Original status: 1-Dispatched; Suggested Status: NEW Original Target Release: ; Suggested Target Milestone : 5.5 Description: FULL PRODUCT VERSION : ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION : SunOS uni00wcm.unity.ncsu.edu 5.8 Generic_117350-45 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V240 A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM : Bundled JRE is not binary compatible with host OS/Arch or it is corrupt. Testing bundled JRE failed. STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM : chmod 0755 jdk-6-nb-5_5-solsparc.bin ./jdk-6-nb-5_5-solsparc.bin EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR : EXPECTED - Expected to install the new environment. ACTUAL - Received an error messages. ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR : Bundled JRE is not binary compatible with host OS/Arch or it is corrupt. Testing bundled JRE failed. REPRODUCIBILITY : This bug can be reproduced always. Evaluation: - Can you try running the installer with "-is:log <logfile>" and attach the logfile? - Also, in most cases, this error message seems to be appear when the temporary directory does not have enough space. (In such cases, the error message itself is of course misleading, but the message comes from InstallShield and cannot be controlled from nb installer). You can try running the installer with "-is:tempdir <tempdir>" parameter and specify a temp directory that has enough space. - This bug looks like a duplicate of 6376490. Can you try the workaround in that bug: ...Insert a dummy parameter: -is:nospacecheck IGNORE...
A request for log files was made.

First I recommend to verify MD5 checksum to verify downloaded installer file is not corrupted. As MD5 checksums are not available for jdkbundle installer at download page I give it here: e65fb583e4e0da8986277d7bfb531cb1 jdk-6-nb-5_5-linux.bin ed436ac63db556c451bda546b28112c4 jdk-6-nb-5_5-solsparc.bin d527120ef1022c49b2e2b47442da6b03 jdk-6-nb-5_5-solx86.bin 09144893531248ae9d6a39447257771d jdk-6-nb-5_5-win.exe You installer is: ed436ac63db556c451bda546b28112c4 jdk-6-nb-5_5-solsparc.bin
Obsolete milestone, please reevaluate
For NB 6.0 we have new installer so this issue will not happen. For NB 5.5/5.5.1 we cannot fix this => closing as WONTFIX.
