Has anyone tried copying all the files needed for an Client to a Windows machine, instead of installing it. Does it work, or does the Client still need access to information in the registry.

I know this is a strange request, but I have a need to be able to use something like rfhutilc on a machine that I only have access to through a web based client, and no privileges to install software, or modify the registry.

Cheers,

Use the java client and all you need is to have the mq jar files in your classpath....

But then you're restricted to using the Java/JMS interface from that machine.


No registry operations!

That part I know. I'm already using a couple of Java apps, but I want to use a couple of apps that are NOT Java. Hence, my question.

Cheers,

At a minimum, you would need to set the PATH to include the DLLs.

I don't know if it's feasible to copy the client binarys without running the install...

What happens when you try it?

Yeah, I realise I'd have to set up everything that the install automates for you. My (only) concern was if the Client code still needed something from the registry.

I'll let you know on Monday.

Not a good idea because of the settings in the registry. If you need to have many clients installed on number of servers, use silent install option perhaps deployed through SMS server.

That's fine. Except I'm trying to support, remotely, a client that isn't going to install MQ Client on all of their Terminal Server machines, just for me. I'm working in the real world, not a development environment, where "anything" goes.

Cheers,

Well... as an alternative, if you're looking for something like rfhutilc...

I think Mr. Capitalware's Visual Edit product or Visual Browse might help you - and it is pure java, and should work with just the pure java client.

And last I knew was free for 30 days.
