[wpkg-users] My java-7 package keeps reinstalling itself

[Frederic Bergeron]

Hi, 

I have upgraded my java-7 package definition in WPKG to version 72.  I was previously using version 51.

When I restart a computer, it detects that a newer version is available and installs it successfully.  However, when I restart the machine, it keeps reinstalling the latest version (72).  How can I prevent that from happening?

I'm wondering if it's because I have removed the package definition for version 51.  Do I have to keep all versions of the package definitions in my XML file?  Or is it only the latest version that matters?  

Here is my package definition:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<packages>
    <package
        id="java-7"
        name="Java Runtime Environment 7"
        revision="%version%"
        reboot="false"
        priority="100">

        <variable name="version" value="72" />

        <check
            type="uninstall"
            condition="exists"
            path="Java 7 Update %version%" />

        <install cmd='taskkill /f /im jqs.exe /im iexplore.exe /im firefox.exe'>
            <exit code='0' />
            <exit code='1' />
            <exit code='128' />
        </install>

        <install cmd='%SOFTWARE%\java-7\jre\jre-7u%version%-windows-i586.exe /s REBOOT=Suppress' />

        </install>

        <install cmd='%COMSPEC% /C if exist "%PROGRAMFILES(x86)%\Java\jre7\bin\jqs.exe" "%PROGRAMFILES(x86)%\Java\jre7\bin\jqs.exe" -unregister'>

        </install>

        <upgrade cmd='taskkill /f /im jqs.exe /im iexplore.exe /im firefox.exe' >
            <exit code='0' />
