Unsupported JDK during installation

[Former Member]

I need to install Netweaver AS Java 7.0 SR3 and It seems that I need to install Solution Manager. I have a problem when running sapinst with the JDK version which is not supported. It requires also only 64 bit jdk.

My machine is Intel Xeon running Windows 2008 64 bit and there is no suiteable jdk in SUN.

According to installation guides, it should be minimum 1.4.2_09 and release 5 and 6 are not supported.

What should I do ?

Thanks,

Hi Haim Beyhan,

Pls download the j2sdk-1_4_2_17-windows-i586-p.exe from the Link:

[https://cds.sun.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/WFS/CDS-CDS_Developer-Site/en_US/-/USD/ViewFilteredProducts-SingleVariationTypeFilter]

I am sure that, this will be supported for the Windows Server2008 ^4 Bit Version as well.

Kindly check this out and let me know the response.

As well as ensure that you have set the Java Path in the Environment Variables of User Variable as --> JAVA_HOME = <Drive Letter>:\<j2sdk1.4.2_17>

and add it in the System Path as well like under Path= <Drive Letter>:\<j2sdk1.4.2_17>\bin then Click on OK OK.

Go to the Command Prompt and Check the Java Version is Displaying or Not:

c:>Java -version and Click on Enter.

Then you come to know , the installed JAVA Version is working or not.

And ensure that if you have installed any previous versions Uninstall the same thro the Control Panel First.

At the same time Uncheck the Boxes in the IE or Firfox versions of JRE or JAVA VM.

Check it out and let me know the response.

Cheers!!

I checked that site and the version for windows x64 is for AMD processors and not Intel. I tried to install it but it gave me error.

AMD64 and Intel x86_64 are synonyms, Intel licensed the 64bit extension by AMD.

Make sure you didn't download the IA64 - that one is different.

Hi,

Please refer to below note "Note 941595 - Download J2SE 1.4.2 for the x64 platform".

From this note, you will get a link to download the 64 BIT JDK from SUN website.

I found out that there is a special JDK for Windows 2008 which is supported and released by SAP.

Check the 3. question in the link below.

Where do I download that version?

Hi,

Markus is very right. So you can download the JDK version for the AMD64. It worked for me in case of Intel Processor when I was installing ERP 6 SR3.

It worked for me too now. I downloaded the 1.4.2_21 version.
