Arthur Posted May 31, 2014 Posted May 31, 2014 Another day, another Java update. Java SE 7 Update 60 (expires 15th July 2014) Download (Windows: 32-bit, 64-bit / OS X: 64-bit) / Release Notes / Bugs Fixed New Features and Changes Java ignores deployment.expiration.check.enabled property for first launch If you have an older version of Java and expiration check is turned off through deployment.properties file, Java may ignore this property for first launch. To ensure that expiration check is disabled, use the following Java Web Start command: javaws -userConfig deployment.expiration.check.enabled false If this property is changed in the deployment.properties file, open the Java Control Panel before starting an application to ensure that the native cache is synchronized with the file. For more information, see Deployment Configuration File and Properties.
Sam_Brown Posted May 31, 2014 Posted May 31, 2014 After all these years and they still won't do an MSI...
free780 Posted May 31, 2014 Posted May 31, 2014 They do you have to copy the msi and a few other files from appdata/locallow/sun/deployment/jre etc
computer_expert Posted May 31, 2014 Posted May 31, 2014 After all these years and they still won't do an MSI... They do....you just need to dive into the temp directory after launching the EXE installer and grab the 2 files in the sun\jre_$version directory. There should be an MSI and cab file (i think) that you need to copy.
free780 Posted May 31, 2014 Posted May 31, 2014 Ditching the expiration disable is a bit stupid. The only way to centrally control it is to block the domain it contacts. Unless to add the command line parameters to the deployment.properties .
Arthur Posted June 1, 2014 Author Posted June 1, 2014 Ditching the expiration disable is a bit stupid. Oracle haven't ditched the expiration check completely. It's just ignored the first time Java is run. Still annoying though! The only way to centrally control it is to block the domain it contacts. Do you block the entire domain (javadl-esd-secure.oracle.com) or just the first URL below? https://javadl-esd-secure.oracle.com/update/baseline.version https://javadl-esd-secure.oracle.com/update/blacklist https://javadl-esd-secure.oracle.com/update/blacklisted.certs

free780 Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 @Arthur javadl-esd-secure.oracle.com The whole domain. We did it before oracle documented deployment.properties way of doing it.
