FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]
A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Attempting to execute jre-7u7-windows-x64.exe with the silent flag, /s, prompts with the User Control Dialog. After the Continue/Okay is chosen, the install exits. Initially I was attempting to install JRE-7u6-windows-x64 with the silent flag using NSIS and through the command prompt with the same results, thus I think the UC Dialog can be ruled out. Executing the installer via the command prompt without the silent flag runs fine. Using the 32 bit version, jre-7u6-windows-i586.exe, with the silent flag works fine. I did not test the 32 bit version of 7u7.
REGRESSION. Last worked in version 7
STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Download the "offline" executable.
Go to the command prompt
Go to the directory that the file is located.
type in:
jre-7u7-windows-x64.exe /s
If UC prompts allow it to continue.
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Java to be installed in the default location.
ACTUAL -
Java was not installed.
ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR :
None that I located.
REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
After searching the forums and finding that other issues existed with other 64 bit installers, I downloaded jre-7u2-windows-x64.exe and ran it with the silent flag, /s. Answered the UC dialog, then java 7 update 2 was installed. Modded my installer to this version of the jre. Tested it with complete success.
