Hi,

I am quite new to Java. I am using Windows Vista Home Premium operating system. I have downloaded Java 1.6 update 20 (jdk-6u20-windows-i586) from sun website and installed it.

I then added the below directories to the path environment variable.

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_20\bin
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_20\jre\bin

I then tried to install the Oracle 11g by starting the Universal Installer but ended up with the below error.

The Java RunTime Environment was not found at \bin\javaw.exe. Hence the oracle universal installer can not be run. Please visit http://www.javasoft.com and install JRE version 1.3.1 or higher and try again.

Any clue on this really make my life pleasant. I am totally stuck and its driving me crazy for the past 2 days.

Thanks
Suresh
