I haven't seen anyone else ask about this. ;  I just tried to do my timesheet using Kronos and, again, the system wants me to install a Java component/upgrade (JRE 1.5.0).   This is not the first time this has happened.  Everytime it does, we have to upgrade everyone's workstation which is a lot of work for our tech staff.  How do other departments deal with this? ; I can't believe everyone on campus is having to do the same thing!

Hi Susan,

 

Here is one way to deal with it on a departmental scale:

 

 

The JRE 5.0 Update 12 version can be downloaded from Sun for distribution using an .MSI file from:

 

http://java.sun.com/products/archive/j2se/5.0_12/index.html

 

 

Instructions for how to extract the msi file from the “Offline Installer” version are here:

 

 

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/deployment/deployment-guide/upgrade-guide/deployment.html

 

 

 

We use this msi in a software installation group policy to push it to machines that need it.  The second link also gives instructions for creating an .mst transform file with Orca which we have not gotten around to yet, we just use the .msi file.

Hello Micronetters,
 
How many of you out there are using KRONOS in some capacity? Physical Plant is embarking on the KRONOS road, and I'd be curioius to know if there's a community of interest out there.
 
Thanks,
 
Bond
