Problem inatalling Jaikoz 3.5.0 Build 1078

When trying to install I get the error:
The application you are trying to install requires a 1.6.0_04 version or later of the Java platform. you are running a 1.6.0_03 version of the Java platform. Please upgrade to a newer version.

So I upgraded my Java version to the latest with the Java Upgrade tool. I’m now on the latest version (build 1.6.0_19-b04). I’ve restarted my machine, but still get the same error.

In Control Panel -> Java Control Panel, there are several User versiona of Java with 1.6.0_19 and 1.4.2_14 enabled. in System only 1.6.0_19 is enabled.
I’m not sure what else to do. Any ideas?

This is on Windows right ?

It all comes down to your Path, from Start got to Accessories/Command prompt and type

Java -version

this will show the version of the first Java it can find, and this will be what the jaikoz installer uses.

Normally when you install a later version of Java the system will get updated to use that but it looks like you need to modify your PATH or JAVA_HOME environment variable which can be done in Control Panel/System/Advanced System Settings/Environment Variables

Yep, Windows XP.

the result of Java -version is:

java version “1.6.0_19”
Java™ SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_19-b04)
Java HotSpot™ Client VM (build 16.2-b04, mixed mode, sharing)

Also the result of:
echo %JAVA_HOME%
C:\Program Files\Java\jre6

Try running the installer from within the Command Window

I get the same error.

Hmm, makes no sense to me, anyone else have any ideas ?
