- Deploying Java 8 Update 60 as Oracle have made some changes to the MSI that means the instructions below no longer work. Extracting the MSI To extract the MSI, run the "jre-8u25-windows-i586.exe" or "jre-8u25-windows-x64.exe" EXE do not proceed with the installation. Open the folder "%LOCALAPPDATA%Low\Sun\Java", depending if you ran the i586 or x64 version you will see one of the following folders. jre1.8.0_25 jre1.8.0_25_x64 Open up the correct folder, and within the folder you will see the MSI file "jre1.8.0_25.msi". Copy this MSI to another location thencancel the installation. Silent Install Error Now that you have the MSI file you have probably tried to install it from thecommand line using "msiexec /qb /ijre1.8.0_25.msi". If you used a command prompt that isn't elevated youget the following error in the event viewer, even though you elevate the MSI installation. "Error 1722. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor." MSI Fixes The reason for the error above is that the MSI executes an installer that is embedded into the MSI, but when it runs this installer it doesn't run it with administrative privileges instead it runs it in the logged on userssecurity context. To fixthis youneed to modify the MSI DB with an MSI DB editor such as Orca (My personal preference is InstED http://www.instedit.com/). Open the MSI in your editor of choice andopen up the table "CustomAction" and select the row "installexe" and change the value of the field "Type" to decimal 3074 or hexadecimal 0x0C02. This will setthemsidbCustomActionTypeNoImpersonate bit so that it runs the embedded installer with administrative privileges. Once the change above has been made the installer will now fail with the following error. "Unable to install Java. Unable to open file C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\java.settings.cfg. Check that the configuration file exists and that the path to the file is correct." To fix this error an empty configuration file "java.settings.cfg" needs
