Re: Java 1.5 bug

2007-04-18 Thread Vyom Labs - ITSM Support

Hi Rick,
While installing MT on my machine (with 1.5.0_11 Java SDK,Tomcat 5.0 
already installed), a warning message was displayed saying that the java 
version on my machine is not compatible as per its requirements. And so 
the MT may not work properly. So I made few experiments with the 
installation and found the following.
Actually, whenever we start installation of MT, it looks in the 
registry for the version of jdk. Since it doesn't
find path of JAVA_HOME over there, it was giving the above warning. 
Ignoring it, setup continues and completes successfully. You can either 
go for the solution you mentioned


HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Development Kit\1.5
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Development Kit\1.5.0_11 
Or
you can simply set the JAVA_HOME in environmental variables. This will 
override its absense in the registry

andall will work smoothly.

Thanks,
Anshuman

Guys, just a heads-up on this one for those doing new installs.  
Support clued me into it when trying to solve a larger MT install problem.
 
If you plan to use the 1.5.0_11 Java SDK, know that it has a bug that 
prevents it from writing its install path to the Registry.  This 
prevents the Mid-Tier install from seeing that the JDK is installed at 
all.
 
The workaround is to either use another version or to manually enter 
the path in the following places:


HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Development Kit\1.5

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Development Kit\1.5.0_11
