jre 6 update 20 on 64-bit Windows 7 - Could not load the Java Virtual Machi

843798May 20 2010
Hi,

I download and installed jre 6 update 20 (64-bit) on Windows 7 (64-bit).

I ran a 3rd party Java application and I got the error saying 'Could not load the Java Virtual Machine.'.

I found that the jvm.dll is installed under c:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\servere folder.

I checked the registry and the JVM is pointing to c:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\client folder.

May questions are:

1) Why does the registry point to the clinet folder instead of server folder?
2) Should I change my registry entry to point to the server folder to fix my error - Could not load the Java Virtual Machine?
3) Is there a better way to fix the issue besides chaning the regiatry?

Thanks.
