Can't compile java programs
843810Feb 14 2003 — edited May 20 2008I have recently changed my OS to winXP pro (clean install), i have installed j2sdk1.4.1_01, have set the path variable like it says in the installation instructions.
When i try to compile a program i get this error message: "the system cannot find the file specified"
the error message box title bar reads: "C:\windows\system32\javac.exe"
why is the system looking in "system32" for javac when the variable path is set to C:\j2sdk1.4.1_01\bin?
if i copy javac into the system32 folder i just get more error messages.
the jre seems to work ok as i can run previously compiled programs that i made on my old OS.
can anyone help me?
