but not for nonadmin users.
    So far we have tried solution given here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd433049(v=vs.85).aspx
    and here:
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/askie/archive/2012/09/27/guidlines-on-implementing-activex-installer-service-axis.aspx
    But we could not succeed. Pls Help !

    Hi,
    Apologize for the late reply and the misunderstanding about the ActiveX download location, we could change the location through the below registries:
    Use Registry Editor to change the "ActiveXCache" value to the location you want in the following registry key:
          HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings
    Use Registry Editor to change the "0" value to the location you want in the following registry key:
          HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ActiveX Cache
       NOTE: The values you enter in steps 1 and 2 must match.
    More information, please check
    How to Change the Download Location for ActiveX Files (registries exists in IE11).
    Regarding the urls that download the cab files into user profile directory, would you mind to share the URL?
    And here is some information regarding inf files:
    About INF File Architecture
    We may check the value of DestDir, DestDir can be set to 10 to place the file into the \Windows directory or to 11 to place the file into the \Windows\System directory. If no value is specified, the file is placed into the \Cache directory.

  • Disabling Windows Explorer For Non Admins and Leaving it Enabled For Admins.

    Good evening,
    I am running a Citrix XenApp environment and I need to disable explorer.exe from running for non admin users. My team and I have discovered that exporer.exe can be accessed by any app that is being used by the end user and therefore can grant that user access
    to the XenApp server interface--this is a BIG NO NO!
    The users do not have admin rights when in explorer.exe but they can shutdown the server. I can disable a few areas such as the taskmgr, regedit, cmd, windows+x, and I can prevent the user from shutting down the system by only allowing them to log off,
    and prevent them from making changes to desktop icons, but it would be much preferred to stick it to the users and not allow them to access the XenApp server interface at all,
    I have tested changing the shell for explorer.exe from explorer.exe to iexplorer.exe and this worked fine (it only displayed the desktop wallpaper for the logged on user), but the change was not reversible. Luckily, I took a snapshot of my virtual test system
    before hand. 
    Is there a way to prevent Windows Explorer from running for all non admins and also so that the local administrator account is not affected by the change as well? I have also tried preventing explorer.exe from running via GPO but that didn't work.
    Thanks in advance,

  • We have non admin users on Windows 7. They change the homepage and it works for that session. When they close the browser, and restart it again the default homepage is shown.

    Windows 7 Sp3. Using Firefox 7.01
    Non admin users.
    Can change homepage to whatever they like and it will work.
    BUT when they close firefox and open it again the home page goes back to default setting

    Update.
    This looks to be a mozilla.cfg setting. If I take out the pref("browser.startup.homepage","ourwebpage");
    it loads the basic firefox "FirstPage"
    How do I get around adding a default homepage that can be changed by the user?
    I have tried adding
    defaultPref.. .. then the webpage info.. BUT it retrurns a Failed to read the configuration file. Please contact your system administrator.
    Do I need to create a prefs.js file?
    And if I do how do I get it to work for each new user that logs into that machine?

  • (Windows Server 2003) Cannot run SQLSERVERAGENT service under non admin user after SP1 Installation

    Hi All,
    I need a hand here, referring to this knowledge base on Microsoft (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q283811) i applied this knowledge base, and it worked, the MSSQL and SQLSERVERAGENT have run under local non admin account.
    But after i installed SP1, MSSQL service is ok, but SQLSERVERAGENT wont run. The warning message is : "Some service run and then stop if they have no work to do."
    Is there any way i can install SP1 but in the same time run SQLSERVERAGENT under local non admin account?
    Your assistance will be much appreciated
    thank you very much in advance.

    Please go to the windows services list and check that the service is configured as start Automatic first
    1. run -> services.msc -> look for a service named "SQL Server Agent" -> proporties
    2. make sure the startup type is Automatic
    3. start the service again.
    4. If it stop then post for us the full error message from the sql log file
    5. move to the "Log On" tab and check what Log on you are using (this will be used for next step if startup type Automatic did not help, therefore write this information).

  • Trust ALL root Certifications in Windows not working for non-Admins on Terminal Server

    I have been trying to setup a verification process that will allow us to us Active Directory Certifications to verify signatures. I have finally found the setting to use the Windows Store after not getting Adobe to query our Certificate Authority. It works great on our local desktop where users have Admin access, but when users do it on our Terminal Server it does not allow it. I thought the issue was access to a configuration file in the Adobe directory, but I found the setting in the Registry set correctly. But does not work correctly. One additional note is I had noticed that after I enabled it on a Non-Admin, is Adobe would say it crashed after I shut it down.
    My question is what type of privilege do you need, or maybe Adobe need to access the Windows Cert Store from a Terminal Server with a non-Admin because it is not validating after confirming the Setting is enabled.

    hello, since version 26 firefox is able to auto-update on windows even for non-admin users (when the mozilla maintenance service is getting installed in the original configuration): http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/26.0/releasenotes/#whatsnew
    those would be the auto-updates provided by mozilla directly - so i'm not sure if this is something that would fit in your environment. installing the .exe file of a new version (available at [https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/]) on top of an older version will also update the program.

  • PE13 on Windows 8.1 and non-admin or UAC issues?

    Before I try to evaluate Premiere Elements 13 64-bit, I want to ask if lingering problems related to UAC and non-admin user accounts were resolved since version 11.
    It's good to see a 64-bit version of Elements come out since then.

    Gordon Fecyk
    On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 13 running? For now I will assume Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit.
    Not sure what you mean by:
    It's good to see a 64-bit version of Elements come out since then.
    assume you mean version 11. So in that case....
    Premiere Elements Windows 10, 11, 12, and 13 are 64 bit applications when installed and run on specifically on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit. Other Windows versions are 32 bit applications in 32 bit system or 32 bit application running in the 32 bit compatibility mode of 64 bit system. On the Mac side of things,  it is my recollection that Premiere Elements 11 Mac was the first to be a 64 bit application when run on Mac 64 bit system.
    It is my understanding that nothing has changed over the versions with regard to Premiere Elements and the matter of "UAC and non-admin accounts". Probably Microsoft would be a good source on that. Recent threads seem to suggest that Premiere Elements is not working with Domain accounts.
    This is not Adobe. Rather a user to user forum. If you want to contact Adobe about your feature requests, you could consider the Adobe Feature Request Bug Report Form.
    https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&loc=en
    When you have specific problems with aspects of your Premiere Elements 13 purchased or tryout, we would be glad for the opportunity to be of assistance. Definitely recommend tryout before purchase to assure the compatibility of your program with your specific computer environment and your project goals.

  • Allow a windows non-administrator user to run cmd.exe as administrator without sharing administrator password with the user

    I have standalone Windows 2003 and 2008 Oracle database servers (they are not in a Windows domain environment ). The Oracle DBAs can perform all their routine activities from command line with administrator privileges. For this i've to either share administrator
    user password with the Oracle DBAs or add their windows login user to Administrators group. If i can give the DBA user permission to run windows command prompt without sharing administrator password, i can give them non-administrator login access to Windows
    2003/2008 server. Normally when a non administrator user would try to run a program as administrator on Windows 2008, the user is prompted to input administrator username/password. Is it possible to give non-admin user access to run a program/application (cmd.exe
    in this case) on Windows 2003/2008 without sharing administrator credentials with them?

    With the OTORISER application I developed, normal users can run applications with admin privilege …  
    Otoriser is totally free ! Applications, mmc consoles, control panel cpl files can be run under admin and system context with Otoriser. Let’s say you donot want your users to be admin in their machines, but want them to run some applications with admin rights.
    If this is the case then you are on the right blog.
    There are two components for Otoriser. Management and client components. There are no complex implementation and no frustrating steps to be performed. Within 10 minutes you can start testing the results
    After you download the setup files, install client components in the client by running it directly (or any deployment method you have), it will take about 5 seconds to install it. Then, let’s say you want your user to change system properties of the machine.
    With the tool provided in Admin package produce the hash of system.cpl file and enter that hash into the group policy (details are provided in documentation). When policies are applied for that user then he or she can run that control panel applet under admin
    context but donot forget that the user is still an ordinary user.

    Now I am trying to run the Net config assistant outside of the installer and configure a 10g listener for the 10g instance using a port different from the 1521 that teh 9i listener is using and it keeps telling me that:
    The information provided for this listener is currently in use by other software on this computer. You can proceed with the configuration as is but it will not be possible to start the listener until the conflict is resolved...
    I have tried several different ports (the only thing that could be in conflict, I think) and I keep getting the same message..
    HELP!!
    Has anyone out there set up a 9i and 10g installation on Windows using two different listeners, one for the 9i and another for 10g?

    Yes, I have read this other thread you have cited but there is no conclusion - other than maybe by rerunning the install he overcame the issue and never completed the thread. In my case, the initial 10g install failed to run the net config assistant and there never was a 10g listener service created. Also, now I try to run the net config assistant stand alone and it refuses to create a listener service...claims that there is a conflict, even if I try on other than the default port.
    I'm thinking the conflict lies with the fact there is an up and running 9i listener service and yes that listener is active because it is servicing a live production instance.
    Our goal was to install a 10g instance with it's own separate listener, import our schemas and test our app on a 10g database then one day turn the 10g into the production instance.
    Our plan was to avoid endangering the production environment by even trying to service the 9i database with the 10g listener. You cannot use a 9i listener for a 10g database but from what I read in the other thread you have cited, to try to fire up the 10g listener to service the 9i production instance would have resulted in a loss of servicve to the production environment if I experience the same phenomena as the fellow in the other thread.
    Thank you for your time and consideration here...
    I believe I should propose to have a separate server box set up to host this new 10g database. Our overall objective is to keep the production system up and running no matter what.
    In the old days I remember that if too many attempts were made at installing on a Windows platform the registry would get hosed up beyond repair and the only out was to re-image the box and start over with a fresh copy of teh Windows operating system:-)
    Let me know if you have any further suggestions...
    Regards-

    The problem with J2EE is the support status of the used JDK. Sun does not support 1.4.2 under Vista/Windows 2008, technically it works.

  • Building JDK 1.4.2.13 in Windows

    I am trying to build JDK 1.4.2.13 in Windows. I am using Windows XP (instead of NT) and is the only difference from the informaiton given in build instructions document part of JDK 1.4.2.13. I am trying to build a JRE package from the JDK source which is similar like downloaded JRE file.
    Here are the problems:
    1. When I build the package, it is is not picking up the latest object files from J2SDK 1.4.2.13 but old files that were part of 1.4.2.0 (JDK 1.4.2). Are these new object files supposed to get updated when the JRE is installed on the target machine or they should overwrite the object files in package itself.
    2. The package got built but while installing it complained about plugin.jar file being missing. I traced and found that for WIN32 plugin.jar does not get built ie BUILD_PLUGIN sets to false if win32 folder is not there. But this plugin.jar file is present in the downloaded JRE file.
    3. I removed custom action for plugin.jar and retried installation. This time it failed with an error of InstallJavaJRERegistrySettings having improper arguments. This API is part of RegUtil dll which I tried with different copies but all returned same error.
    4. I removed the above custom action and able to install JRE on the target machine. But it got installed under D:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2 instead of j2re1.4.2.13. I confirmed that the JDK_VERSION property gets a value of 1.4.2 only.
    5. java -version returns an error which could be the reason for 'InstallJavaJRERegistrySettings' not getting executed.
    How can I get updates for installation files in JDK source.
    I had created a message in another link but could not get much help. That link can be accessed in
    http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5119418&tstart=0

    are you using any IDE for build purposes? Are you using ant? what is the error that you get during the build process. Are you sure that your env is setup correctly, meaning, Path, classpath, Java_home, ant_home etc. depending on the tool you are using for the build.
