A lot of JRE's installed...

Good morning...

here's something a bit wierd, but at least it doesn't involve pvc.

i installed sun's jre1.2.2 and ibm's jre1.2.2. then i installed netscape 6.1 with it's jre1.3.0.

now i have two plug-in control panels, 1 from sun and 1 from ibm and neither shows the same list of jre's. the netscape 1.3 jre doesn't show up anywhere. and there's a java.exe (which reports -version of 1.3.0_01) in my c:/winnt/system32 directory!

so anybody have any idea what would happen if i tried to run a java plug-in applet on my machine?

My current experience is that the LAST JRE you installed

is the one that will be in effect.

Note that unless you are careful, some JDK's auto install

their JRE as an assumption that you want it.

The solution? Uninstall all of them, and install the one

that will normally be downloaded by your HTML page.

Oh ya - when uninstalling - always delete any remaining directories and verify the Windows Registry has been properly cleaned out. Then, as always with Windows, make sure you reboot.

Also - have one machine that is not for development

and has never had IDE's or JRE's or their ilk ever installed.

Hi,

you can control which Java VM will be loaded when an applet is executed which requires the plugin. Have a look at the plugin properties panel. There's a page on it which lets you select the Java VM that shall be used when running the applet. You can find out what VM is loaded if you choose to display the plugin console. One of the first actions of the loaded plugin is to print it's version to the console window.
