JVM problem on Linux

[Praveen_Durbha]

Hi,

I am having issues with the .LAX file on Linux.

The .LAX file (that gets installed during installation) has the following entry in it.

lax.nl.current.vm = vm/bin/java

When I launch the uninstaller, the uninstallation fails as its unable to find the installed JVM in the path above.

However, when I manually change the above entry in the .LAX file to

lax.nl.current.vm = ../_jvm/bin/java

and relaunch the uninstaller, the uninstallation succeeds.

How can I debug this problem so I won't have to manually edit the .LAX file?

Thanks!

Do you install any VM and if yes, where? Does the vm/bin/java exist?

I got this resolved through tech. support..

I have a follow-up question, however..

I need to install the JVM in a folder different from the default user install directory.. To accomplish this, I am using a Magic Folder Variable. I have the VM Install folder in Project --> Java set to $USER_MAGIC_FOLDER_5$ ( I am setting this variable using the "Set IA Variable Action" in the install section of my project.).so I have the variable set like this

$USER_MAGIC_FOLDER_5$ = /usr/local/gehc-it

When I run the installer, the JVM doesn't get installed in the directory above..not sure why..

Thanks

Would you care to share with us how your issue was solved?

Sure..I don't know how it happened, but I ended up with 3 "InstallAnywhere VM Components" and i was supposed to have only 1 under Org --> Components

This was interfering with the JVM that was getting bundled in the installer..The issue was fixed however by changing the default VM Install folder from _jvm to jre under Project --> Java

The Magic Folder issue was resolved as well

If you are using magic folders to change the default install location, just remember to set the variable in the pre-install section before the "Choose Install Folder Panel"
