jrf2027 Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Same switches as before for .msi-based install? I won't be able to test for about four more hours. (Grabbed the .msi from temp folder while installing on my work machine.)I'll edit to post results after I test it.EDIT: Yeah, the same switches work in this version as worked in the original 5.0 install.

One thing that's changed is that NETSCAPE6 is no longer a valid command.http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/...ide/silent.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acheron Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 Ryan, you can also use this:jre50.msi /qb-! /passive REBOOT=ReallySuppress SYSTRAY=0 WEBSTARTICON=0 ADDLOCAL=jrecore IEXPLORER=1 MOZILLA=1 JAVAUPDATE=0This prevents the coffeecup in systray.And your site is offline.
