MSI Installation of JRE 8U25 failes

Hello!
I'm trying to deploy jre1.8.0_25.msi to our computers (Germany Windows 7 or Windows 8.1) with a GPO. But the installation fails with
There is a problem with this Windowsa Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.
The installation of jre1.8.0_05.msi runs fine.
I also tried msiexec /i jre1.8.0_25.msi - but this also brings this error.
Has anybody a solution or a hint?
Thanks
Axel

The error generates as part of our GPO to deploy the MSI.  When trying to run the MSI directly, the same error occurs.  I have users that visit a website that requires the latest version of Java and I can't afford the time to remote in to a hundred computers to update manually.  Lets go Oracle! We need a fix!

  • MSI installer closes with error 1327, Invalid drive on Win 7 Ultimate when My Documents is moved to a network drive

    I have several computers with Windows 7 Ultimate installed here at the Pioneer Library System. We have ~20 workstations running XP Pro on a Active Directory domain and are planning on rolling out Windows 7 this fall. I am running Windows 7 to test our programs
    (have since RC1) but I am running into an issue when installing software.
    The problem I am running into is that when I try to install any program that uses the MSI installer on Windows 7 , it fails with a 1327 error at the point where it is preparing to install and says "Invalid Drive H:\".
    All the users in our domain have the "Home Folder" on their active directory profile set to
    H:\ (which is mapped to \\PrimaryDC\user$ in the same place). We have also moved the
    C:\Users\user\Documents folder to H:\ so as to keep all documents on the server where they get backed up regularly.
    If I move "Documents" back to C:\Users\user\Documents the MSI installer works fine. When I look into the registry as suggested in
    this thread I found that in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders " and in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell
    Folders " the key "Personal" points to "H:\".
    But, H:\ is a valid connected network drive. Installing from the same account on an XP computer with
    C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents moved to the H:\ drive works fine.
    I have tried setting up another 7 machine and get exactly the same results on it.
    Is there a workaround for this besides creating a admin account that does not have Documents mapped to the network drive
    H:\ to use for installing programs?
    Thanks

    I do not have the option with some of these files to pass parameters to the MSI installer. For example, if I download the Acrobat Reader installer from http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.3/enu/AdbeRdr930_en_US.exe and run AdbeRdr930_en_US.exe
    it extracts the MSI file to C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Adobe\Reader 9.3\Setup Files and then runs it.
    To reproduce this an a Windows 7 computer (does not have to be on a domain):
    Prep Work:
    Create a user (test1)
    Create a folder on the root of C (C:\Test)
    Set permissions on C:\Test to allow the test1 user to have full access to it
    Share the C:\Test folder as test1 (again, set the permissions to allow the test1 user full access)
    Set the "Home Folder" for the test1 user connect to Z: and point that to \\127.0.0.1\test1
    Login as test1
    Check that you have Z:\ mapped and that it works
    Check that it works:
    Install Acrobat Reader 9.3 from the link above
    Note that it works
    Uninstall Acrobat Reader 9.3 using "Programs and Features"
    Break it:
    Login as test1
    Check that you have Z:\ mapped and that it works
    Go to C:\Users\test1
    Right  click on the Documents folder and click on properties
    Click on the Location tab
    Click on "Browse" and select the Z drive
    Allow Windows to move the files to the new location
    Check that it is broken:
    Check that you have access to the new Documents folder at Z:\
    Install Acrobat Reader 9.3 from the link above
    Note that it extracts itself to C:\Users\test1\AppData\Local\Adobe\Reader 9.3\Setup Files
    and runs the MSI installer from there
    Note that after the MSI installer is started it pops up an error saying Error: 1327, Invalid drive Z:\.
    I also see this with various other install programs (VMWare vSphere Client, VMWare Player and Kaspersky Antivirus for example)
    Is there any reason why this should not work? Is there something that I should be doing differently?
    Thanks

  • Issues with Shockwave 11.5.2.602 / 11.5.6.606 MSI installer

    <UPDATE 8/3/09> Nearly all of the issues mentioned below are still present in the MSI installer for 11.5.6.606 - the only one that Adobe have fixed is the one where the MozillaPlugins 'Version' value is left blank by the MSI by default - this is now created correctly, but all of the other issues remain.
    Personally I have given up trying to use this MSI package to deploy Shockwave until Adobe get their act together - instead I am using a wrapper to wrap the Shockwave executable inside an MSI file and deploying it that way, although this is not ideal.
    I have created an MST file which will fix the MSI installer for version 11.5.6.606, which I will post to another forum shortly, but I am not planning to keep it updated for future versions as I don't really have the time.
    Hi,
    I've tried submitting the following via the Adobe Customer Support portal and via the Feature Request/Bug Report form, but the first told me that I needed to 'get in touch with Adobe Enterprise Solutions team for getting help' and that 'to get in touch with them you have to purchase a contract', and the second resulted in a bounced email address saying that '[email protected]' 'does not exist at the organization this message was sent to'.
    In short, attempting to contact Adobe to report issues with their installers sucks, and I am posting this here in the vain hope that someone at Adobe might read this message and possibly forward it to the relevant people. Some of the issues have already been reported here on this forum, but some of them are new, and I guess others might be interested in them too.
    Hi,
    I would like to report some issues with most recent version of the Shockwave installer, available in MSI format from the following location:
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?k=4E6102EB-DA7C-2795-C744826EFDE2A098&l oc=en_us
    This is the installer for version 11.5.2.602, with a digital signature dated 06 November 2009 10:52:21
    When downloading this version of the installer in Windows Installer (MSI) format, the following issues manifest themselves, most of which are not a problem when using the Full EXE installer available from the same page.
    First of all, when installing the MSI file using Group Policy Software Deployment, if you log on to the computer after the MSI file has been deployed and view a web page that contains Shockwave content, you receive the following errors in the Windows event log:
    Event Type: Warning

    For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
    If you are logged on as an Administrator, then the computer will immediately attempt to 'repair' the Adobe Shockwave Player installation in order to create the missing folder 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\systemprofile\Application Data\Adobe\', which leads to a significant delay in the initialization of the Shockwave content on the web page. If you are logged on as a non-Administrator, the errors will still appear, but the 'repair' operation will fail due to insufficient permissions to create the above folder.
    I have done some testing and it seems as if this problem can be easily resolved by removing the code from the installer which tells it to create an empty folder in the 'Application Data' folder called 'Adobe\Shockwave Player 11'. This code seems to be entirely unnecessary, as no files are created inside this folder as part of the installation, and I have removed it successfully from my own copy of the MSI without it causing any issues. I have found some other people who are also experiencing this problem in the following forum post:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/2379350 (post number 8)
    and since this 'repair' operation causes all customised registry settings to be reset back to defaults as part of the repair, it would be very helpful if this 'feature' could be removed from future versions.
    Secondly, there are a number of registry keys which are created incorrectly by the MSI installer when the above 'repair' operation takes place, which need to be corrected to prevent further issues from occurring:
    Under '[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{1F3CB77D-D339-49e0-B8E4-FECD6D6F8CB8}\LocalServer32]', the 'default' value is set to the following by the MSI:
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\Adobe\SHOCKW~1\SWHELP~1.EXE"
    (Please note that there is a double quotation mark at the end of the value, but not at the beginning)
    Whereas the executable installer creates the value as follows:
    "C:\WINDOWS\system32\Adobe\Shockwave 11\SwHelper_1152602.exe"
    According to a forum post (http://forums.adobe.com/message/2379350, post 15), this causes DCOM errors when Shockwave is launched, if the MSI 'repair' has taken place as described above.
    The above registry value should be set to the following in the installer's Registry table:
    "[INSTALLDIR]Shockwave 11\SwHelper_1152602.exe"
    so that the MSI installer works the same as the executable one.
    Under '[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\TypeLib\{6EF568F4-D437-4466-AA63-A3645136D93E}\1.0\0\win32]', the 'default' value is set to the following by the MSI:
    Adobe\SHOCKW~1\SWHELP~1.EXE
    Whereas the executable installer creates the value as follows:
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\Adobe\Shockwave 11\SwHelper_1152602.exe
    Also, under '[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\TypeLib\{6EF568F4-D437-4466-AA63-A3645136D93E}\1.0\HELPDIR]', the 'default' value is set to the following by the MSI:
    Adobe\SHOCKW~1\
    Whereas the executable installer creates the value as follows:
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\Adobe\Shockwave 11\
    Once again, the above registry values should be set to the following in the installer's Registry table to fix the issue:
    [SystemFolder]Adobe\Shockwave 11\SwHelper_1152602.exe
    [SystemFolder]Adobe\Shockwave 11\
    Under '[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{166B1BCA-3F9C-11CF-8075-444553540000}]', the 'default' value is NOT SET by the MSI by default:
    Whereas the executable installer creates the value as follows:
    Shockwave ActiveX Control
    This value should be set in the installer's Registry table to fix the issue.
    Under '[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macromedia\Shockwave 10\location\common]', the 'default' value is set to the following by the MSI:
    Macromed\common\
    Whereas the executable installer creates the value as follows:
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\common\
    Also, under '[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macromedia\Shockwave 10\location\coreplayer]', the 'default' value is set to the following by the MSI:
    Macromed\Shockwave 10\
    Whereas the executable installer creates the value as follows:
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Shockwave 10\
    Also, under '[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macromedia\Shockwave 10\location\coreplayerxtras]', the 'default' value is set to the following by the MSI:
    Macromed\Shockwave 10\xtras\
    Whereas the executable installer creates the value as follows:
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Shockwave 10\xtras\
    The above registry values should be set to the following in the installer's Registry table to fix the issue:
    [SystemFolder]Macromed\common\
    [SystemFolder]Macromed\Shockwave 10\
    [SystemFolder]Macromed\Shockwave 10\xtras\
    The MSI installer does not create '[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.dcr]', '[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.dir]', or '[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.dxr]'
    Wherease the executable installer creates all three of these keys and populates them all with the following 'default' value:
    "Content Type"="application/x-director"
    These keys and values should be set in the installer's Registry table to fix the issue.
    The MSI installer creates a value under the following registry key:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\OptionalComponets\SwDi r]
    However this registry key is obviously misspelt (missing an 'n' in 'OptionalComponets') and should read as follows:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\OptionalComponents\SwD ir]
    This key name needs to be changed in the installer's Registry table to fix the issue (also pointed out in the following forum post: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2379350 (post number 10)).
    Under [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MozillaPlugins\@adobe.com/ShockwavePlayer], the 'Version' value is left blank by the MSI by default:
    Whereas the executable installer creates the value as follows:
    1152602
    This registry value should be set to the correct version in the installer's Registry table to fix the issue.
    Finally, the MSI installer creates a number of registry values under the following path:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MozillaPlugins\@adobe.com/ShockwavePlayer\Mime Types]
    These values are *in addition* to the values created under the following path:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MozillaPlugins\@adobe.com/ShockwavePlayer\MimeTypes]
    (Note there is no space between 'Mime' and 'Types' in the second key path)
    The executable installer *only* creates registry keys under the 'MimeTypes' key, and it seems as if this is the correct formatting for the key (also pointed out in the following forum post: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2379350 (post number 11)).
    The unnecessary 'Mime Types' registry keys and values should be removed from the installer's Registry table to avoid any potential issues.
    I am sorry that this is such a long list, but it seems as if a number of things have been changed in the transition from 11.5.1.601 to 11.5.2.602, and it would be very helpful if these changes could be put back to how they were before, so that the MSI and the executable installers function in the same way as much as possible.
    Message was edited by Borgquite - added 11.5.6.606 update

    Have posted an updated version of the MST to my webspace here:
    http://homepage.ntlworld.com/minkus/shockwave/shockwave115606mst2.zip
    This new version fixes the following issues (changes to this version in bold):
    MsiInstaller repair & errors on first run as non-admin (removes 'AppData' directory entries)
    DCOM errors once Shockwave is installed (adds double quotes to the beginnning of LocalServer32 value)
    Incorrect TypeLib paths in the registry (fixed to use built-in [SystemFolder] property)
    Default CLSID description value missing (set to 'Shockwave ActiveX Control', as per the executable installer)
    Incorrect Shockwave 10 paths in the registry (fixed to use built-in [SystemFolder] property)
    Misspelt 'OptionalComponets' registry key (renamed to 'OptionalComponents')
    Missing .dcr, .dir, .dxr Content Type registry values (included in the executable installer)
    Fixed incorrect AppID registry key (set to use installer's [VERSION] variable)
    Removed 'Launch SWDNLD.exe' shortcut created in Programs subfolder (people don't want this - see here)
    I have tested this on my network and it all seems to work fine. Unfortunately my original plan to use the executable installer didn't work out as it does not include the Shockwave 10 compatibility components described here and here, so it looks like I'll have to keep this MST file up to date with the latest versions until Adobe fix the problems themselves...
    If you want to see the changes that I have made, load up Adobe's 11.5.6.606 MSI file in Orca, then use Transform / Apply Transform to apply the MST, and look for the entries in green.
    Please post any feedback to this thread, and I will try to respond if I can help!

  • 10.1 MSI installer

    Hello,
    I'm having problems installing 10.1.53.64 using MSI package.
    A GPO installation exits with 1603 error and lunching the msi for manula installation searches for 10.0.42.34, and because I don't have that package it fails to install.
    The packake is updating 10.0.45.2 which installed with no problems.

    Lets make this clear.
    I'm distributing the package through AD GPO. The new package should update the old 10.0.45.2 package but the installation fails and in system log i have errors marked with 1603 number.. No additional data is available.
    When i try to manually lunch the msi (bu executing it) after it prompts for privileged access it asks me to locate a network resource for 10.0.42.34 package. I assume it wants to uninstall it - because if i try to cancel the request it tells me that the installation failed because it can not uninstall the previous version. I don't remember if i had such version installed on any computer, and i no longer have this package version.
    This entry is genereated in event log when manualy lunchind the msi installer
    Product: Adobe Flash Player 10 Plugin -- Error 1714.The older version of Adobe Flash Player 10 Plugin cannot be removed.  Contact your technical support group.  System Error 1612.
    I have found this information about the 1612 error
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/332/332773.html
    but there is no adobe flash listed in the programs of windows, and i even lunched the flush uninstaller but with no luck.
    At this point i think that the installer detects an older failed or corrupted installation and tries to remove it, but fails because it has no installer for that.
    As for the log i don't know where to look for those and searching the computer did not get any results.
    As for open browsers. The package lunched by the AD is run pre logon so there should be no browser open. And of caurse i do close my broswer when lunching the manual installation.

  • JRE 8u25 INSTALL_DIR not working

    I'm trying to install the JRE 8 (version 8u25) Offline installer jre-8u25-windows-i586.exe on 32-bit Windows 7, using the command line (and INSTALLCFG) options I found in the documentation chapter 17 titled "Windows JRE Installer Options". I have most of the options working, but not the INSTALL_DIR option, not on the command line nor in the INSTALLCFG file. In both cases, it tells me the format of that option is invalid, but not why. And it will not write a log file when I append the /L logfilepath option, either.
    Here's what I need to do: I need to force JRE 8u25 to install in %ProgramFiles%\Java\jre8, not in %ProgramFiles%\Java\jre_1.8.0_25, or anything else that is version specific.(This same problem was reported in the discussion here: Where is documentation on how JDK installs on Windows?.) It does not accept this INSTALL_DIR option with or without quotes, with or without a trailing backslash, whether the directory already exists or not, whether I specify the directory as %ProgramFiles%, C:\Program Files, or C:\Progra~1.
    So I really need to see some examples of the INSTALL_DIR option, when the target is a folder under %ProgramFiles%. Can anyone provide any working examples? If not, can anyone provide a different way to fix the installation directory?                              Sande

    By trial and error (my least favorite way of troubleshooting), I discovered that the documentation is wrong:
    The correct command line option for the installation directory is not INSTALL_DIR but is INSTALLDIR.
    Now I wonder what the correct use of the option NOSTARTMENU is, because setting it to 1 or 0 still creates the unwanted Start menu shortcuts.

  • Launch after JRE autoinstall failed on HTTPS

    Hi, Andy et al:
    With your help I have successfully set up a autoinstall servlet on my own server, so when client doesn't have JRE 1.5 installed, it will go to our server to install it. Then it will launch the application.
    All work fine on http mode, but when I switch my web application to support HTTPS, which means all web transaction including JNLP will go through HTTPS.
    after a successful installation of JRE 1.5, the application failed to start without any error prompt, the web start log only print out three lines:
    Java Web Start 1.4.2_08 Console, started Mon May 02 17:57:58 PDT 2005

    Logging to file: C:\Documents and Settings\yipking\Desktop\java.log
    This problem is hard to debug since it didn't leave any useful log message.
    Could you please help me on this?

  • MSI installer not working MSI 5.0 Windows 7

    Hello I am trying to get MSI installer to work and when I go to install anything that has the Windows Installer Package it opens Notepad in a scrambled message. I have tried numerous avenues to no avail (regedit,copy paste regedit, troubleshooters, sfc/scannow,
    command prompt etc.) I tried to choose the file association of MSIexec in System32 and it just opens this 
    I have tried what is suggested in this forum
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/f699e632-54ba-443b-85df-269a7fd6cf1a/windows-installer-not-working?forum=w7itprogeneral and regedit says:
    I have tried this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2438651#reso1 and didn't work
    I have tried changing C :\Windows\System32\msiexec.exe /V in regedit and that didn't work
    I have searched event viewer and all that's in there is a warning and information of successful installs and uninstalls.
    I have tried %windir%\system32\msi.dll version in Command prompt and it says that the system cannot execute the specified program
    I am thinking it is just a matter of finding the correct file association that the windows installer can use to install that program but I am unable to find that! 
    I did a system restore but the only good restore was from earlier today and it still just opens notepad. before I did the restore I went into services and the computer couldn't find the file (windows installer) so I did a restore and now it at least sees
    the file and I can start the service.
    Can I please get some help fixing this? would uninstalling MSI and re-installing it work? I have been searching forum after forum and nothing has yet worked.
    I did a clean install of windows a couple of weeks ago
    Microsoft answers gives me thee worst answers a person could come up with.

    Hi ingenuities, 
    Try importing these reg file under Safe mode.
    If you really need this work, I am supposing the only way is to try importing them manually, if any value key is using by process, use process monitor to filter out these processes and shut them down.I monitored values under MSI.package seems like no
    value was using by system.
    I exported msi.package and patch to text, it is from a clean Windows 7 intallation。

  • Installation of Moonlight plugin fail on Firefox 6.0.2 because it is not compatible. When it will be compatible?

    I tried to install Moonlight plugin version 3.9.9 (4 preview) on the latest version of Firefox. Error message is: "Novell Moonlight could not be installed because it is not compatible with with Firefox 6.0.2".
    There isn't any versions of Moonlight that can be installed on Firefox 6.0.2.
    Moonlight plugin worked very well with previous versions of Firefex.
    Is it correct?
    When Firefox 6.0.2 will become compatible with Moonlight plugin (or vice-versa)?

    Installation of Moonlight plugin fail on Firefox 7.0.1 because it is not compatible.
    Found this, worked for me
    I found an other way: download the compatibility Reporter addon. this addon makes firefox to ignore the compatibility of the addon: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/?src=api

    the device has encountered an unexpected error. Installation error: application verification failed
    I have been receiving this message over and over again when trying to publish my iOS app for the app store (I use Flash cc AIR 3.9.1.1080 for iOS and my settings are: "device testing in interpreter mode", as my app uses several swfs).
    I have done everything from scratch, as recommended on other sections of the forums: new app ID from my apple developer account, new Distribution Certificates, new Distribution Provisioning Profiles and nothing works.
    I can install my app on my iPad if I use the development Certificate and Provisioning Profile and everything seems OK. But as soon as I use the Distribution Certificate and Provisioning Profile get the same message:
    the device has encountered an unexpected error. Installation error: application verification failed
    I have done everything from the beggining over and over and nothing works. Am I the only one having this issue on Flash cc???

    Hi Daniel:
    I´m far from being an expert on Xcode (or any code) but this is what I did and it worked:
    - On Xcode go to Preferences > Accounts > select your App Developer Account, then click "view details" on the lower right corner.
    - There you can see which of your "Signing Identities" (Certificates) are "Valid". You should have at least one for Development and one for Distribution.
    - Below that window there are two icons which you can use to add, export or revoke a "Signing Identitie" (Certificate).
    - Choose the one you want to use (Develop. or Distrib.), export it to the folder of the app you are working on and name it in such a way you can relate it to your app. Before knowing this I was exporting them using Keychain Access and I wasn´t naming them to differentiate each one properly.
    - On your Apple Developer account create the Provisioning Profile for your app. I deleted any App IDs or Prov. Profs. which were useless.
    - Then on my Apple Developer account I generated a Development Prov. Prof. to install and test my app on my iPad. All went fine.
    - Then an Ad Hoc Prov. Prof. again to install and test my app on my iPad. All went fine.
    - Then I generated the App Store Prov. Prof. and I was able to install the app on my device without the upsetting error.
    - Then I uploaded the app to iTunes Connect with no problem.
    These link was useful for me: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/technotes/tn2318/_index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/D TS40013777-CH1-TNTAG0
    You can also search for "Certificates" and "Provisioning" on Xcode help.
    Good luck!

  • Automatic installation of JRE to run applet

    I would like to check if the user(of my website, where I have an applet) have JRE 1.4.1 on the machine. If not I would like to "force" the user (ask him) to start the automatic installation of JRE.
    I would like to do this from a JSP page.
    Anyone who can help? - need some kind of link to the coorect download site for both IE and Netscape. And also some more information

    Why don't you deploy your applet using Java Plugin? It
    automatically begins the installation if the JRE is
    not available. And all you have to do is specify the
    right OBJECT tag on the HTML page.That is what I would like to do (but would prefere to do it from a JSP).
    Anyway, which link should I use in the OBJECT and EMBED tag to get the client to automatically start downloading the JRE autoinstaller??
