Add highly visible info for Unix user about "-is:javahome <java_install_dir>" IS parametr. InstallShield installer does not start at all on Unix systems if J2SE was installed using .bin or .sh installer into some non standard location. Those are location different from /usr/j2se or similar. This parametr tells installer where to look for J2SE installed and WANTED by user. If it is not specified then installation ends with command line message "No matching JVM was found." and user will have to download .zip.
I don't think it is P1. InstallShield writes usage info of "is:javahome" when it couldn't find jvm. Is it correct to have this bug signed as P1? Is it according to qa quidlines?
Created attachment 6580 [details] screenshot of standard IS output when jvm is not found
Look at screenshot and tell me what you want?
Signig as INVALID.
Resolved for 3.4 or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
