retailmessiah Posted April 4, 2004 Share Posted April 4, 2004 Greetings. I'm new to using your program, and this forum. Let me try this. I looked through the forum first, and found someone trying to do the same thing that I am, except he was using SP1a, and didn't have any pre-existing version of the program on his cd. I however am using a cd as my base with regular sp1 on it.Does that mean that I can drop msjavwu.exe into one of the SVC- folders, and it will work? I tried a run with it in the SVC-HF2 folder, and it didn't work, because it didn't take enough switches.Ideas?-ph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenMachine Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 @retailmessiah: I justed tested (again) the MSJAVWU.EXE update in SVC-HF2, and it worked fine on Virtual PC. I am not sure what you mean about taking enough switches ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComputerGuy Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 Don't know if this was discussed elsewhere, but...I found this web site while chasing threads on this very topic (except I'm working with W2K sp4).http://corob.net/msjava/He came up with a trick method of installing MSVM on W2K or XP with any service pack version. Although he doesn't really detail it, if you're using IExpress to make a custom MS JAVA installer (after extracting/integrating the 2 packages as described), just add the switches he suggests where you select the executable "javatrig.exe". For full unattended installation without reboot, the string should look like this: "javatrig.exe /l /exe_install /nowincheck /q".I launch the package from RunOnceEx without additional switches... works cherry! It works fine as a standalone installer, too.CGPS> This is my first time posting on this forum. I tip my (virtual) hat to the crew of MSFN and all it's contributors. Excellent work!!!
