Cannot install JDK/JRE together using MSI package

RogerInHoustonApr 16 2014 — edited Apr 16 2014

Hello All,

I have been chasing performing Group Policy deployed Java Installation in the lastest 1.7.55 and 1.8.5 JDK's.

I can install JRE and JDK silently using the executable installer just fine, however when I use the extracted MSI I can only get the JDK to go on a silent install.

I have built an MST file specifying my preferred Java and JRE locations, as well as an ADDLOCAL of PublicjreFeature,ToolsFeature.

This link offers some insight into what's happening in the MSI

IT Pro Tips for Oracle Java SE Development Kit 6 | ITNinja

In InstallUISequence, sequence 831 is installpublicjre.

It seems this will not be triggered in an MSI non-ui install -- which is what is called by AD Group Policy.

Could this be moved or otherwise added so that the silent install can trigger it?

Thanks for your help!
