Re: [freenet-support] Windows and JRE 1.5
This would make a good entry in the FAQ. -todd Quoting Dave Hooper [EMAIL PROTECTED]: webinstall.exe only accepts 1.4.x JRE. Maybe that should be changed but, until it is, you won't be able to install freenet that way. Of course, you could just hack your registry and it will just work: After installing JRE 1.5 (or whatever JRE you want to use) create this key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment\1.4 and copy everything from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment\1.5.1_5 (or whatever it's called) into ...\1.4 also. That will trick the installer into thinking the JRE is a 1.4 JRE. Alternatively somebody could fix the installer. I don't think there are any significant reasons why you can't just install a 1.4 JRE in the first place... d - Original Message - From: Gilles Gravier To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 19, 2004 8:11 AM Subject: [freenet-support] Windows and JRE 1.5 Hi!

Re: [freenet-support] Windows and JRE 1.5
No, it should be fixed. 1.5 has several advantages over 1.4 e.g. 64-bit support.
