Software Deployment

This is nice scripting, but i found it way to many lines, for what is worth it.

I know that WMI has nice features, so i went to search a script for uninstall all our old Java version (this peace of software realy sucks didn't it?)

So here my small script :

 @ECHOOFF

cls
TITLE Uninstalling Java 6... (x86 and x64 versions)

wmic product where "name like 'Java(TM) 6%%'" call uninstall /nointeractive
goto END

:END
pause
exit

And its magic, but it works !

Tested it on XP / Vista / W7 in some cases there was even a JRE7 version installed yet.

So i think many people will love this :D

 

hf + leave some remarks

this is cool, but i thought it was way to many scripting, i did know that wmi has superb lines.

I tested some and look at this : 

  @ECHOOFF

cls
TITLE Uninstalling Java 6... (x86 and x64 versions)

wmic product where "name like 'Java(TM) 6%%'" call uninstall /nointeractive
goto END

:END
pause
exit

I have tested in XP / vista / W7 and it all works ! 

Well, I meant to post this sooner but between work and getting sick it got delayed. Version 3.0 of the script can keep OR remove only specific versions of Java! It also runs on command line parameters now! This one hasn't been as extensively tested as the other scripts since I'm not using it in production. As always with a script on the Internet use with caution and at your own risk!

This post has been made 12 years ago. AND IT STILL WORK 12 YEARS AFTER! Thanks a lot for your tip!

ORIGINAL: VBScab

[sigh...] ...the script - while undoubtedly pretty and effective - is, like so many I see, almost completely without error-trapping.



Then modify it to include error handling. [;)]

I don't code at all; I was impressed that I could generally follow what was happening.

My coworker added the ability to exclude a version of the JRE. He isn't a VBS person, but it seems to work. Here is his version.

Dan,

You're addition is pretty much what I would have advised anyway. Thanks.

VBScab,

I appreciate the comments about error trapping.

Error-Trapping is immensely time consuming. Therefore I tailor the error-trapping I do to the risk / likelyhood / probability of the errors occurring. I used Altiris NS to push out the script. The calling script copied the logs back to a central location, and I could see from NS if the process was attempted. Therefore:
1: If the script failed catastrophically before logging anything, I would see the script fail from NS.
2: If any other part of the script failed, I would see from NS that the computer does not have all Java versions removed and I would see from the Log exactly what happened up to that point.
3: I use this script on Windows XP SP2 and SP3 computers only. If any of those computers fail to create the only two objects I use here (WScript.Shell and Scripting.FileSystemObject) the computer would have far more problems than running my script.
4: I have run it on 216 computers so far remotely (extended pilot) and the script has not failed yet (no excuse though).
5: If I did not have the time constraints I had, I would not have shelled out at all in the Pre-Flight sub. I would have retrieved the registry settings directly using the stdRegProv. I only shelled out in this sub to retain the same format used by muaddip in his original effort. Having said that, I completely accept your point about checking the variable contains data, under normal circumstances.
6: I also take the point about killing the process / checking it's dead. But if the msiexec process fails to uninstall one of the versions because the process is still running, the msiexec return code will be logged in the log.

SO ... I agree completely with your critique, however I believe that the effort you put into error-trapping has to be proportionate to the chances of an error occurring undetected. In my case (and I only wrote the script for my situation, sharing was a courtesy), it was virtually impossible for the script to fail and me not know about it.

Many thanks,
Daz.

Jean ... look that article about the return codes!

Some return codes will try to perform the installation again, other give the SMS a failed message and other return a successfully!

http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/mniehaus/archive/2005/03/16/4018.aspx

If everythings ocurrs fine... return "0"!

I hope this can help you!

Alas, I do not code. Therefor I am limited to what I can get people to do for me.

Here is our latest version. It is slightly reworked to avoid some false positives.

I couldn't understand what this part ll do

If Not fso.FolderExists(strTempISS) Then fso.CreateFolder(strTempISS)
Do While Not tsIn.AtEndOfStream
strUninstLine = tsIn.ReadLine
CLSID = Mid(strUninstLine, 73, 38)
search5 = Instr(strUninstLine, "JRE 1")
search6 = Instr(strUninstLine, "]")
If search5 > 0 AND search6 > 0 Then
strJRE1 = Replace(Mid(strUninstLine, search5, search6),"]","")
End If

the above code part is reading the lines from unisntall.tmp.... what would be the value of "strJRE1"
My system has 3 JRE versions... JRE 1.5.0 update 15, update 22... JRE 16 update 13
I'm getting no value in strJRE1...

What are u trying to get at this part

sJREUninstallString = wshShell.RegRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\" & strJRE1 & "\UninstallString")
strJREDisplayName = wshShell.RegRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\" & strJRE1 & "\DisplayName")


strUninstallString = wshShell.RegRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\" & CLSID & "\UninstallString")

The uninstall string line returns empty string... How can i get the uninstall string

Please guide me...
So that i can finish my apache uninstall code...
So far what i'vedone in my code

Dim wshShell, fso, strLogPath, sTemp, strTempDir, strTempISS, tsIn, strUninstLine, CLSID, search5, search6, strJRE, strPublisher

On Error Resume Next

searchCurVer = InStr(1,strDisplayVersion,"2.2.16",1)
If searchCurVer >0 Then
CurVerFound = True
WScript.Echo "Apache Http Server 2.2.16 is already installed...."

End if
End If
End if


Loop
tsIn.Close
WScript.Quit(0)





I've to proceed futher with the elseif part of currentversion... in my apache code such as

If searchCurVer > 0 Then
CurVerFound = True
ElseIf strJREUninstallString <> "" Then

For Your reference
Here is my uninstall.tmp

But i need to know what would be the strJREUninstallString.. based on that .. i can change the code and ll finish apache uninstall code...
Please help me out...
Thanks in advance...



Regards,
uma

Thought I'd post my modification to allow for 32 bit versions of Java installed on 64 bit Vista/7/2008 machines. Basically it uses a second temp file for uninstall routines found in the WOW6432Node section of the registry and changes the formula for CLSID for these as well (an 85 character offset rather than 73). I am sure that this modification could be prettier in the code, but this is the easiest.

Btw. Thanks for the previous posts. They have helped tremendously.

It seems the Uninstall GUID in registry is based on the version with a common part of the GUID, so that might also be a way to test/uninstall. I tried googling for a complete list of JAVA versions and GUID's with not much luck (thanks Oracle...). Maybe someone can use this info as well.

For JRA6 the common part seems to be: {26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F8321*
Older versions seems to use: {3248F0A8-6813-11D6-A77B-00B0D0*

An example for JRE6 Update 30:


Set JREVersion=60
Set JREUpdate=30
Set JAVAUninstallKey={26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F8321%JREVersion%%JREUpdate%FF}
Set UninstallGUID=Start /Wait MsiExec.exe /qb- /norestart /x

%UninstallGUID% %JAVAUninstallKey%

This is what I ended up doing:

rem in case of broken old install
copy /y regutils.dll "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\"

rem breaks install if run twice! 2nd to last 2 numbers is version
reg query HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F83216030FF}
if errorlevel 1 start /wait msiexec.exe /i jre1.6.0_30.msi /qn

rem check it's there and return error code
dir "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\new_plugin\npjp2.dll"


Great wmic tip. How about this for uninstalling all versions?

wmic product where "name like 'Java(TM) 6 Update %'" call uninstall

I can offer you this 3-Line-Solution:

set mycmd=reg query HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall /s /f *http://java.com*
for /f " usebackq delims={} tokens=2" %%i IN (`%mycmd%`) do (
    msiexec /uninstall {%%i} /passive
)

Also documented in my Wiki:

http://en.wiki.schrotti12.eu/index.php/Remove_all_old_Java_versions

I've taken an approach suggested by a few people to use a WMI query but I've wrapped it up in a full powershell script that will find all 6 and 7 versions of JRE and uninstall them without any unexpected reboots from the Uninstall() method.

Its a short and clean script that will work for any Update version including any new ones that come out from Oracle.

 

See the full blog post and script at my blog site: http://24by7365.wordpress.com/2013/08/08/1823/

My way of uninstalling Java is not the prettiest, but it works solid, here is my take on it:

Use this as PwershellScript

$appToMatch = '*NAME OF THE APPLICATION*'

$e=$MyInvocation.InvocationName

$pshome

$log=$env:temp+'\PSuninstall.log'

function Get-InstalledApps

{

    Log-write $log 'Start Get-InstalledApps'

    if ([IntPtr]::Size -eq 4) {

        $regpath = 'HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\*'

        Log-write $log 'Found x86'

    }

    else {

        $regpath = @(

            'HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\*'

            'HKLM:\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\*'

        )

        Log-write $log 'Found x64'

    }

    Get-ItemProperty $regpath | .{process{if($_.DisplayName -and $_.UninstallString) { $_ } }} | Select DisplayName, Publisher, InstallDate, DisplayVersion, UninstallString |Sort DisplayName

}

Function Log-Write{

  Param ([Parameter(Mandatory=$true)][string]$LogPath, [Parameter(Mandatory=$true)][string]$LineValue) 

    

   Process{ 

     Add-Content -Path $LogPath -Value $LineValue 

   } 

} 

Log-write $log 'Startinging script'

#if running in x86 mode restart in x64 mode.

if ($PSHome -match 'syswow')

{

    Log-write $log 'Found syswow'

    Log-write $log 'Shell to x64 version'

    start-process "C:\Windows\sysnative\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" -arg "-ExecutionPolicy bypass  -file $e" -Wait

    Log-write $log 'Return from x64 version; exiting'

    exit

}

$result = Get-InstalledApps | where {$_.DisplayName -like $appToMatch}

$result 

Log-write $log 'Found these isntalled apps:'

ForEach ($u in $result) 

{

    $UnInstall = $u.UninstallString 

    $UnInstall = $UnInstall.Trim()

    $UnInstall = $UnInstall -Replace "msiexec.exe","" -Replace "/I","" -Replace "/X",""

    $UnInstall = $UnInstall.Trim()

    Log-write $log $UnInstall

    Log-write $log 'Start MSIExec'

    start-process "msiexec.exe" -arg "/X $UnInstall /qn /l*v $env:TEMP\$UnInstall.log" -Wait

    Log-write $log 'After MSIExec'

} 

I can see you posted this a year ago, but I've only just found it. You've done all the hard work for me. Great work, well done.

I will be using a version of your script: can you tell me if you've found any problems with it in the wild since you posted it?

Daz - You rock. Thanks for the script. Very pretty.

One question... I have a install base with all manner of ancient JREs. (I recently saw a 1.3 version.) I am pushing the current version with a GPO, but I would like to clean up the old ones.

Your script looks ideal, but I don't know how to exclude the current version[1] of the JRE from being uninstalled. How hard is that?

How do you use the script?

Thanks again.

Dan

[1] As of 03/18/09 it is version 6.0.120 {26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F83216012FF}

Error-Trapping is immensely time consuming.Daz, point taken but

a) check out some of the MS scripts which feature a routine called BugAssert. It makes the job a breeze. Used once, you'll never trot out that excuse again. :)
b) my point was generic rather than specific. In your usage, it no doubt runs to completion 100% of the time. I was trying to guide folks who might adopt it for their own use that that Utopian environment may not exist.

VBScab,

Fair points, well made.

bugassert ...

I think I found what you mean: a nice simple technique Sub BugAssert (bTest, sErrMsg) - I like it. Simple solutions always appeal to me :o)

I only found the technique via the MS forums though (searched for: "bugassert" site:microsoft.com on google) but I like the idea.

Cheers,
Daz.

I think I found what you mean: a nice simple technique Sub BugAssert (bTest, sErrMsg) - I like it. Simple solutions always appeal to me :o)Spot on. Nice, eh?

Hello,

First I wanted to thank you guys for this script. I am testing deploying it via SCCM/SMS and wanted to know if it's ok to change the exit code from 99 to something else. I can follow the code, but I am not an expert, do I just change it here "qVal = 99" ?

SCCM considers 99 as a failure.

Thanks

ORIGINAL: JeanM

Hello,

do I just change it here "qVal = 99" ?

Thanks


Hi Jean,

Yes you can just change that line to determine the exit code for if the script did not find any Sun JRE versions to uninstall. I always use 99 in my scripts to mean 'Job not required or already run'.

Daz.

Jean,

Please note that Galen Dobbs' later version of my script sets qVal to 99 in more than one place.

I suggest that you, and indeed anyone using these scripts, tests, tests, tests and tests again before rolling any version of this script out to your live estate.

Regards and good luck,
Daz.

Please note that Galen Dobbs' later version of my script sets qVal to 99 in more than one place.Hmmm...[criticism removed]The exit code should be contained in a Constant. That way, if someone has a requirement to use a different value, the change would only need to be made in one place.

Thanks guys, I am using the version that doesn't install anything. So far I've been testing this script against my VM machines and deployed to a collection of test pc's via SCCM successfully.

Might want to check the OS architecture and include the following reg path in the PreFlight for 64bit systems: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall". [8|]

This is an old thread but i'll try to resurrect the topic.

Whenever I try to run ComputerX latest script, it fails on:
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystem.Object")

I get an ActiveX 800A004c path not found errors. This happens locally and when I push via SMS.

Thoughts?

Whenever I try to run ComputerX latest script, it fails on:
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystem.Object")


if that's copy-pasted from your script, I suggest you give the original another read...
In other words
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystem.Object")

Hmm. I'll need to look at my work computer and see how it's written. I was typing from an iPad yesterday so I may have typed it in wrong when i was responding back to the thread. Hopefully that is it. :)

I ran across this and the script is just what I need. The only problem I'm running into is this: The uninstall works fine, but on installation, it wants me to click to allow the executable to run (get a security warning).

Is there a way around this? Probably need a different implementation, but I was just running it out of a vbs script.

That's an XP thing, perhaps applied via GroupPolicy? There's nothing a package can do to bypass that.

it wants me to click to allow the executable to run (get a security warning).

Right-click the file that's throwing this warning, go to properties and see if there's an "Unblock" button. If there is, click it.
Another option is to try notepad <your file>:Zone.Identifier, this will show you the stream containing this value.

This has to do with the file's ZoneIdentifier telling windows it comes from an untrusted location

I would be nice to see some explanation around bugassert
I think this is pretty much it:

' --- BUGASSERT (yes, it's for debugging) --------
Sub BugAssert (bTest, sErrMsg)
' BugAssert is a Bruce McKinney creation.
' It is used to test for intermediate results...
if bTest then Exit Sub
MsgBox "Error Detected by BugAssert: " & vbCr & vbCr & sErrMsg, _
vbCritical, " << BugAssert FAILED >> "
WScript.Quit
End Sub

This script works great, but I have 2 different Java versions that I do not want removed. Can anyone help me with adjusting the script for that?

I ran across this and the script is just what I need.  The only problem I'm running into is this:  The uninstall works fine, but on installation, it wants me to click to allow the executable to run (get a security warning).

I created a batch that unchecks this bit in the registry, calls the vbs script, then rechecks the bit using this poke:
reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Download" /v RunInvalidSignatures /t Reg_Dword /d 1 /f
The recheckin doesn't seem to take effect until after a reboot but at least it lets you do the uninstall, re-install, etc.

The script works great for all older versions, however I can't get it to un-install "Java(TM) 6 Update 22" or "Java(TM) 6 Update 22" . Looking at the old in c:\logs it never sees either 22 or 23 but is leaving 24 fine.

Any ideas would be a great help. Thanks in advance.

The only thing I can think of is that you are now working on an x64 box. See my above post.

First, thanks to the original creators of this script. It's pretty awesome.

Here's an updated version of the script I created for our computer labs. It's strictly an uninstall script but it will preserve a desired version. If you want to capture the script log you have to run it from a CMD file like so "cscript /nologo JavaUninstallScript.vbs >> P:\athto\logfile.txt". The script does create log files for each individual uninstall in a specified path.

Two caveats:
1. Java versions 1.3.0_05 and 1.3.1_05 to 1.3.1_20 can't be uninstalled silently. At least I couldn't find a way after a week of searching and testing. This script reflects that.
2. Java versions 1.4.0 to 1.4.1_07 have an uninstaller "bug". If you have two or more of these versions installed and uninstall one it breaks the uninstall for the others as ActPanel.dll gets removed and the other uninstallers error out on it. You have to remove the uninstall info for the other versions from the registry and reinstall them again to remove them properly. You might be able to get around this in the script by changing "SharedFile=YesToAll" to "SharedFile=NoToAll" in CreateISSFile but I haven't tested that yet. It may also leave lots of cruft on the system.

LabDeploy, I ran your script from 3/21/2011 today via a GPO as a computer startup script and upon a GPUPDATE /FORCE and restart of my test system, I noticed that the script did execute but unfortunately it didn't do so silently (which for right now, during my testing phase, this is a good thing). Is there a specific switch I need to add to the script's parameters to ensure that it runs silently?

Secondly, it did detect the only previous version of Java that was installed in my test system (6_18) but was unable to uninstall it and it resulted in an error
As the script runs, it detects the jqs.exe process and then says it successfully killed the jqs.exe process but goes on to report finding 6_18:
Uninstall string: MSIEXEC.EXE /X {26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F83216018F0} /qn /norestart /l*v "C:\logs\Java(TM) 6 Update 18_Uninstall.txt)
followed by
Uninstall return code: 1622
and after closing the final windows then comes a short series of fast computer beeps (about 10 or so).

I then looked at the C:\ drive and unfortunately there was no C:\logs\Java(TM) 6 Update 18_Uninstall.txt found.

Any idea what's going on? I appreciate the time you put into updating this script and whatever input you or anyone else may have on my issue.
Thank you.

pndragon, couple of points about this version of the script.

It was originally written to be included in an SCCM deployment as part of a package of scripts that would remove Java and install the newest version. I never tested it as a startup script but I think I see what happened.

It makes a few assumptions, which isn't really a good thing for a standalone startup script. It assumes that the log file directory already exists and is writable to the user account running the script. In this case the script is writing to %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Logs as set here:

'Set the logfile path here.
strPathToLog = objWSHShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%SYSTEMDRIVE%") & "\logs\"

in the RemoveJava function. If that directory doesn't exist you'll see the 1622 errors with MSI packages. That error means MSIEXEC couldn't write to the logfile. You could modify the script to create/check for that directory but I find it's easier to run the script from a batch file and use "MD %SYSTEMDRIVE%\logs" at the top of the batch file to create the desired logging directory. Saves a lot of tedious object creation and error checking in a VBS script. Using IF EXIST in the batch file to check for the log directory is also advisable.

The script was also not designed to be run silently. As part of a SCCM package it was intended to be run when no user was present, like overnight. Running the script in batch mode "cscript /nologo /b JavaUninstallScript.vbs" will suppress any messages from the script but I don't know if it prevent a CMD window from opening. Redirecting the output using ">>" in a batch file will also suppress errors and create a log file.

As for the beeping... there I can't help you. No idea what caused that. [&:]

Hope that helps.

Hello,
my way is also not the prettiest - but it´s easy - and cleary to read ...
copy the code - make .bat file - finished... last line i install the 1_6_33 JAVA for example...

Found a fantastic gotcha with SCCM on 64bit machines while testing this script. Our main deployment scenario is to 32bit machines. This script was tested on 32bit and 64bit machines as an admin user and on 32bit machines under SCCM. Worked great for our purposes. Turns out it didn't work great under SCCM on 64bit machines.

The SCCM client was running the script in a 32bit environment on a 64bit OS so all script calls to the registry were being reflected to the Wow6432Node branch. Essentially the script couldn't see the 64bit uninstall keys in the registry and was running through the 32bit uninstall keys twice. I've updated the script with a new method of calling the registry so it should always see the complete registry even when running in a 32bit environment under 64bit Windows. It's been working well in our testing so far.

I also added a bit more error output if an error does get caught and changed the InstallShield uninstall template file to NOT remove shared files. This fixes the bug with Java versions 1.4.x removing a shared file all the 1.4.x uninstallers rely on. It leaves a few DLLs on the system but the security increase of removing all old Java versions outweighs that in our environment.

Adding a bit of code to RemoveJava() to check for/create the desired logfile directory would make this pretty much a standalone removal script.

Please modify as needed. If you find a bug or add a useful modification please post it back!

Is it possible to set the script so that it will keep more than 1 version of Java?

strCurrentVersion = "Java(TM) 6 Update 24"

Newbie question. How exactly do I run this script?

I have tested this script on a VM with 3 different versions installed and it works pretty good. It took me a while to figure out I had to run it from and Administrative Command Window, but once I did that it worked really well. I have to ask now how you guys are running this with SCCM. I thought it would be fairly simple, but what I did ended up not working.

I created a package with no source files. For the program for that package I put this in the command line cscript /nologo \\SCCMSERVER\source$\apps\javauninstallscript.vbs /keeponly /versions:"Java(TM) 6 Update 25" I have it set to run hidden and gave it run as administrator when a user is logged on. Can someone enlighten my on the error of my ways.

Thanks

Yes, I probably should have pointed out it requires admin rights to run.

It's really best to run this script with a batch file. Frankly I never have much luck trying to run a VBS with parameters in SCCM, the parameters never take quite right for me. I also never run install or uninstall packages when a user is logged in. There's too many chances something the user does screws up the package (reboots, shutdown, is running a browser instance that blocks the plugin update, etc.). That's just me though and I'm a bit paranoid about my SCCM deployments.

You might want to make a package with the script and a CMD to run it in the SCCM program settings. (Please note I haven't actually tested this code, it's off the top of my head for example purposes. I'm also a logging freak if you can't tell.) Like so:


MD "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\SomePathToLogs"
cscript /nologo JavaUninstallScript.vbs /keeponly /versions:"Java(TM) 6 Update 25" /logfilepath:"%SYSTEMDRIVE%\SomePathToLogs" >> "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\SomePathToLogs\JavaUninstallLog.txt"


ORIGINAL: pjgeutjens

it wants me to click to allow the executable to run (get a security warning).

Right-click the file that's throwing this warning, go to properties and see if there's an "Unblock" button. If there is, click it.
Another option is to try notepad <your file>:Zone.Identifier, this will show you the stream containing this value.

This has to do with the file's ZoneIdentifier telling windows it comes from an untrusted location

You can also use the Streams utility from sysinternals. link below.

Hi, this is really a good script. But can't it be made so that it install the version you have specified, as this example I have found.

The example works fine on xp but destroy the java in winodws 7 (if it is run more than 1 time.) it, can't see the version that are installed.

I ran into a big problem with this script in my environment. It doesn't properly detect the currently installed version as current. It attempts to run in the Java installer again, and when it does, it breaks the installation. The only way I've been able to fix this is to go machine to machine by hand, install the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility, and force remove the application.

Looks like this is going to be our procedure for 300 PCs every time there's an update to Java.

Trying really hard to suppress my hatred for Oracle at the moment.

wmic product where name="Java(TM) 6 Update 29" call uninstall [;)]

I would like to share a batch script I created to execute this script. Just in case you're in a small company without AD or any other advanced methods of deployment. As long as you have psexec you can setup machine profiles via txt files and push the removal and installation of JAVA via the vbs script. For your group lists, name them GROUPusers.txt, where GROUP=a group name you would like to assign to the machines in that list. Then when you create the lists, you can use the machine names, entering each one on a new line.

EDIT: I used LabDeploy's posted script from 4/24/2011 9:30:00 PM

EDIT: Removed the multiLists variable and created a check against the _groups variable. So you no longer have to specify that its a multi-group list, it checks the _groups variable on its own and performs the correct operation.

A colleague and I struggled with this for months. We had multiple JRE versions in our organisation and needed to standardise on a single version (JRE6U29). Something else that complicated our situation was that we were running Oracle which relied on Jinitiator versions 22 and 26. Now if anyone is familiar with these systems, you would most likely be familiar with the JVM.dll issue where one has to overwrite the jinitator JVM.dll with the JRE jvm.dll file. We also needed to untick the Enable Next Generation plugin, the IE Java Applet, Hide The Java Console, Never Check For Updates, Hide The Updates Tab and Enable Hide Warning and Run With Protections under mixed mode security. We automated all of these settings with registry keys and using a deployments.properties file and a deployment.config file which is very useful. Read more info relating to this here:

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/deployment/deployment-guide/properties.html

Since we still run XP and IE7, we also had to reinstall Java Virtual machine on all of our workstations which we included in our script as well as the copying of the Oracle Jinitator JVM.dll files.

The sequence of our Script is as follows:

1. Killing IE and Java processes
2. Uninstalling all previous versions of JRE using a VB Script by means of WMI
3. Clearing the registry of the Javasoft string as this leaves traces of old versions despite uninstalling.
4. Installing Java Virtual Machine
5. Installing JRE6U29
6. Creating C:\Windows\Sun\Java\Deployment directory to copy deployment. Properties and config file.
7. Copying deployment and config files to C:\Windows\Sun\Java\Deployment
8. Backing up and renaming jvm.dll file
9. Copying new JVM.dll file
10. Disable Java plugin
11. Disable Java Auto update Tab in the Java Control panel.

Our Script Has Two Parts.

1. Batch script executed to kill processes then runs the VB script.
2. VB script uninstalls all versions of JRE then resumes the next step of the batch script

A nice final touch to this script would be for somebody to add some kind of validation to check whether the version that you are wanting to install exists on the machine and if so, only do the automations for the various ticks to the Vb portion of the script. We packaged our script with exports of our reg keys and deployment files with winrar and deployed to all of our workstations using Config Manager without any hassles. Our next challenge is finding a way to silently uninstall all versions of Jinitiator.

Hopefully some of you will find this useful.

Good work! Have you posted this to the 'Package KB'? If not, please do.

Thanks, I could only post it under notes for JRE6U29, hope this is okay.

I initially wrote this PowerShell script to auto-update Java silently, but after some testing I came across various problematic scenarios which made me look into silent uninstalls, which have now been implemented in the script. There's an -UninstallFirst parameter that, if a new version of Java is found on the java.com website, will cause Java to be uninstalled, and the new version to be installed. There is also an -UninstallOnly parameter which is most relevant to this thread. The logic in these scripts in this thread relies in either Win32_Product or the registry being parsed for a string that matches something, and, if so, uninstall the product/application.

Due to the issues mentioned with Win32_Product (it actually checks all installed products' integrity, and thus is slow, and potentially even harmful), I parse the registry, as the initial poster of the scripts does.

The string is a wildcard string, as interpreted by the -Like operator in PowerShell, and is configurable in the accompanying configuration file (technically you could use this script to uninstall any product with the uninstall string and using the -UninstallOnly parameter).

More information can be found in the article about the script here: http://www.powershelladmin.com/wiki/PowerShell_Java_Auto-Update_Script

I don't see any need for long and convoluted scripts to remove Java when you can simply use the built-in uninstall commands like:

START /WAIT /MIN WMIC product where "Name LIKE 'Java(TM) 6 Update%%'" call uninstall /nointeractive

That line works perfectly fine. 

The problem with using the second line for java removal is that it will uninstall any software that has java in it's name e.g. free javascript editor.

I am having trouble decoding this part of your script 

 

if %ERRORLEVEL% == 0 start /w %~dp0\MSJavx86.exe /c:"javatrig.exe /exe_install /l /q /qq" /q:a 

/r:n
%~dp0\jre-6u29-windows-i586-s.exe /s /v"AgreeToLicense=YES IEXPLORER=0 MOZILLA=0 REBOOT=SUPRESS 

JAVAUPDATE=0"

Is this required?

%~dp0\MSJavx86.exe /c:"javatrig.exe /exe_install /l /q /qq" /q:a /r:n

 

Not sure why everyone is writing hundred lines of code for what can be accomplished through WMIC in 2 lines of batch. It's already been posted multiple times in this thread.

In the interest of sharing, below is pasted my Sun Java uninstall all script, originally based on the one above by muaddip. I have tightened it up a bit and it now fully logs to "C:\Logs\Java_Uninstall_%COMPUTERNAME%". It will create C:\Logs if it does not exist.

The script does not rely on any batch files as it performs the same function from within the PreFlight() sub in the script. It is self-contained and silent.

The script will exit with return codes:
99 if no Sun JRE versions were found to uninstall.
1 if an exit code from one the uninstalls was not 0 or 3010 (reboot required).

When I used this search, it produced only one article and it was in German (of course the code wasn't). I would be nice to see some explanation around bugassert.

Great job, LabDeploy!! After a lot of trial/error and tweaking, I managed to run your latest script from our Kace. Thank you!!!

Great script ! Guys, Can someone modify the script to uninstall only few specific versions while not disturbing other versions of Java on a server ? We do this regularly on servers but now server count has also increased. So retrieving server names from a list within the script might also help here.

Immensely useful discussion and code. Thanks all!

Very pretty[sigh...] Whilst not wishing to belittle anybody's efforts, the script - while undoubtedly pretty and effective - is, like so many I see, almost completely without error-trapping. The drum I continually bang about scripting (and programming in general) is: assume NOTHING. Does the script create an object? Then it should check to see if it got created. Grabbing a line from a text file to a variable? Does the variable contain any data? Killing a process? Did it get killed? You get the idea.

Fantastic !  I tested with having 3 different versions of Java installed (7.4, 6.39 and 5.12)

I ran this code in a batch file to uninstall all 3 versions. (Ran from an administrative level command prompt.) Will test running as a task sequence to install the lattest version after this batch file.
