Error 3: Installing Java Runtime Environment 8u65 or 8u66

In case you are wondering, normally I would open the EXE’s and extract the MSI’s.

But today I decided to use the EXE’s with the default commands that Oracle delivers us.

Had some problems with SCCM depencies and with little time, I used a batch file.

When using SCCM and installing it with SYSTEM credentials, the java installer decided to place the msi’s under the appdata from the install account.

Because appdata from the System account is under C:\Windows\System32, it would not do the correct copy actions.

Also it was searching for java.settings.cfg under C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java , so we needed to place the file there before installing.

I also added some custom settings to the Java configuration.

Placing the file under APPDATA of the current user.

Detection Method:

Exist

C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\Settings_Java8u66_Installed.txt

    What’s the deployment.properties for & how come it isn’t automatically copied on the batch file?
