Jdeveloper and SqlDeveloper and Vista x64 issues

632664May 22 2008 — edited Feb 25 2010
Hello,

I have this issue when i try to run jdeveloper in vista. The aero effect gets disabled. And while i have seen the fix for this problem amongst the threads, i have not been able to fix the issue on my computer.

I have downloaded the sqldeveloper base install and have been able to use it with both jdk 1.5 and 1.6 (both of which i have installed on my machine) i use the batch file in the sqldeveloper/bin direcotry only though, the sqldeveloper.exe throws the same error as i am about to describe for jdeveloper. SO in essence my sqldeveloper works correctly cuz i can use the updated 1.5 or 1.6 to have my aero effect.

I have downoladed the base install of the jdeveloper studio edition. Like i said above I have both jdk 1.5 and 1.6 installed on my computer. But for the jdeveloper what i have done is i copied the contents of the 1.5 jdk folder and made a folder called 'jdk" in the jdeveloper home directory (since this is by default were the program tries to look). But when i try to load jdev.exe it throws the following error in the cmd window..

WARNING: Could not find jvm.cfg! in '..\..\jdk\jre\lib\jvm.cfg"
WARNING: Cannot find default VM 'hotspot' at ..\..\jdk
ERROR: cannot find VM at: ..\..\jdk
Aborting!

I have tried modifying my jdev.conf SetJavaVM propert by comenting out and by changing it from 'client' 'hotspot' or server.. nothing works. Will post the complete jdev.conf under this.

Any help to get jdev working will be greatly appreciated i am starting to lose hope and don't want to lose aero everytime.

Thanks
