after java installs, it reboots the machine and i cant seem to find a solution for it
anyways, i dont know when to install it so it wont disrupt any other programs
before, when i used RunOnceEx method, i just ran it normally and put a sleep command afterwards
it would reboot and startoff where it was
i just switched to wpi and im out of ideas
help?

RyanVM once said that theres no solution for this problem, he was contacting Sun.
Until he will have another good method, I use Microsoft Java, because the silent install runs perfect and it covers my needs.

This is what I use for the latest Java from Sun:

ECHO.
ECHO Installing Sun Java VM 5.0 update 1
ECHO Please wait...
start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\Applications\SunJava\Java50.exe /s /v"/qn ADDLOCAL=jrecore IEXPLORER=1 REBOOT=Suppress JAVAUPDATE=0"

No reboot

do you have to run it from systemdrive? or can you run it from cd

I really don't know.
I think it is possible, but I never install stuff from CD; always from my harddrive.

This is what I use.

jre1.5.0_01.msi Custom=1 IEXPLORER=1 MOZILLA=1 SYSTRAY=0 WEBSTARTICON=0 Reboot=Suppress /qb!-

It doesn't reboot. Please try it and post back results.

[lilweirddude]

ok i will

[lilweirddude]

It works!
thank you very much

[totoymola]

Good.

so it's the custom=1 switch that prevents the reboot, or the /qb-!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

/qb-! is what makes the dialog have no cancel button. What does the custom switch actually do?

According to http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/...ide/silent.html the CUSTOM=1 is a license thingie.

if CUSTOM=1 is used, the user will only see the license agreement, which must be accepted, and the progress bar.

And as a sidenote, it also says that WEBSTARTICON=0 isn't valid anymore.

Quote

There is no WEBSTARTICON=0 command-line option below, as there is for version 1.4.2. That is because version 5.0 (also known as 1.5.0) does not create a Java Web Start icon.
