Absolutely. I forgot to say that we had it installed on our 2003 WSUS server, I apologize for not putting that in the response. I appreciate your assistance.

I appreciate the assistance that you and David gave. It seems the task history was messing up the licensing. Thanks for all the help!

I had to replace the java.exe to java.msi before the script ran. Thanks

I appreciate the assistance. I will go ahead and try that out. Thanks for the reply.

Is there any more information needed or explanation needed for what I am trying to do? I messed with it some more this morning and didn't get it anywhere unfortunately. The ending half of the package boot editors works with the installing of java update but the beginning part before applying package does not still.

My apologies this is the xml code I was able to pull from it. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <packageboot version="2.0.0.0" id="dd53b76e-babc-410f-8901-426d0989f5f1"> <instructions> <preexecution> <programs> <program failureaction="stop" enabled="true" name="cmd.exe" type="exe" typeaction="runandwait"…

It was a custom report I ran I will try to add it into this reply. SELECT DISTINCT dbo.device.domainworkgroup AS [Domain or Workgroup], dbo.device.netbiosname AS [Computer Name], dbo.dt_wmi_Win32_InstalledProduct.DisplayName AS [Display Name] FROM dbo.dt_wmi_Win32_InstalledProduct RIGHT OUTER JOIN dbo.device ON…

We got it working but improvised the evaluation a bit. We uninstalled it from the 2003 server and got it working on a Windows 7 64 bit pc, which is now a temporary test server to use for evaluation, since the 2003 server had issues. So far it seems like it is working and did have a few issues which were able to be fixed by…

FYI I got it to work. I had to replace java.exe and get the java.msi before it worked correctly.

Thanks for that Information. It helped greatly.

When you say dummy executable, did you put something other as the exe instead and also attach the exe you wanted to have the bat file from to the same package?

I appreciate the help. I ran the script and it works for the pcs. I am also using PS EXEC as frgpugs suggested to above. Thanks to both of you for the assistance.

I thank you for your response. I grabbed psexec and will be using that to push out folders with files. 

I am using SQL Express on the same server as of now. I guess I should have clarified and asked if there any best practices for migrating Patch Manager to another server. Thanks for all the help so far everyone

After tinkering with it I can only get 1 pc out of the 100 pcs on our network to work when each report is run. The first one pulls up a correct x86 pc name but only one record and the 2nd one I did showed a x64 bit pc but only one record. Is there something else I need to setup in order for it to pull from all pcs on the…

I appreciate the help. Thank you very much.

I appreciate the help

I deleted all my tasks in the task history and exited along with restarting the service and it went back under the license limit. If I understand this right the task history can double up on licenses or cause issues if not kept up?

I submitted a support ticket but they told me what I did already which was to check managed computers. Under managed computers it says Computers (91) Computers shown (91). I also removed old pcs that no longer were on the network and servers that didn't need them and left only the WSUS server and Patch Manager server. Also…

Found it with help of support from Solarwinds. For anyone looking to sort by OS 32 or 64 bit it is located under reporting>wsus reports>windows server update services>and under available data sources choose computer. Then in the right columb look for os architecture.

Update I added reboot before install and it said it installed successfully and downloaded successfully only to see the old version still labeled as installed in the programs and features and no where in there is the new java 8 Update 45? Any ideas?

Update I started the package from scratch and got the batch file to run successfully and remove all versions of Java but now it hangs on Installing Java giving error message of Install Object: java 8 u 45 test Status: Failed Details: Install may have failed. Unable to create install session. The caller attempted to perform…
