oms configuration failing as 64 bit java executable cannot be found
715773Jul 27 2010 — edited Aug 28 2010I'm installing grid control on Solaris 10 using version 1.6_18 of the Java jdk as advised by the documentation on a 64 bit sparc platform. Also, I'm using web logic 10.3.2 from the generic installation (via the single jar) and I have applied the WDJ7 patch to the web logic installation. When installing grid control, which is painfully slow when it comes to creating the repository in the target database it fails on the oms configuration step with:-
INFO: oracle.sysman.top.oms:execve(): No such file or directory

When I downloaded the 1.6_18 jdk there was only one distribution, i.e. no distinction is made as to whether the installation platform is 32 or 64 bit. I understand that with version 1.6_21 of the jdk you can get the 64 bit run time via the SUNWj6rtx package, however the Oracle documentation explicitly states that 1.16_18 should be used and there are plenty of articles on the internet stating that if a different versions of the 1.6 JDK are used this will cause problems further down the line. Can someone advise me has to how to resolve this issue.
