> My previous 6.3 server used java 1.4.2 so going down the same lines FYI, Java 5.0 (a.k.a. 1.5) is the minimum supported version of Java for AR System 7.1.00. This is documented in the compatibility matrix: http://www.bmc.com/support/bmcremedycomp/index.htm So you'll need to upgrade your Java version. -David J.

My previous 6.3 server used java 1.4.2 so going down the same lines, i have pointed the install to the same directory, only for the installer to complain....... Please enter the Java installation directory: [/usr/java] Web Services using Java JRE path: /usr/java Java Version: 1.4.2 Web Services for Linux requires the IBM JRE version 1.5.0 or greater Web Services and Java Plugin Server cannot be configured without a valid Java JDK or JRE. Do you want enter a different Java home path? [n] On this installation, i will actually be running mid tier on a seperate server so with this in mind, should i start the installer again and NOT specify a Java home path ??? thanks in advance Sean __Platinum Sponsor: RMI Solutions ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are" html___ _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org Platinum Sponsor: RMI Solutions ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"
