      FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
      java version "1.9.0-ea"
      Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.9.0-ea-b67)
      Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.9.0-ea-b67, mixed mode)

      ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
      Mac OSX 10.10.3

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      When installing the JDK the installation is missing the Info.plist file, because of this the JDK is not listed when running this command.

      /usr/libexec/java_home -V
      Matching Java Virtual Machines (4):
          1.8.0_45, x86_64: "Java SE 8" /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home
          1.7.0_80, x86_64: "Java SE 7" /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_80.jdk/Contents/Home
          1.6.0_65-b14-466.1, x86_64: "Java SE 6" /System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home
          1.6.0_65-b14-466.1, i386: "Java SE 6" /System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home

      The expectation is that JDK 9 would be listed there.

      REGRESSION. Last worked in version 8u45

      STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
      Install the JDK 9 on Mac OSX, run the command /usr/libexec/java_home -V and note it is not listed.

      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      Expected the JDK to be listed from that command.

      REPRODUCIBILITY :
      This bug can be reproduced always.

      CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
      One could manually copy the Info.plist file from a prior version and manually update.
