Installer never finds and uses 64 bit VM.. bunky% java -version java version "1.4.2_04" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_04-b05) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.4.2_04-b05, mixed mode) Using -is:javahome <java dir> doesn't help.... Both JDK_HOME and JAVA_HOME are set and point to the valid java. This is a third party VM but it has passed all JCK required tests.
Who is the vendor of your third party VM?
Gemstone Systems. I do the QA and JCK compliance for the VM. The VM is based on the Sun JDK source code for Solaris with modifications to support our object database. The one signifcant difference is that we don't ship 32 bit libraries with our VM. The 3.5.1 installer works fine if that is any help. If there is a verbose option on the installer I can retest and help to discover why this doesn't work, we strongly feel that this isn't a java compliance issue but the installer not working correctly in identifying a valid java vm.
Thanks for the added info. This will help alot. There are two problems that need to be dealt with here. One is the jvm files which are easily updated and the other is the jdk selection panel where you enter the jdk you want to use withe the ide. This second won't get done for RC2 which I believe is tomorrow. I'll check if the installer builds can be redone once a change is implemented.
Added two jvm files for 1.42 and 1.4.1 generic jvms.
Vince, please verify that it works for you and mark this bug verified if it does. Otherwise, reopen it.
