Hi guys, @ryan.s @davidacland @Echevarria

Seems you're right, Oracle played with its own installer app.

The current script is erroring ever since Oracle released a 3 digit version number.

The $onlineversionmin variable is returning 10 instead of 101. $onlineversion2 also returning 1.8.0_10 instead of 1.8.0_101

While using variables like the below work for two digit version numbers, they break when Oracle released version 101. onlineversion2=${onlineversion1:50:9} onlineversionmain=${onlineversion2:2:1}

I'm making some modifications on the script to allow support for both two and three digit version numbers.
I changed it so that if Java isn't installed, it exits. (we didn't want users in our environment to get java installed if they didn't have it).

Also added functionality to remove the /tmp/au-1.8.0_20.xml once the script ran regardless if it installs or not. Previously it removed if the software needed to be updated.

No chance you've got something similar for the Java JDK? ;-)

@peterloobuyck

Hey buddy i wanted to see if any of the Java update scripts listed were able to address the issue with the policy completing successfully but the version is still the same. I ran this script and the following results took place but the update didn't happen:

Executing Policy Java Installation update
Running script New Java Update Script...
Script exit code: 0
Script result: Current version is Java 8 Update 73 build 02

@bjones If you look at my post above, the issue is that the script isn't finding the new version number 101. As you can see in your log, it thinks the version number is Main 8, Minor 10, which is why the script is exiting.

See below in bold for what it should return.

Script result: Current version is Java 8 Update 71 build 15
Installed main version is 8
Installed minor version is 71

Try running my modified script above, it handles both 2 and 3 digit version numbers.

@peterloobuyck Have you modified your script for the new 3 digit version numbers?

Made minor modification to lines 11, 13, and 18 to grab the word rather than a specific number of characters. Should keep this from needing a change (or breaking) when version numbers increase or decrease in digits.

@peterloobuyck : Hi Peter. The target machine is running 10.12.2. I note that Oracle released a Java update in the last day or two, but I don't know if that's relevant.

@stevenjklein hi steven, i tested it on a similar machine. It should work even after the update. You're not behind a proxy are you?

@peterloobuyck : Okay, I decided to save it as a shell script, make it executable, and run it on the target machine.

It refused to run.

I checked, and discovered it had Mac line breaks (CR instead of LF). (I know, rookie mistake!)

I used this nifty bit of PERL to fix it:

1perl -pi -e 's/
2/
3/g' install_Java.sh

And now it works.

Thanks for your help!

@stevenjklein Hi Steven, glad it's all working now!

Page 1 / 2

Hi all!

inspired by the great @rtrouton , I adjusted his superb script on installing Java.

I added a check to see if java has been installed or if a newer version is available, a bit like my Flash Update script, for which I borrowed heavily on other guys work.

Hope you guys can use this, and if you have any suggestions, please let me know!

1#!/bin/bash -e
2
3# This script downloads and installs the latest Oracle Java 8 for compatible Macs
4
5# Determine OS version
6osvers=$(sw_vers -productVersion | awk -F. '{print $2}')
7
8# Specify the "OracleUpdateXML" variable by adding the "SUFeedURL" value included in the
9# /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Info.plist file. 
10#
11# Note: The "OracleUpdateXML" variable is currently specified in the script as that for 
12# Java 8 Update 20, but the XML address embedded with Java 8 Update 20 is not special in 
13# this regard. I have verified that using the address for Java 8 Update 5 will also work 
14# to pull the address of the latest Oracle Java 8 installer disk image. To get the "SUFeedURL"
15# value embedded with your currently installed version of Java 8 on Mac OS X, please run
16# the following command in Terminal:
17#
18# defaults read "/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Info" SUFeedURL
19#
20# As of Java 8 Update 20, that produces the following return:

Thanks Peter !!! :) not re-inventing the wheel is always great!!!!

Hi Peter,
Am trying this - sometimes it shows it runs all the way through but nothing is updated and other times I get an error (see below) any ideas?

Hi guys, @ryan.s @davidacland @Echevarria

Seems you're right, Oracle played with its own installer app.

Can you test the script underneath? I made some changes and tests in my testlab seems to be ok...

Thanks, works ok for me.

The current script is erroring ever since Oracle released a 3 digit version number.

The $onlineversionmin variable is returning 10 instead of 101. $onlineversion2 also returning 1.8.0_10 instead of 1.8.0_101

While using variables like the below work for two digit version numbers, they break when Oracle released version 101. onlineversion2=${onlineversion1:50:9} onlineversionmain=${onlineversion2:2:1}

Also added functionality to remove the /tmp/au-1.8.0_20.xml once the script ran regardless if it installs or not. Previously it removed if the software needed to be updated.

No chance you've got something similar for the Java JDK? ;-)

Try running my modified script above, it handles both 2 and 3 digit version numbers.

@peterloobuyck Have you modified your script for the new 3 digit version numbers?

Did some cleaning up. You should be able to use this one... Oracle did some changes on their website...

Yep, that did it. Thanks @peterloobuyck !

Hmm, I tried the script posted on 11/8/16, and got this:

Any suggestions?

@stevenjklein Hi Steven, just ran another test and all runs smooth..

What version of MacOS did you run it on?
And just to be sure, I attach the latest version once more.

@peterloobuyck : Hi Peter. The target machine is running 10.12.2. I note that Oracle released a Java update in the last day or two, but I don't know if that's relevant.

@stevenjklein hi steven, i tested it on a similar machine. It should work even after the update. You're not behind a proxy are you?

@peterloobuyck : Okay, I decided to save it as a shell script, make it executable, and run it on the target machine.

It refused to run.

I checked, and discovered it had Mac line breaks (CR instead of LF). (I know, rookie mistake!)

I used this nifty bit of PERL to fix it:

1perl -pi -e 's/
2/
3/g' install_Java.sh

And now it works.

Thanks for your help!

@stevenjklein Hi Steven, glad it's all working now!
