For some reason some dlls(jp2ssv.dll, ssv.dll, dtplugin\npdeployJava1.dll) are not copied to JAVA_HOME/bin before the moment when RegisterDeployEx() is called by the installer.
According to the provided log, the user reproduced it on 8u25, specified install directory as "D:\jdktest". I've tried to do the same, but on my system it works without any errors, the dlls are copied as expected(before RegisterDeployEx() is called by the installer).
In the deployment code, we just use _tstat() to check that file exists, and that code hasn't been modified for several years, so there should not be problems from deployment side. I think this needs to be investigated on installer side(at least to determine if there are cases when those dlls are not copied properly).

Comments
There has only been one case of this reported and it was with an earlier internal build. Closing as not reproducible.

From the matching jusched.log here: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/secure/attachment/24868/jusched07.log it looks like the install is fine up until the RegisterDeploy call. No issues seen with bspatch.exe, or unpacking of the jar files. It's unclear why these specific ssv/npdeploy dll's are missing. If there were any issues with extracting/patching, then the pack commands wouldn't work either. We need to follow up with the customer on this one. I believe there is only one case of this issue.
