Hi Gurus,

We are planning to install JRE 1.5.12 in the PI 7.0 server with Service Pack 11, whereas currently it is 1.4.2.

Please note we will not remove the 1.4.2 version from the PI Server but will add this new version as well. What will be impact of installing JRE 1.5.12.

Regards

It is not recommended to have JDK 1.5 on the system where PI 7.0 is installed. When u install 1.5, it may replace several configurations already defined for 1.4 as the newer version updates the older version at most of the places. Why to take risk?

Hi Prateek,

i like to know what is the impact when JRE 1.5 replaces Configurations in SAP XI Server.

U can't find all implications of non-recommended solutions documented anywhere. It could only be based on individual's experience. e.g. As mentioned, in message mapping some of the options would turn out to be disabled. Some problem may arise when using java proxy and adapter module.

Hi,

When you install the 1.5.12 , this will over write the 1.4.2, ther will not any problem while installation.

once you do this 1.5.12 will be in use and if u have java version greater than 1.4.2, some mapping icons will not be in active and runtime problems can occur
