Hi omnifred,

Try to use msiexec.exe /i <Path to MSI> /L*V <Path to where the log file be created (EX: C:\Log\java.log)>

Hope this helps,

Hi Fred,
be aware that the logs for a machine GPO install go to 'systemroot\temp'.

I think you meant "%windir%\temp" as the installation is run under the system context using machine GPO.
