Installation question - AppServer 8.2

I installed SJSAS8.2 PE yesterday using all defaults, but was unable to start the server.

The error appeared to be related to a path with a blank in the path name.

The warning basically said that pathnames containing blanks could cause the server not to start.

I assumed that to be the issue.

During the install process, the installation application identified my most recent JDK as being in the directory:

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_05

Since the application could not start, and I did not see a convenient way of changing the java library location,

I decided to un-install and reinstall using a different JDK.

I ran the uninstall utility and it ended OK.

I then tried to re-install the program and recieved the following error in the installation log:

The directory already exists from the previous install.

Do I need to delete the directory structure before I can reinstall?

What do I need to do to reinstall after an un-install?

Also, is there any way to accept path names with blanks?

If not, then maybe they should not be displayed as defaults when found.

Hmmm. I don't think we have a problem with spaces in path.

Can you please try the following:

- cd install-dor/config

- edit asenv.conf

- see what AS_JAVA points to. Make sure that this value is double quoted.

- cd install-dir/bin

- asadmin create-domain --adminuser admin --adminport 4848 newdomain

Thanks,

Kedar

Thanks for the suggestion, but I have decided NOT to implement JSC2_Update1 and just remain with JSC2 that uses App Server 9.1.

I cannot afford the IDE to be ANY SLOWER than it already is.

My brief (and unpleasant) experience with JSC2_Update 1 suggests to me that is even slower than JSC2 for what I am doing.

i have same problem with

CLI130 Could not create domain, domain1

then i try these things with PATH stuff but it haven't worked for me...

then i tried to search windows registry for string domain1 and nothing found...

then i searched my profile directory (on windowsxp c:\Documents and Settings\user on linux /home/user) for files that containd string domain1 and i found some .adadmin* files (as i remember there were 3 files) then i deleted them, try to install sun app server and it works for me... there are still some warnings but at least installation finishes and files were not deleted...

i hope this help...

for me it does
