Here is a beta version, it have room for improvements, but should works fine.
Please test & report.

JAVA-Multi_Maker_3.2b1.zip

 

Hi mooms,

Installer has been created, but:

1) No question about "administrative install"

2) Installer-size 35% bigger than with admin-installer

3) Very bad: it does not uninstall previous versions.

Regards, Thiersee

Edit: may be that point 3) has to do with the oracle-change in the installer?

Hi Thiersee,

 

1) and 2) are expected (it's a quick release, admin install will eventually come back when I have time to work on the script).

3) is unexpected: on my test  previous version(s)  was uninstalled.

Hi mooms,

I tried it many times in 2 VMs with the old and the new installer:

JRE 8u66 installed, then updated to 71/72 ---> 8u66 (8u71) has been uninstalled; updated the existing 8u72 to 8u73/74, 8u72 has not been uninstalled.

8u73 installed and updated to 8u74, 8u73 has not been uninstalled.

Edit:

I think I found what caused the error: in every line


ECHO SetEnvironment="DelOldVer=%%%%P:hidcon:cmd /c For /F \"tokens=2 delims={}\" %%a In ('Reg Query %%swUninst_%%%%P%% ^| FINDSTR \"%GUID%\"') Do exeExec /x{%%a}">> "32.cfg"


you wrote exeExec, but this command does not exist: I changed it in MSIexec and it works.

Installed 8u72, updated to 8u74: every time the previous (or already installed) version has been uninstalled.

An already installed 8u74 has been uninstalled too.

Unfortunately it doesn't work since Oracle switched java.com to https

Until @mooms change the util you can download the last Java from here

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre8-downloads-2133155.html;

put the downloaded files in the folder Java Multi Maker 3.2 and start the .cmd-file: you get your installer.

Hi mooms,

there is an issue with the new version, BTW the same as in february: the present (older) Java-version will not be uninstalled (but it doesn't seems tobe the same reason as in February ;)).

No matter if the older version has been installed with the original installer or with the repack (dual installer).

If I use the original installer I get a box to uninstall the old Java.

Regards, Thiersee

Sorry, but the code used to find the download URL was made by Strych9, and I don't know how to use curl. If someone is able to update it, it will be cool.

I have sent a PM to Strych9, let see if he responds.

In the meantime, you can download the file(s) with this URL (more convenient by the one given by Thiersee)

https://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp

then put the offline installer(s) in the same folder than the script, it will make installers as usual.

Here is a beta version for Java 9 JAVA-Multi_Maker_3.6b1.zip

You have to download the Java 9 x64 setup from here and copy it in the "JRE_setups" folder then launch "_JAVA_Multi_Maker.cmd".

Tested on Windows 10 x64, both normal and admin install works. It will uninstall any previous  x64 Java 7 or 8 version before installing Java 9, but keep x86 versions.

I don't know if Java 9 will have a x86 version, for this beta it's only x64.

I haven't tested if the browser plugins are installed.

Please test and report how it works.

 

Java 8 will be supported and updated until September 2018, so there is no hurry to update.

Hi mooms,

Oracle has not updated the Server yet, under the link is only the x64-version

You can download the x86 from here, but be careful, only manual installation (Manuelle Installation)
