Hello

What application are you trying to deploy?  If the vendor does not provide a way to deploy it silently with their installer (very rare), you might have to repackage the application into a custom installation package.

If you actually have to repackage it, there are many high quality commercial repackaging tools like InstallShield, Wise, and Advanced Installer.  The only free repackager I know of is the one from App Deploy:

I hope that helps!

Hi ,

As your question is mainly related to Oracle Java, you'd better ask Oracle Java support for help. They are the best resource to help you. Here is a reference article I found from Oracle Java website for you, hope it is helpful. You can refer to it to create a response file, please check it.
