Installation Iusse

[Robert Sherry]

 

            I am now to OFBiz. I recently installed OFBiz on my personal
computer which runs Windows XP. When I ran the batch file

startofbiz.bat I got the following error:

 

            C:\OFBiz>echo off

            C:\OFBiz>"c:\Program Files\Java\bin\java" -X  -jar ofbiz.jar

            The system cannot find the path specified.

 

Now, by environment variable JAVA_HOME is set to C:\Program Files\Java. I
fixed the problem (but I consider this fix some what of a kludge) by
changing line 54

in the file startofbiz.bat from:

            "%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java" -Xms128M -Xmx512M -XX:MaxPermSize=128m
-jar ofbiz.jar

to:

            java -Xms128M -Xmx512M -XX:MaxPermSize=128m -jar ofbiz.jar

 

With this change, the program does indeed start up and it appears to work.
Did I do something wrong in the installation process? Is there a problem
with the installation script?

 

Thanks

There is nothing wrong with the batch file - it works fine on Windows XP.

Open a command window and try typing "set | more" to make sure your
JAVA_HOME environment variable is set.

Adrian,

        Thanks for the response. As it turns out by JAVA_HOME environment
variable was set, but not set to the right directory. I fixed this issue and
I am now up and running with the demo.
