Java 8 installation issue (K2000)
Having issues with Java 8 installations. The tasks fails and the deployment halts. However Java 8 is still installed. And if I click "resume task execution" without waiting too long, the red cross becomes a green check symbol and the tasks continues without any problem (se screenie). If I linger too long at the failed task troubleshooting or having a cup of coffe, and then click resume, everything below fails.
The Java install task is pretty straight forward. An application task type simply executing "jre-8u66-windows-i586.exe /s". Start /wait doesn't seem to be supported here. I've also tried with execution a script.cmd that contains "start /wait jre-8u66-windows-i586.exe /s", but then /s is not regonized. All contained in a zip of course.
Below are some screenies I took.
Please help, I'm going nuts with this one. I've also looked for msi's of Java 8 but out of luck.
Rgrds,
Simon

to get the msi, on a workstation open a browser and go to java.com, download and install
you will then find the msi in the user that you used to install java with

Search IT Ninja for details on how to get that done.

I tried searching but got lots of old entries. What should I use for the search terms?
I have found search on itninja to be very frustrating. Maybe I need some tips - jfrasier 8 years ago-
You need a deployment.properties file on each endpoint to suppress that. See Oracle's documentation:
