Stefan Seelmann commented on DIRSTUDIO-283:
-------------------------------------------
Thanks Dennis for your report.
I have another workaround: As Apache Directory Studio is based on Eclipse RCP,
all Eclipse command line options are valid for Studio. You could start Studio
by appending "-vm <path to java executable>" to the command line. Another
option is to create the config file "ApacheDirectoryStudio.ini" with proper
content.
I added this information to our FAQ:

> Windows installer uses the JRE set by JAVA_HOME, so Studio will not start if
> JAVA_HOME is pointing to 1.4

> After installing Directory studio I try to start it. This fails with an error
> message, telling me to look at the logfile (attached). Basically it's saying
> it can't run Studio because it is compiled with Java 1.5.
> Other installers for Windows, that creates an executable file to run a
> program written in Java, usually have one of two options:
> - Allow you to select which JRE to use during installation
> - A configuration file where you can set the path to the JRE you want to use
> I found a configuration file in ${installdir}/configuration/config.ini, but I
> didn't find any instructions on how to change the used JRE. Perhaps it is not
> possible.
> I need to have JAVA_HOME set to 1.4 because that's what I need when running
> java from the command line. However other GUI-based java applications doesn't
> seem to mind this.
> As a, not so pretty, work-around I have created a .bat file that resets
> JAVA_HOME temporarily and the calls the Studio executable.
