CA Client Automation

Hi, I have created package to upgrade the JRE to version 8 update 51 with the following switches:

INSTALL_SILENT=1 REBOOT=0 WEB_JAVA=1 WEB_ANALYTICS=0 NOSTARTMENU=1 /L C:\Temp\JRE_install.log

After deployment, the status shows successfull but after cross verifying, I did not found JRE installed on any machine.

I also tried msi for the same but it is giving 1603 error.

If anyone is using different command/switch with the package please let me know so that I can test it.

Regards,

Mohd Wasique

Hi Wasique,

CA Patch Manager creates SD package executing a DM Script which executes following command line :

Example for JRE 8 Update 51 :

msiexec /i jre1.8.0_51.msi /passive /norestart /qn ADDLOCAL=ALL IEXPLORER=1 MOZILLA=1 REBOOT=Suppress /L c:\Windows\Temp\jre1.log

You could also generate detailed logs with

/L*v C:\Temp\JRE_install.log

and open the log C:\Temp\JRE_install.log to check why installation is failing.

Thanks.

Jean-Yves

Hi Wasique

Did you make any progress on this?

Of course if you use Patch Manage then you can use this to deploy the JRE update.

Wasique,

If you download the java setup files, then on a machine run java setup.

After answering a few questions, if you look in the  :

users\<current user>\AppData\LoalLow\Oracle\Java\

there should be the msi for java in that folder.

I would import that into SD and it will create the package for you, with the correct procedures for installing silently.

Hi Wasique

Have you solved this? If so did any of the suggestions help?
