[wix-users] Installing the JRE EXE silently through my own MSI fails

[Mayooran Macilamany]

I have my own msi through which I am trying to install the JRE exe. I am
able to run other EXEs this way. But the JRE EXE is not getting installed.
Below is the error I am getting.

MSI (s) (A0:C4) [05:10:08:690]: Executing op:
CustomActionSchedule(Action=RUN_JAVA,ActionType=1042,Source=C:\Program
Files (x86)\preRequisites\Java.exe,Target=/s,)
MSI (s) (A0:B8) [05:10:32:587]: Running as a service.
CustomAction RUN_JAVA returned actual error code 1618 (note this may not be
100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox)
MSI (c) (FC:BC) [05:10:35:397]: Font created.  Charset: Req=0, Ret=0, Font:
Req=MS Shell Dlg, Ret=MS Shell Dlg

Error 1722. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A
program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your
support personnel or package vendor.  Action RUN_JAVA, location: C:\Program
Files (x86)\preRequisites\Java.exe, command: /s
Action ended 5:10:38: InstallFinalize. Return value 3.
Action ended 5:10:39: INSTALL. Return value 3.

Below is the WiX file I have for my MSI.

I tried running the JRE with the command "<name of the exe> /s". It
installs silently. Why does it fail when installing it through my MSI? How
can I achieve this? Any help would be much appreciated.
