Denis Golovin commented on JBDS-4007:
-------------------------------------

This is a problem with OpenJDK MSI installer, which does not support update in case previous build is installed. For example if you try to override 91st build with 101st build, you get attached message. Installing the same build twice works fine.

We have two options here:
1. Switch to the same approach we still have for vagrant and virtual box and do not allow to install new jdk if another one is present;
2. Switch back zip distribution and that would require make it available in from download manager along with MSI. Currntly only MSI version is available from developers.redhat.com (see https://developers.redhat.com/download-manager/rest/available/openjdk8)

> Now that OpenJDK is being installed using the msi installer, a new possible issue has arisen:
> Basically it's the same problem we had with Vagrant and Virtualbox - one cannot simply try to reinstall msi package into a different folder.
