Simple (?) JRE installation question

Java / Control Panel states current version is 1.6.0 (build 1.6.0_03-b05).
I am cleaning up the Norton Internet Security 2005 Program Control list (list of programs that access Internet and how Norton controls that access) in anticipation of re-installing Norton Internet Security 2005; hopefully to correct a problem with CCAPP.EXE dying unexpectedly and killing POP3 email service access.
I found six (6) Sun / Java related entries:
Sun Microsystems Java 2 Platform Standard Edition Automatic Multiple
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_01\bin\jusched.exe
Sun Microsystems Java Update Checker Automatic Multiple
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_01\bin\jucheck.exe
Sun Microsystems Java Update Checker Automatic Multiple
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_10\bin\jucheck.exe
Sun Microsystems Java Update Checker Automatic Multiple
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_09\bin\jucheck.exe
Sun Microsystems Java Update Checker Automatic Multiple
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_06\bin\jucheck.exe
Sun Microsystems Java Update Checker Automatic Multiple
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_05\bin\jucheck.exe
Several questions.
1. Do we need all the earlier version JUCHECK.EXE entries?
2. Why doesn't 1.6.0_03 have JUCHECK.EXE / JUSCHED.EXE / JUREG.EXE(?) entries?
Thanks.

Well, actually that was only half the question.
Do we need the older versions in the Internet Access Control list?
Does anyone really know what time it is?

JRE installation question

I installed JRE 1.4.2_04-b05 on my windows xp box. Everything worked fine without any problems.
Than I found on my windows/system32 a java.exe and some other java*.* files in the system directories from windows xp even I installed java to another location.
My question is: why are these files there (java.exe also exists in the install directory) and how can I avoid to have these files in the system directories from the OS.
Thx in advance
Frank

Oops, sorry, I thought I was answering another question... Yes, you can delete them and you will still be able to use Java but I am not sure if there would be problems with the uninstaller or software that assumes that the Java interpreters can be found from PATH.
Why do you want to delete them, they don't take that much diskspace do they?

Basic questions about JRE installation

I am using NSIS to make a installer, which insalls the JRE 1.5, JMF, Javamp3, then our own software packages.....
Firstly I have some basic question about the general installatio/deinstallation.
1 Why sometimes is it required to reboot computer for the installed software to take effect, e.g.
JRE 1.5. If not, what doest NOT take effect? (Actually in many cases, it seems to work even if not reboot the computer).
Regarding the JRE 1.5,
I am wondering:
1 where is the registry entry written in windows?
2 how to make the JRE installation process silent?
Thanks !

Using axbridge.dll without going through the JRE installation process

I've searched the web and this forum for this specific problem, and have found related items, but nothing that quite answers the question.
I have an application that uses the JRE's axbridge.dll to access a DLL created from a Java bean. I used the packager to create a DLL named MyBean.dll.
When I go through the full JRE install, everything works great. That is to say, when I execute Sun's JRE installation program and go through the normal install process, I can access the bean through MyBean.dll without any problems.
I am accessing MyBean.dll from a Visual Basic 6.0 application. Converting to VB .Net is NOT an option at this time. The VB app uses MyBean.dll for a critical part of the application.
It is my understanding that it is not strictly necessary to go through the full JRE installation process. Simply deploying the JRE by copying its directory (and all subdirectories) to your application's directory structure should be sufficient. This would be HIGHLY desirable for my application. In fact, if I can't do this, it may be a show-stopper.
When I install my application in this way (i.e, by simply copying the JRE instead of "installing" it) it doesn't work at all. I immediately get an error saying that the executable "has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience" and a dialog is displayed offering to send the problem information to Microsoft.
The details indicate clearly that the problem occurs in the axbridge.dll, version 1.4.2.60.
1. Any ideas on how to get the axbridge.dll to work without going through the full JRE install?
2. Are there any alternatives to using the axbridge.dll to get my VB app to be able to use the Java? Remember, it is VB that must call the Java, NOT the other way around.
3. Is JNI an alternative? If so, can I use JNI to get VB to use Java, or do I have to write the DLL's in C++?
Any help you can give would be VERY MUCH appreciated.

I'm also on a JRE installation problem with the bridge.
Here is a regmon extract on excel using a dll that uses a java-packaged dll from the bridge:
5229 5.69504923 EXCEL.EXE:2364 QueryValue HKCR\CLSID\{9DD49FCD-BB61-414E-88C8-E6F5B35AEDCB}\InprocServer32\(Default) SUCCESS "C:\win32app\Specific\jre1.5.0_05\bin\axbridge.dll" << The axbridge dll in a specific location
5271 5.70646800 EXCEL.EXE:2364 QueryValue HKLM\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Plug-in\1.5.0_05\JavaHome SUCCESS "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_05" << an installed JRE 1.5.0
This is confirmed with process explorer : excel is using "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_05\lib\rt.jar" and not "C:\win32app\Specific\jre1.5.0_05\lib\rt.jar"
In other word, the axbridge check for its installation location in the registry to know where to start.
Even if all your components have been updated in the registry as suggested here : http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=40&threadID=559704
JRE Bug or feature?
Anyway the registry is evil.

Why are all jar files not compressed in the JRE installer?

I used 7zip to unpack jre-6u12-windows-i586-p.exe (Oracle JRE Installer). On unpacking, I got a core.zip, a zipper.exe and a few other files.
Again on exploding core.zip I found a few things. core.zip contains all the jar files just like it would be after installation except for 7 jar files.
charsets.jar
deploy.jar
javaws.jar
jsse.jar
localedata.jar
plugin.jar
rt.jar
Instead of these jar files there exists the corresponding packfiles
charsets.pack
deploy.pack
javaws.pack
jsse.pack
localedata.pack
plugin.pack
rt.pack
I think these are files created by pack200.exe & unpack200.exe is run on them after installation to create the corresponding jar files.
So now I have a few questions
Why are only these 7 files run through pack200.exe. I assume its because they are bigger than other files. But it wouldn't take that much effort to pack all jar files & unpack them after installation.
The .pack extension suggests that these are packed but not gzipped. Again why would Oracle not do a gzip also? for eg with rt.jar packing reduces size from 45 MB to 12 MB, while adding gzip also reduces it to 6 MB.

Whatever the truth of all this may be, you won't find it here. This is a user to user forum, not Oracle support or a channel to the developers. All you will get here at best is valid post hoc reasoning: at worst, guesswork. And if you're trying to bring this issue to Oracle's attention, again this isn't the place to do it. Locking the thread.

Referencing a jre installation inside of a jar file

Hi,
I wrote a a small program that executes a JRE.exe installation when executed.
My problem is that I can't figure out how to reference the JRE installation that I've packaged inside of the Jar file.
I know that this must have a simple answer but I haven't been able to find one in the tutorials.
Any help would be apreciated.

You can't do that. How can expect to execute code in a jar file when the JRE that is needed is IN that jar file? You either have to:
1) Install the JRE prior to calling your applet or application or
2) If this is an applet on a webpage, you can run your HTML thru SUN's Htmlconverter which sets up the tags correctly and provides for automatic download of the JRE at runtime.

Automated JRE installation?

I would like to automatically install the JRE or JDK from a script or batch file. Are there any command line parameters that I can send to the executable to have it install quietly without having all of the Java installation screens and installation questions start poping up? Is there an easier way to deploy the JDK without Java Web Start!?

Here is a way the install JRE from a dos batch file:
: INSTALL JRE IF NOT PRESENT
echo off
IF EXIST "C:\Program Files\JavaSoft\Jre\1.3\bin\javaw.exe" GOTO JRE_PRESENT
echo Please wait for Java Runtime Installation
REM Copy Files
c:
cd \
md jreinstall
cd jreinstall
copy \\server name\some directory\jre.exe c:\jreinstall
copy \\server name\some directory\setup.iss c:\jreinstall
REM Install JRE
start /w jre.exe -a -s -f1setup.iss
REM Cleanup
cd \
rmdir /s /q \jreinstall
echo "Java Runtime Installation is complete"

JNLP does not trigger JRE installation

Hi
I want to launch my application with a minimum version of jre(i.e. 1.6.0_10). If on the system there is no jre installed
or jre installed on the system is older than 1.6.0_10, i want jnlp to trigger the installation of jre 1.6.0_25.
I tried following jnlp tags in my jnlp file:
<java version="1.6.0_10+" href="http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/6u25-b06/jre-6u25-windows-i586.exe"/>
<j2se version="1.6.0_10+" href="http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/6u25-b06/jre-6u25-windows-i586.exe"/>
None of the above tags trigger the installation of jre if on the system there is no jre installed
or installed jre is older than 1.6.0_10.
Any help would be great.
Thanks in advance.

_10+?My application is certified with jre version 1.6.0_25, but it can run on any jre version greater than 1.6.0_10. If user has any jre greater than 1.6.0_10 version application will use that jre. But if user does not have minimal jre version (i.e. 1.6.0_10) then i want to trigger jre installation and install the certified jre version for application(i.e. 1.6.0_25).
2) Have you validated the JNLP file using JaNeLA?
3) How is the link to the JNLP embedded in the web page?To me JNLP looks fine as it works fine if the system has atleast minimal jre version (i.e. 1.6.0_10), but fails to download jre 1.6.0_25 if it does not have 1.6.0_10 or any greater jre installed.
The link "http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/6u25-b06/jre-6u25-windows-i586.exe" is the download link for jre 1.6.0_25.

Problems with JRE installation 1.6.0_18 in silent mode

Hi!
I have problems with installing the JRE from the cmd line in silent mode and in a directory with spaces in the path.
If I remove the spaces in the INSTALLDIR, the JRE installs in the directory I have specified but not when I use spaces in the path.
The command I run is following:
jre-6u18-windows-i586.exe /s /v"/qn INSTALLDIR="C:\Program Files (x86)\company\product test\java\""
all I get is the help window to the windows installer with the different options. What am I missing?

What's the significance of the letter -p in the JRE installables

Hi,
Can anybody please let me know what is the significance of the letter "-p" in the JRE installables as i could see that till JRE 1.6.0_13 the name for the Window offline installable has -p {for eg: jre-6u12-windows-i586-p.exe} where as for the higher version i.e 1.6.0_14 onwards there is no letter "-p" {for eg: jre-6u14-windows-i586.exe} .
Appreciate your quick response in this regards.

qm control is only useful for procured materials
it
Manage quality-related information for materials, vendors, and manufacturers in quality info records
Monitor the QM systems of vendors and manufacturers
Supply quality documents with requests for quotations and purchase orders
Certify vendors or manufacturers that have QM systems implemented, to reduce the inspection requirement
Request that quality certificates be submitted with the delivered goods and monitor the receipt of these certificates
Inspect vendor goods at vendor sites (source inspections)
Block the payment of invoices until the goods have been inspected and accepted
U can use qm control key depending upon ur requirement

Photoshop Elements 10 Installation Question

How can I tell if my software installed properly? The software came with three discs, and it only installed the first disc. I am new to Photoshop, and do not know if my software installed properly? Can anyone help?

Gautham K,
Thank you for your quick replies. I have checked,and my OS is indeed 64 bit. I have been using the 32 bit version of Adobe Photoshop Elements 10, since I installed it last evening. I have a few quick questions;
Will I loose any functionality if I stay with the 32 bit version versus un-installing and installing the 64 bit version from disc 2?
If I decide to un-install, and re-install from disc 2, will there be any software registration issues (as I have already registered the software)?
Thanks again for all of your help.
Jim

Multiple JRE Installations and Coexistence

Hi Guys
Could any of you please help at all.
I am looking to find out is anyone has experienced or knows of any coexistence issues relating to Sun JRE installations.
We have the following JRE versions deployed on our estate:
1.4.2_04, 1.4.2_05 and 1.30_02
These are existing application dependencies.
We are looking to also deploy version 1.5.0_05 for a new application so this could potentially be installed on a machine with any of the above versions already installed.
If anyone has experienced any coexistence issues with any of the above, I would be very grateful of your help.
Many thanks all

6u10 offers a solution to this problem. The rewritten plugin in 6u10 allows the plugin to call the JRE version specified by the applet. The html source calling the applet must specify the version, which you may need to add if it is not already there.

It sounds like the client doesn't know what to do with what you are sending. Are you sure you are setting all of the header information correctly? Try using a telnet client to issue the GET request and see what is coming back.

Where does Jre Installs

Hello everybody !
Where or should I put it correctly how does the
Jre installs it self in windows enviroment ?
I guessed sun uses the folder Java as default and then make
some changes in the Windows Registry.
Is this folder always going to be java as default ? and
Will sun continue to use the same folders in the registry ?
Where can I get to know much about this ?
Thanks
bashiro

I'd suggest specifying why you want to know how to locate Sun's JRE on a Windows computer. Usually people want to know about the specific virtual machine their Java code is currently running on (or about to run on), and the techniques for detecting this have no relation to the ones you're asking for.

Installation Questions Documaker 12.3 Enterprise Edition

We are looking to install Documaker 12.3 Enterprise Edition and have the following installation questions:
When installing Documaker can we have our own VM in our own OU for the WAS application servers? This will make maintenance easier on our side. There doesn’t seem to be anything in the documentation saying this is a good or a bad idea.
Our WAS Admins would like to know what the scripts in the Post-Setup documentation actually do. Is it possible to use our existing scripting environment to build the necessary pieces instead of using scripts from the documaker install? If it’s not possible, can we get a look at the documaker scripts before we run them?
We would like to know if WAS 8.5 is supported, or if version 7.0.0.27 in the requirements pdf is the only version supported?

When installing Documaker can we have our own VM in our own OU for the WAS application servers? This will make maintenance easier on our side. There doesn’t seem to be anything in the documentation saying this is a good or a bad idea.
The typical installation scenario is to have 3 tiers - application (WAS), application (Documaker), and data. WAS tiers host web applications (Dashboard, Administrator, Interactive) as well as providing database connection pools and JMS queues for messaging - it is expected that the WAS environment is a clustered environment and that the applications are deployed to the cluster members, which can be physical or virtual. For the Documaker application server, these can be physical or virtual as well. It's recommended to install Documaker on single-purposes environments, however there's nothing to prevent you from doing otherwise. The Documaker applications are self-contained JVMs and can be tuned accordingly.
Our WAS Admins would like to know what the scripts in the Post-Setup documentation actually do. Is it possible to use our existing scripting environment to build the necessary pieces instead of using scripts from the documaker install? If it’s not possible, can we get a look at the documaker scripts before we run them?
The installation process (currently) writes the scripts according to responses provided during the installation process. The scripts can be reviewed/modified prior to execution.
We would like to know if WAS 8.5 is supported, or if version 7.0.0.27 in the requirements pdf is the only version supported?
The official supported version of WAS is 7.0.0.27, however WAS 8.5 may be suitable (I believe there might be a fix pack requirement there - would recommend you submit a question to Oracle Support for verification).
