Oracle BI Java Host process cannot be started

922915Mar 9 2012 — edited Mar 13 2012
Hi All,

I am currently using OBIEE 10g 10.1.3.4.2 and I am having trouble creating charts/graphs in Siebels Dashboards/Answers.

I am using Windows 7, 64-bit.

After extensively researching the topic, I tried the following solutions but I am still getting the same error:
1. Created a batch file with the following commands:
net start "Oracle BI Server"
net start "Oracle BI Presentation Server"
net start "Oracle BI Java Host"
C:\OracleBI\oc4j_bi\bin\oc4j.cmd -start

2. I have un-installed the 64bit version of Java and installed the 32bit version. I still cannot start the Java Host process.

3. I originally installed the Java SDK in C:\Program Files\Java\... but after reading a few threads from 2008-2009, apparently you could not use any spaces in your path so I re-installed Java simply to C:\Java\...

4. I have specified the following path in the instanceconfig.xml file: <JavaHome>C:\Java\jdk1.7.0_03\</JavaHome>
However, there is another folder in my Java folder (C:\Java\jre7\) so I'm not sure which is the correct folder to specify in the instanceconfig.xml file.

5. I have also set the following System Variables:
set JAVA_HOME=C:\Java\jdk1.7.0_03\
set J2EE_HOME=%ORACLE_HOME%\j2ee\home

6. Finally, here is the error log from the jhostinit0.txt log file:
Type: Error
Severity: 20
Time: Fri Mar 09 13:21:43 2012
File: project/sawjavahostsvc/winmain.cpp Line: 163
Properties: ThreadID-6772
Location:
saw.sawjavahost.initsawjavahost
saw.threads

%1 is not a valid Win32 application.

PS - I can run the Oracle BI Server and Presentation Services fine. Oracle Dashboards and Answers also work correctly (as well as Administration for the metadata layer). It's only when it comes to graphs, I just cannot create any.

Thanks for any help.
