[Netbeans 200412210916; JDS R3; JDK 1.5.0_01] When I launch installer on JDS I get following text on command line: InstallShield Wizard Initializing InstallShield Wizard... Searching for Java(tm) Virtual Machine... ................................... .................................... .................................. .................................... .........The wizard cannot continue because of the following error: could not load wizard tree specified in /wizard.inf (106) This error occurs in latest builds. The last build which I can install is 200412141900, all newer produce this message. I have also tried to install Netbeans from the jar and that works fine, there's no error there.
As usual. It is known issue of JDK 1.4.2_06 build 02. Update to build 03. Installer first searches for JDK 1.4.X. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 48633 ***
Try with -is:log <log file> to find out what JVM is found by native launcher.
Yes, you're right, upgrade to b03 helped. Note that version 1.4.2_06-ea-b01 is default in JDS R3 so JDS users will get into this kind of trouble. The strange thing is that the problem occurred only for builds newer than 200412141900, earlier there was no problem. Verified.
It might be caused by recent changes in installers: I made JVM resolution for all installers/uninstallers the same. First JDK 1.4.X is searched by native launcher.
