William, What is the line in armonitor.conf?... does it start of as java abc, or is it c:\prog*\java? If it's just Java, try fully qualifying the line to the 'proper' java.
Is your Remedy running as 'system', or as a user? If it's running as a user, then that user account could have its own environment variables that you might not be seeing when you are remoted into the server that could be causing issues. Looking at your path, I see that you actually have your jre7 in your path twice...first is 4th from the front, second is 4th from the end...that shouldn't hurt anything, but it doesn't need to be there either :) On Thu, Aug 21, 2014 at 10:31 AM, William Rentfrow < [email protected]> wrote: > ** > > Hi listers - > > > > I've been working on a vanilla 8.1 install as I've had time for a sandbox > I can test stuff in.
