ji46 Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Open config.ini with Wordpad at the top of the file is this:[General]; Run Mode values:; Normal - Shows all dialogs. Requires user input.; Auto - Shows some dialogs, but none requiring user input. It will; automatically install the product using default values.; Silent - Show no dialogs at all. It will install product using default; values.Run Mode=NormalJust change Run Mode=Normal to Run Mode=Silent and save the file. Job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seapagan Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 I would still, as always, recommend 'Silence of the Foxes', avaliable here. Confirmed to work with the latest 1.0.7 version. It will allow you to add all your extensions, themes, bookmarks, personal touches etc into one silent installer.SP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ji46 Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 (edited) Download the Windows (Offline Installation) version of Java from http://java.com/en/download/windows_xpi.jspstart the installation as usual. Accept the licence agreement and then look for the following files at C:\Documents and Settings\ <Your User name will be here> \Local Settings\Application Data\{3248F0A6-6813-11D6-A77B-00B0D0150050} (these numbers and letters are purely random so will be anything).In this folder will be two files called 1033.MST and J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 5.msiSave these files to another folder in your unattended setup. Start the installation usingc:\folder name\J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 5.msi /qb (Just checked the Application Data folder is hidden unless you use Control Panel-->Folder Options-->View-->Show hidden folders and files) Edited October 14, 2005 by ji46 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DigeratiPrime Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 another vote for silence of the foxes.i used to use the -ms switch but the aforementioned method is the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seapagan Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 you seem to have a typo in your code :REG ADD %KEY%\035 /VE /D "jre505" /fREG ADD %KEY%\040 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\jre\jre505.exe /"should probably be :REG ADD %KEY%\035 /VE /D "jre505" /fREG ADD %KEY%\040 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\jre\jre505.exe" /fSP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
