JVM problem on Linux
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

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"
