>Number: 3635 >Category: mod_jserv >Synopsis: I have a solution to the %java_exe% bug in Win 98 installs. >Confidential: no >Severity: serious >Priority: medium >Responsible: jserv >State: open >Class: sw-bug >Submitter-Id: apache >Arrival-Date: Fri Jan 8 23:10:01 PST 1999 >Last-Modified: >Originator: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Organization: apache >Release: 1.3.3 >Environment: Win 98 with only the MS-SDK installed (no Sun JDK) >Description: I have a solution to the problems described in PR #3614. The problem is it can't find %java_exe%, which turns out to be the value of the Java VM the install is looking for (java.exe for the Sun JDK and jview.exe for the MS JDK).
>How-To-Repeat: Install mod_jserv on Win32 with ONLY the MS-SDK. >Fix: Someone basically did not expand the value of %java_exe% when putting up the error message. The REAL problem is that the installer seems to ALWAYS look for "java.exe" NEVER for "jview.exe" I was able to fix the problem by 1) Waiting for the "Can't find" error message. 2) Renaming "jview.exe" to "java.exe" and pointing the installer at the "<MS-JDK installpath>/bin". 3) The install finishes and then I change the name back to "jview.exe" and change the jserv.properties file line "wrapper.bin" to point to "jview.exe".
