[quote=scatari]This is a current limitation(a bug) on this environment that
you need a JDK to install. Is there a limitation on installing a JDK on this
machine? Thanks On 1/9/12 5:49 PM, forums_at_java.net wrote: > Hi, > > I am

Hi,
I'm sorry for being slow to respond. When I looked after I posted, my
original msg wasn't there, so I thought it had not made it through. In the
meantime, I was able to get the installer working (on WIn2K3 64-bit, with
Java/JDK 1.6 build 30 64-bit).
I had almost given up, then I almost accidentally got it working :).
What worked was to use the "-j" parameter, but pointing that to the base JDK
directory, i.e.:
ogs...exe -j "c:\program files (x86)\java\jdk1.6xxx"
And, to answer your question, yes, in this case, we're trying to replicate an
environment that includes WIn2K3 64-bit and Java 64-bit, so I had to get it
working.
Thanks,
Jim
