Hi, have someone successfully deployed new installations and updates for JRE x86 clients to Windows 7 (x86/x64) with Group Policy "Software Installation"`?
- What I see is that if adding a 7.51 msi as stand-alone installer and deploy this to x86 machine than it will not be installed (not visable in Add Or Remove programs but there is an instane visable via "Windows Installer Clean Up" tool. Running the same installer from same network share manually does install it correctly.
- If I manually uninstall version 7.40 from the client (deployed via GPO) then I see the following DLL error:
- "There was a problem starting C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\\installer.dll"
- If I press "OK" it does proceed but this is the case why it is not uninstalled silently (via command line or GPO).
- Or has anyone deployed the Java Autoupater for the domain users so that it would make a automatic update from Oracle server daily?
- I do not see the "update" ribbon in Configure Java
- nor I do not see jucheck.exe in /bin/ folder
So in the end - what would be the best practice to keep all the of domain computer always with most resent Java Runtime? I cannot relay on users prompt "please update" not it is nonsense to make a manuall effort for all the host one by one for admin..
