Java APIs

Hi All,

I am trying to run RMI tutorial from sun's java tutorial. It has 8 parts. The last two parts are "Compiling the Example Programs" and "Running the Example Programs".

Until "Compiling the Example Programs", I am okay.

But I am stuck in the last part, "Running the Example Programs". When I use the command "rmiregistry", it gives me a list of exceptions as follows.


c:\home\ann\src>rmiregistry
java.rmi.server.ExportException: Listen failed on port: 1099; nested exception is:
java.net.SocketException: Permission denied: listen failed

c:\home\ann\src>

Then, I try to use "start rmiregistry" command. At that time, a command window stating the above exception popup just for a while and closed automatically.

Now, I use jdk1.6.0_16 on Windows Vista.

Previously, I used j2sdk1.4.2_19. That time, I could run "start rmiregistry" properly and could try testing another RMI example application.

But if I use j2sdk1.4.2_19, compiling some statements in the sun's RMI tutorial gives me error. So, I change to use jdk1.6.0_16 for this tutorial. "jdk1.6.0_16" compiles all programs in the tutorial with no error. But I can't run the statement "start rmiregistry".

I use the command prompt from Vista's default Administrator account and already disable User Account Control too.

Any help, please!

Thanks a lot,
