        We have issues with Java Update for Manual and Auto. I have tested on win_xp machine. I can also provide m/c details, if required.

        1.) Manual update
        When you try to do a manual update using java control panel, it will show an error dialog (Please see the attachment for more info)

        How to reproduce

        I.) Install Jre 6u10 b08 bundle (Full install).
        II.) Create the "UpdateServletURL" registry and point to the Map.xml location. (We have hosted locally).
        III.) Open JCP and click "Update Now" button.
        IV.) Update bubble will be shown in the System tray.
        - The update bubble information displayed are not same as it is in the version XML file
        V.) Clcik on Update bubble and Update Notification dialog will appear.
        VI.) Click on "Install" on Update Notification dialog
        VII.) Regstiry entries are not getting populated

        Expected Behaviour:
        Java update installer should be launched and new JRE (6u11) should be installed. Also, the update information should be read from the version XML file.

        2.) Auto update
        When you try to do auto update; nothing happens

        How to reproduce

        I.) Install Jre 6u10 b08 bundle (Full install).
        II.) Create the "UpdateServletURL" registry and point to the Map.xml location. (We have hosted locally).
        III.) Open JCP and set the schedule to daily.
        IV.) Modify the System time and date and match it with JCP schedule.
        V.) Log off from the machine and login back to the machine
        VI.) Make sure "jusched.exe" is running
        VI.) Wait for the Java update to happen at schedule
        VII.) Update bubble will be shown in the System tray.
        - The update bubble information displayed are not same as it is in the version XML file
        VIII.) Clcik on Update bubble and Update Notification dialog will appear.
        IX.) Click on "Install" on Update Notification dialog
        X.) Regstiry entries are not getting populated.

        Expected Behaviour:
        Java update installer should be launched and new JRE (6u11) should be installed. Also, the update information should be read from the version XML file.

        I guess reason of auto and manual Java update failure are same. For some reason update information are being read from the cache instead of actual (pointed) version XML file. New registry vlaues containg the update information are not getting created.
