How to obtain the JAVA MSI installed

1. Visit The offline download page for Java
2. Run the .exe you just downloaded
3. Once it’s downloaded you’ll be asked if you want to install
4. At this point, check in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\
5. You’ll find the MSI in the subdirectory jre<version_number> –
6. Do this for both 32-bit and 64-bit Versions

Java 8u162 installation via SCCM Current Branch (1803)

The MSI execution parameters are as follows

32-bit installation:

msiexec /i “jre1.8.0_162.msi” JAVAUPDATE=0 AUTOUPDATECHECK=0 RebootYesNo=No WEB_JAVA=1 /q

Detection Method:

64-bit installation:

msiexec /i “jre1.8.0_162.msi” JAVAUPDATE=0 AUTOUPDATECHECK=0 RebootYesNo=No WEB_JAVA=1 /q

Java 8U162 Update:

Many people are having trouble installing Java 8u25 and 8u31;  I have finally resolved the problem.

1. following this website

Deploy Java 8 Update 25 (Error 1722)

However only modify the following properties values and make sure you change the customAction installexe properties to 3074.

AUTOUPDATECHECK=0
JAVAUPDATE=0
rebootyesno=no

Now you have a new MSI

I also found that if the following file exist the system will fail with a 1603:  %programdata%\oracle\java (this should be a folder not a file)

3.  Run the new MSI via SCCM as stated above and everything should install correctly.
