  Have you tried the AdoptOpenJDK builds (especially now Oracle want to charge you for installing their java version in a business environment):

  They provide native MSI installers which should be easier to deploy and they include support for setting reg keys the same as Oracle Java for dealing with any apps that explicitly check for these keys during install to verify java is installed.

  See partway down this page for more details on things like install switches to control what features/settings get enabled:

  Don’t install it. Sandbox it!

  Get the zip version of it and extract it into the folder of your choosing. Then just update your PATH enviromental variable with the path to the extracted bin folder. I’ve used this method several times and it worked without issue.

  Ah, I didn’t even know about this. Is it an open source alternative to JRE? I did install it on the server with no problem, but the software is still asking me to install JRE 8 171.

  This is an interesting way to do it. I’ll try it and see if I can get it working. Do I just download the .gz file from the Java site?

  Hey again,

         so I’m thinking this might be what I need to do, but I can’t seem to execute it properly. I’ve ran the installation for JRE 8.231 and it’s created a directory in my Program Files (see attached), but the program that I’m installing is still saying that it needs Java. Another strange thing is that the program actually tries to install JRE but it fails there as well.

  I have tried to setx through the command line (again, I’m running core), but either I didn’t do it correctly or it simply didn’t work.

  Would you be able to provide me with any other advice regarding this? I don’t want to, but if I can’t get this working properly I’ll have to re-install the OS with desktop experience. I’ve tested it there and it works flawlessly. I just really want to run core!

  Yes, this is OpenJDK which is the FOSS version (but still binary compatible with Oracle Java), when you install it make sure you tell it to set the Oracle reg keys (FeatureOracleJavaSoft if you are using commandline options), as most software will check these keys to detect if Java is installed.

  No, they have zip formats which I normally get. However, while this allows you to use Java without actually installing it, I didn’t mention the Oracle JRE roadmap. As mentioned above, AdoptOpenJDK and Amazon Corretto are strong/good alternatives. Oracle Java JRE will only be free to non-corporate users after this coming January in case you weren’t aware. 

  Having said that, I think you should be able to do the same thing of sandboxing it with AdoptOpenJDK, however, I’ve never tested this.

  When you tried your setx command, what happened and which variable were you trying to set? You should be able to test a variable’s values at the cmd prompt
  for example:     echo %path% 

  Finally, what is the app you are trying to get working? This may help us assist further.

  Hi! 

  Here’s what I did to successfully install Java 8 u241 x64 on Server Core 2019 1909. 

  Run silent installation 

  BASH

  jre-8u241-windows-x64.exe /s
  

  When the installation is done reboot your computer.  

  The odd thing is that the installation doesn’t create JAVA_HOME system environment variable and its why it doesn’t work for you. Basically your application don’t know where to find Java. 

  Take a snapshot or backup your system before you change your system variables, believe me its very easy to wipe them from cmd.

  To add JAVA_HOME variable use 

  BASH

  setx -m JAVA_HOME "C:Program FilesJavajre1.8.0_241"
  

  The new variable will appear after system reboot. 

  To check system environment variables run set command.

  Here is my output.
