I have specific requirement to install JDK 1.6u45 x64 on Win7 x6x4 machine, but when i tried to install the setup just stuck at the status "Installing Java Web Start" the process dont proceed to finish, it stays there forever until i kill the msiexec task. I have been trying this for a week, i have uninstalled all the old(1.6u29 x64 & x86) and new(1.7u51 x64 & x86) JDK's, still same case.
I tried following as well:
1. Run as Admin
2. Removed UAC
3. tried to Install in different dir
4.Tried to install jdk 1.6 x64 - same problem
5.Successfully installed jdk1.8 x64
6. Tried to install only JKD dev tool - without src and pub jre - unsuccessful
Here is the Install log
Previously system had jdk 1.6u29 but i dont see any obvious reason for this. I used java uninstall tool to remove old jre just before i ran into this issue. And by the way i dont need web start as i ll be developing desktop apps.
Please some one let me know whats wrong.
