Perhaps you need to set the JAVA_HOME and/or JRE_HOME environment variables?

We are trying to upgrade from 8.1.02 to 18_05.  We are running in a Solaris 
environment.  ARS has upgraded and we are now trying the CMDB installer.  It 
keeps failing with the error, "incorrect jre path", however you are never 
prompted to enter a jre path.  We have tried modifying the path in the  file, 
AtriumCoreInstallingConfiguration.xml and AtriumCoreInstalled.xml and still get 
the same message.  We think this is because it appears the installer overwrites 
that path

We think the root cause might be the setup.bin, as we have noticed that the 
installer seems to append the bin directory to the java path.  So our java path 
is usr/java/jre, however I think it is looking for java in the usr/java/jre/bin 
directory.

Has anyone else experienced this issue or have any ideas how to get around the 
error?

CMDB 18_05 Installer fails

With it described like that, it sounds like some kind of plugin at work.

2018-10-05 Thread LJ LongWing
So, you have a record that can get the attachment no problem, but when you
look at the DB there is no B or BC entry for the attachment?if this is
true then the only way that can possibly be delivered is through the Remedy
server, meaning it's not stored in the db at all, it's stored in the Remedy
binaries and delivered as if it existed in the db.
