Managed Install for Java 8 update 66
I am trying to create a managed install through Kace 1000 of Java 8 update 66 to 700+ windows 7 PCs and I haven't had any luck so far. I have it set to display a message before the MI runs when it begins and on completion and I get all 3 messages but that is about all that happens. I once got a dialog box saying the program was downloading and installing for a few seconds then it disappeared Kace said java was installed but it was not and as soon as the machine inventoried again java was not there and the MI said it was not installed. Here are some of the things I have tried.
zipped up the msi and a batch file that had the following in it.
wmic product where "name like 'Java 7%%' or name like 'Java 8%%'" call uninstall
start /wait msiexec /i "%~ jre1.8.0_66full.msi " JU=0 JAVAUPDATE=0 AUTOUPDATECHECK=0 RebootYesNo=No WEB_JAVA=1 /q
Tried just uploading the msi and putting this in parms
msiexec /i "%~ jre1.8.0_66full.msi " JU=0 JAVAUPDATE=0 AUTOUPDATECHECK=0 RebootYesNo=No WEB_JAVA=1 /q
On both tried it with and without Don't Prepend msiexec.exe checked
Uploaded the offline exe and a bat with this
wmic product where "name like 'Java 7%%' or name like 'Java 8%%'" call uninstall
start /wait jre-8u66-windows-x64.exe INSTALL_SILENT=1 STATIC=0 AUTO_UPDATE=0 WEB_JAVA=1 WEB_JAVA_SECURITY_LEVEL=H WEB_ANALYTICS=0 EULA=0 REBOOT=0 NOSTARTMENU=0 SPONSORS=0WEB_JAVA=1
Tried it with just the EXE with these parms
INSTALL_SILENT=1 STATIC=0 AUTO_UPDATE=0 WEB_JAVA=1 WEB_JAVA_SECURITY_LEVEL=H WEB_ANALYTICS=0 EULA=0 REBOOT=0 NOSTARTMENU=0 SPONSORS=0WEB_JAVA=1
Again with and without don't prepend msiexec.exe checked
I have tried /s no parms every combination of every suggestion I could find and nothing has worked.

You have to first extract the MSI from the offline installer. http://www.klaus-hartnegg.de/gpo/msi_java8.html - waynejessee 8 years ago
