RE: Java Update 11
I could be wrong but I believe this is the first release that should be uninstalling previous versions, starting with update 10. Maybe it is hanging on trying to uninstall update 10. That assumes update 10 was even installed. You could try removing update 10 then running your GP to see if it hangs or not. I personally have not tried applying that update yet.

RE: Java Update 11
Interesting. I believe that it was update 10 that was supposed to uninstall the prior versions but it didn't. If I manually uninstall 10 and then try the GP deploy it works just fine. h Mark - Two rules to success in life: 1.

RE: Java Update 11
Even if I apply the mst it still hangs though. I'll dig into the mst and look at the options. Mark - Two rules to success in life: 1.

Therefore, if you are running only the msi without the transform you will be installing v11 on top of (insert Shook joke here...) v10, which apparently doesn't work reliably...if at all.

RE: Java Update 11
Update 10 is not supposed to uninstall prior versions. Verison 10 is the first version that is supposed to be uninstalled by future versions (like 11). In my case, 11 did uninstall 10.

Do you have Orca, or another MSI editor? I put opened the Java msi in Orca then applied the mst to it and resaved it as an msi in its transformed state with no issues.
