New Post: HOW TO: Deploy Java 7 Update 25 (32-bit) & (64-bit) with UAC on or off in client environment.

SergeyL,

The 64-bit installer went according to the WSUS Package Publisher manual for me except a few minor changes i made; I did not remove the quick start service, and I did not remove the auto-updater (7u25 x64 does not have one right now.) The installed/installable string was different, I used {26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F86417025FF}, and followed the guide otherwise. Try dumping your software distribution database and downloads folders after stopping the windows update service, then retry building the update following the guide? Sorry I did not encounter your issue with the 64-bit version of the installer; I encountered many an issue with the 32-bit installer.
