Install JRE with msi without removing old version in a mixed 32-bit/64-bit environment: typo
On 64-bit hosts installing the exe doesn't work.
jre-6u17-windows-i586-s.exe is a 32bit app containing a msi, a cab and some other files.
On a 32-bit host it unpacks in in c:\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\jre1.6.0_17\.On a 64-bit host it unpacks in c:\Windows\SysWOW64\config\systemprofile\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\jre1.6.0_17.
The silent install on a 64-bit host is still looking for the msi in the 32-bit directory.
So the best thing to do is to install the msi package.
Copy the content of \Windows\SysWOW64\config\systemprofile\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\jre1.6.0_17
on your server and install from it
 
if a 64bits msiexec is started by the exe then it can't find jre1.6.0_17.msi as it is not there.
System32 when in 64bits mode is not the same system32 you got in 32bits mode
 
Copy the content of c:\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\jre1.6.0_17\ or c:\Windows\SysWOW64\config\systemprofile\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\jre1.6.0_17
on your server and install from it.
