erik_demon Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 There is a new version of sun java available.Download the newest java version hereThe silent install isn't like the old on, since they now use installshield.Here's the trick1. Start the installation of Java, but don't go further then the licence screen. This way the installer will create an MSI file.2. Don't exit the installion. If you do, the MSI file will dissappear. Browse to the map: C:\Documents and Settings\<your name>\Local Settings\Temp3. Copy the MSI file (the name is variable It's about 10 MB) To a location of choice on your harddrive.4. Exit the setup.5. Change the name of your MSI file to: setup.msi (you don't have to do this, but it is much easyer to remember when you put it in your batch.)6. Now in the command prompt, you can use the following command: <Location>\Msiexec /i setup.msi /qbGood luck!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denney Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Or you can just run the exe file with "/v/qb". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acheron Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 If yuo prefer to use the MSI you can use the following command (RunOncEx.cmd):REG ADD %KEY%\007 /VE /D "Sun Java VM 1.5.0 RC" /fREG ADD %KEY%\007 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\SunJava\jre150rc.msi /qb REBOOT=ReallySuppress" /f Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
