GPO - Unable To Deploy Java 10 64bit - Fails to install (1603 Error)
- 
 @jaredbusch Could you point me to some documentation? I may have missed that part.

 Here is link from ms. 
 https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/834484/you-receive-an-error-1603-a-fatal-error-occurred-during-installation-e
 It details cause and possible resolutions.

 @momurda My understanding is that 1603 errors are normally "generic" non-specific errors. I am pretty sure I covered all bullet pointed causes during my testing. There may be some Java 10 remnants in there somewhere, but the Java uninstall tool didn't find anything and I have tried applying the GPO to a machine that supposedly never had Java installed before - it still failed in the same way 
- 
 Can you run the java 10 msi file directly with success? 
 Perhaps prereq software needed.

 Perhaps prereq software needed.Yep. If I manually run the MSI, it installs fine. 
- 
 Try this msiexec /i "jre10filename.msi" /q ENTERPRISE=YESJust a long shot, obviously change it to the msi file name for java10.

 http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre10-downloads-4417026.htmlIt is also interesting that Oracle has not updated java.com to reference 10.0.1. 
 It is only available from oracle.com.

 @momurda said in GPO - Unable To Deploy Java 10 64bit - Fails to install (1603 Error): msiexec /i "jre10filename.msi" /q ENTERPRISE=YES What does the ENTERPRISE switch do? Were you recommending I test to see if it fails installation when I run the command manually or did you want me to modify the MSI to add that value? Or create a transform (never done that before)?

 It supposed to do things the enterprise way, silently, no reboots. https://www.java.com/en/download/help/msi_install.xml 
 They say here you only get this with the paid version of JRE but I think that isn't true.

Just add the switch to your install command. It is obvious what it means from your earlier error of ERROR: LocalSystem is only supported for Enterprise MSI.You are only allowed to install Java locally with the enterprise MSI. That switch seems to tell it that it is the Enterprise version.

- 
 Why are you trying to install Java 10 when even java.com still installs Java 8?

 They say here you only get this with the paid version of JRE but I think that isn't true.For the record, the chocolatey package is also still Java 8 and uses these arguments. They do not use ENTERPRISE$installArgs = "/s REBOOT=0 SPONSORS=0 AUTO_UPDATE=0 $32dir" $installArgs64 = "/s REBOOT=0 SPONSORS=0 AUTO_UPDATE=0 $64dir"

Yes, that is what I remember. Now to find a source for that. I thought it was a thread here.

But it is likely what I was half assed remembering.
