Java 6 update 10 installation problem
843804Oct 29 2008 — edited Jan 29 2009I try to install the latest java software via group policy (assigned computer installation)but it seems to hang during the installation.
It keeps on displaying "installing managed software Java...."
When I take a look at the processes (using a different computer) I see two msiexec's and a msi4.tmp
When I end the msi4.tmp process the windows logon prompt appears.
I have enabled the windows Installer log but no log file appears in the temp folder.
When I just run the msi manually it installs fine.
I noticed that this update is a small msi file(1561KB) together with data1.cab, izma.dll and sp1033.MST.
I have included those files in the installation source folder and tried it with and without applying the sp1033.MST and my own transform file.
The previous java version only had an MSI files which was around 15MB. No other files. This installation goes fine via GPO.
Any idea what goes wrong? I tried it on a couple of test pc's.
