Y:/QIBM/ProdData/Java400/jdk14 is not a valid JDK directory

Hi:

I have the following error in Sapinst during installation of NW 7.01.

Y:\QIBM\ProdData\Java400\jdk14\bin\java -classpath ./JAR/ins-j2ee.jar com.sap.ins.j2ee.GetSystemProperty" finished with return code 1. Output:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/sap/ins/j2ee/GetSystemProperty

at java.lang.Throwable.<init>(Throwable.java:195)

at java.lang.LinkageError.<init>(LinkageError.java:36)

at java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError.<init>(NoClassDefFoundError.java:40)

Directory Y:/QIBM/ProdData/Java400/jdk14 is not a valid JDK directory.

If I excute "java -version" in a QSH session, this is the output:

java -version

java version "1.4.2"

Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_16-b05)

Classic VM (build 1.4, build JDK-1.4, native threads, jitc_de)

I already renamed the other jdk directories in /QIBM/ProdData/Java400, but the problem is still there.

Any idea of whatmay be happening?

Thanks and regards.

Hi Gabriel,

Have you installed JDK 1.4 5722JV1 option 4 of OS/400 ?

And have you installed the required Java hiper PTF group?

In the old 7.00 installers you entered the path according to the local sapinst NT host.

But since 7.10 you enter the paths as seen from the application server you install.

7.01 is a transition between 7.00 and 7.10 technology....

So I would use the full path of the JDK as seen from the applcation server aka the IBM i

Not as seen from the mapped drive on the NT installation PC

Have you tried /QIBM/ProdData/Java400/jdk14 ??

Kind regards,

Hi Paul:

Thanks for your answer. I already tried executing the command directly in the server i, using the path as in this server, with the same results.

Now I'm checking the PTF level of the Java component, looks like some PTF may be missing.

I'll be in touch.

Thanks and regards.
