Hi there,
I've searched here and Google and can't seem to find an answer to my questions.
First, the base operating system is CentOS and I am installing the latest SQL Developer v19.2.1.247.2212.
I am trying to prevent the Auto-Updater and Usage Tracking prompts from firing at initial launch (we are deploying SQL Developer, attempting to make it smooth for the end user).
Some information I found online talks about two flags in the sqldeveloper.conf:
AddVMOption -Dide.cfu.autoskip=true
AddVMOption -nonag
The ide.cfu.autoskip option works perfectly.
With -nonag enabled as-shown, the UI will not launch. Attempting launch from a command line results in the following error:
Unrecognized option: -nonag
Launching manually from the command line using -nonag as a parameter doesn't show the error, but the UI launches and still bugs us about the usage tracking.
I suspect the options may have changed from older versions, but I am struggling to find documentation on what options are available. My apologies if I'm missing something here.
In digging around the configuration files, I did find some references to other available options in a line of the ide.conf:
AddVMOption -Doracle.ide.IdeFrameworkCommandLineOptions=-clean,-console,-debugmode,-migrate,-migrate:,-nomigrate,-nonag,-nondebugmode,-noreopen,-nosplash,-role:,-su
I've tried adding AddVMOption -nomigrate and -nosplash with similar results as above.
I would also like to prevent the migration dialog box (this is an upgrade installation), so I'm hopeful that once I can cross the -nonag bridge, I'll do the same thing with -nomigrate. :-)
Appreciate any help anyone can provide with this admittedly low-priority issue.
Thanks again.
-Todd
