Yes you are right you need to create JAVA_HOME variable which would be under system variable and its value should be path where Java Development Kit is installed (For example C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_17)
The PATH variable which is already defined under System variable - add path value up to bin of jdk ( for example :C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_17\bin) On Thu, Feb 25, 2010 at 7:36 PM, JKid314159 <lucky314...@gmail.com> wrote: > HI! > Almost Success?? > > I am not sure this is the best method.
