For security reasons you are encouraged to upgrade to the latest release. Bug Fixes of the Update Release Notes under each release: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/webnotes/ReleaseNotes.html. However, if you're running JRE 6 Update 10 or onwards and haven't disabled automatic updates then JRE should automatically be downloading and installing updates.

Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 18
Sun has skipped 3 update versions and has released Update 10 as the versions replacing Update 7. Update 10 introduced some substantial changes, also in relation to the installation/uninstallation process we manage with WPKG: specifically it introduced a new binary "jqs.exe" and a service called "Java Quick Starter" starting it automatically at boot time.
"Java Quick Starter" is described as a prefetching service that should make java applications start faster. But it has a drawback: it must be killed before uninstallation or installation fails, and uninstallation via msiexec does not seem to be smart enough to do this.
Update
This is not a problem though, simply insert the following snippet into the very first of your install AND upgrade commands of the xml from the next paragraph.
<install cmd='net STOP JavaQuickStarterService' > <exit code='2' /> </install>
This will stop the java quick-start service prior to installation or upgrade. In case it was already stopped (Errorlevel 2) the error is simply ignored. Remove the commands (%PROGRAMFILES%\Java\jre6\bin\jqs.exe -unregister') that disable the 'Java Quick Starter' from your xml to take advantage of it.
Although there seems to be no command line switches to allow/disallow the installation of "Java Quick Starter", the jqs.exe binary itself can be used immediately after installation in order to add/remove the "Java Quick Starter" service.
The following table shows the command line switches you can invoke with the jqs.exe binary:
C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin>jqs -help Usage: jqs <mode> [<options>] The following modes are supported: -help print this help message and exit -register install JQS service and register browser startup detectors -unregister uninstall JQS service and unregister startup detectors -enable enable JQS service -disable disable JQS service -pause pause prefetching -resume resume prefetching -version print version of the associated Java Runtime Options include: -config <config> set JQS configuration file -profile <profile> set JQS profile file -logfile <logfile> set JQS log file -verbose <level> verbose operation
This requires the Windows Offline installation package available from Sun. Note that a particular Java family install package does not remove already installed versions of another Java family, so JRE 1.5 and JRE 1.6 can coexist; all older 1.6 update versions (1.6.0 up to 1.6.0 Update 11) are tried to be removed by the following packaging (note that the update version seems to be no more reflected in the last number in the Uninstall ID).
Actually, with Update 10 and later Sun has introduced as default the so called "patch in place" update mechanism (see: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/jweb/otherFeatures/jre_install.html) which automatically removes the previous version of the same Java family (unless you turned off patch-in-place using the installer). So the line that tries to remove a previously installed Update 10 (msiexec /qn /x {26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F83216010FF}) is not strictly necessary (if you installed a 'Family JRE' and not a 'Static JRE').
JRE without Java Quick Starter on 32-bit hosts
The following installs JRE Update 18 and then removes the "Java Quick Starter" service; if you want to keep "Java Quick Starter" service then just remove the line with "jqs.exe -unregister", but remeber to stop/kill JQS before uninstallation.

Install JRE with msi without removing old version in a mixed 32-bit/64-bit environment
On 64-bit hosts installing the exe doesn't work. jre-6u17-windows-i586-s.exe is a 32bit app containing a msi, a cab and some other files. On a 32-bit host it unpacks in in c:\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\jre1.6.0_17\. On a 64-bit host it unpacks in c:\Windows\SysWOW64\config\systemprofile\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\jre1.6.0_17\. The silent install on a 64-bit host is still looking for the msi in the *System32* directory.
So the best thing to do is to install the msi package. Copy the content of \Windows\SysWOW64\config\systemprofile\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\jre1.6.0_17 on your server and install from it.
You should install both 32-bit and 64-bit java on 64-bit machines if you want a 32-bit browser being able to use java.
In this example, no uninstall of the old java versions as it is quite time consuming.

Installer Command-line Switches
These have changed from JRE 6 Update 10 and onwards. http://java.sun.com/javase/6/webnotes/install/jre/silent.html gives the following list but it may or may not be complete:
- /lang=<language ID>, if used, sets the localized language for the installer (see language IDs)
- /s, if used, specifies a silent installation
- INSTALLDIR, if used, specifies the drive and path of the installation
- If INSTALLDIR is not specified, the installation will go into C:\Program Files\java\jre6 (default location).
- REBOOT=Suppress, if used, indicates that if locked files are encountered the computer should not be rebooted. Most JRE installations will not ask for a reboot.
- STATIC=1, if used, specifies a static installation. The default is for a Family installation.
- SYSTRAY=0, if used, if set to zero, Java won't show an systray icon when loaded.
Previous versions had these switches available which may or may not be appropriate for JRE 6 Update 10 and onwards:
- IEXPLORER=1
- MOZILLA=1
- ADDLOCAL=ALL
- JAVAUPDATE=0
- JU=0
- AUTOUPDATECHECK=0
From the 'Java SE 6 Update 10 Release Notes': "Windows Regression when Using MSI Install Options
On Windows XP Pro SP3 (32bits), when installing JRE 6u10 or later and using MSI install options /qb or /passive, installation fails with Error 1606.Could not access network location 0.. The workaround is to not use the /qb or /passive options. Options that work correctly are /q, /qn (no UI), /qr (reduced UI), and /quiet (quiet mode, no user interaction). See 6764967 for details."
Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 7
This requires the Windows Offline installation package available from Sun. Note that the Java install package does not replace old versions, so JRE 1.5 and JRE 1.6 can coexist; all older 1.6 update versions (1.6.0 up to 1.6.0 Update 6) are tried to be removed (note that the update version is reflected in the last number in the Uninstall ID). Notice how the path string in the uninstall check has changed from previous version.
For the JDK, just change "jre" to "jdk" in the setup program's name and change "A77B" to "A78A" in the Uninstall ID.
For the JDK, we had to replace {3248F0A8-6813-11D6-A77B- with {32A3A4F4-B792-11D6-A78A-. This works and tested with Java6u7

J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 5
First download the EXE package from java.sun.com, install it, and find an MSI package on your drive. Then use this MSI to distribute Java to other machines.
Note: When you use the *.exe file directly with command line switches as proposed by sun the installer waits forever for someone accepting the licence agreement.
Note that "install cmd" should be in one line; it was wrapped because it was too long to fit here!

Java 6 (JRE/SDK), generic solution
This is my personal solution. Works properly for me starting from Java 6 Update 11. It works on Windows XP and Vista. 64-bit OS is supported as well as 32-bit OS. It also seems that Sun is not going to install each Java update into an independent directory. This will hopefully eliminate the need to uninstall previous versions manually.
Download
First of all download the offline installers. Do not download the new Online installers. It might work as well but I did not try it. After download you should have the following files (or a subset of it):
- jdk-6u11-windows-i586-p.exe
- jdk-6u11-windows-x64.exe
- jre-6u11-windows-i586-p.exe
- jre-6u11-windows-x64.exe
If you just deploy JRE, then you do not need to download the JDK packages. Similarly you do not need the x64 packages if you deploy to 32-bit OS only.
Prepare installation
Unfortunately the .exe installers do not always work silently when the "/v/qn..." switch is used. On 64-bit OS it might yield a "package not found" error in silent installation. That's why I recommend to pre-extract the packages.
- Run the installer as usual (e.g. double-click "jdk-6u10-windows-i586-p.exe"
- Get the extracted installer from "%AppData%\Sun\Java\" ("%LocalAppData%\..\LocalLow\Sun\Java" in Vista) and copy them to the package deployment folder. Do this for all packages you like to deploy. Here's a sample how my directory structure looks after extracting and copying:
- JavaSE/install.cmd
- JavaSE/jdk1.6.0_11_32/jdk-6u11-windows-i586-p.exe
- JavaSE/jdk1.6.0_11_32/jdk1.6.0_11.msi
- JavaSE/jdk1.6.0_11_32/sb160110.cab
- JavaSE/jdk1.6.0_11_32/sd160110.cab
- JavaSE/jdk1.6.0_11_32/sj160110.cab
- JavaSE/jdk1.6.0_11_32/sp160110.cab
- JavaSE/jdk1.6.0_11_32/sr160110.cab
- JavaSE/jdk1.6.0_11_32/ss160110.cab
- JavaSE/jdk1.6.0_11_32/st160110.cab
- JavaSE/jdk1.6.0_11_32/sz160110.cab
- JavaSE/jdk1.6.0_11_x64/jdk-6u11-windows-x64.exe
- JavaSE/jdk1.6.0_11_x64/jdk-6u11-windows-x64.msi
- Note: This installer seems to be different from all the others. It uses a different package format and extracts to "%TEMP%\<UID>". So you have to grab the MSI file from there.
- JavaSE/jre1.6.0_11_32/Data1.cab
- JavaSE/jre1.6.0_11_32/jre-6u11-windows-i586-p.exe
- JavaSE/jre1.6.0_11_32/jre1.6.0_11.msi
- JavaSE/jre1.6.0_11_x64/Data1.cab
- JavaSE/jre1.6.0_11_x64/jre-6u11-windows-x64.exe
- JavaSE/jre1.6.0_11_x64/jre.msi
- Note: I had to rename the msi file from "jre1.6.0_10.msi" to "jre.msi" in order to install properly. Without this fix it failed with a message that it could not locate "jre.msi". Seems to be a bug within the msi package.
- JavaSE/unattended-jdk-uninstall.cmd
- JavaSE/unattended-jdk.cmd
- JavaSE/unattended-jre-uninstall.cmd
- JavaSE/unattended-jre.cmd
Please NOTE: There are some *.cmd scripts listed which I use as install scripts. The scripts are listed within the following chapters.
Package definition
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

As you can see the package just runs the unattended* cmd script which will make sure the right packages for the currently running operating system is executed.
NOTE: This package definition is for JRE installation. If you would like to deploy JDK, then just refer to unattended-jdk* scripts insted.
The scripts
As listed above there are some scripts required. And here they come...
NOTE: The unattended* scripts are basically identical for all versions - they just need to list the correct MSI file within the header (PKG32 and PKG64 variables).
unattended-jre.cmd / unattended-jre-uninstall.cmd (both files are identical, you might also link them on Unix/Linux level).

As you can see the script is mainly used to determine the correct installer for 32- or 64-bit operating system.
NOTE: I am installing 32-bit version on 64-bit OS as well. This assures that 32-bit browsers can run the Java plug-in too.
Due to the fact that lots of installers are using always the same silent switches I prepared a generic "install.cmd" script. So I can just pass the installer filename and the type of installer as parameters and I do not have to care about the switches each time. So here it comes:

That's it. This framework is quite easy to re-use for upgrades. The only thing you have to do is to download the Java Offline installers for the edition you like to deploy, then extract it, put the files to a sub-folder of the scripts (see directory structure outlined above) and then change the PKG32 and PKG64 paths on top of the scripts accordingly.
Java Uninstall Method
If you are just starting out with WPKG and want to be able to uninstall all versions of Java prior to your first package, you can use JavaRa (http://raproducts.org/javara.html) to silently uninstall all prior versions of the JRE.
There's also a scripting solution. It can also be used for other programs like Adobe Reader.

Here's a JScript variant using the MSI ActiveX object. Execute it with cscript. Any JRE from 1.4.2 up to including 1.6u7 will be removed:
var msi = new ActiveXObject("WindowsInstaller.Installer");
msi.UILevel = 2; // INSTALLUILEVEL_NONE
var products = msi.Products;
for (var i = 0; i < products.Count; ++i)
if (products.Item(i).match(/^\{(?:7148F0A8-6813-11D6-A77B-00B0D0142|3248F0A8-6813-11D6-A77B-00B0D01[56])/))
msi.ConfigureProduct(products.Item(i), 0, 2 /* INSTALLSTATE_ABSENT */);
