JRE 1.4.2 not detected on another user account
We are using HOD V7 and I need to test something with java JRE 1.4.2_13.
When I install the software (with an admin account) then loging with the user account, HOD tell me that he didn't detect any java version.
When I try the same thing on the admin account everything is ok and working great.
When I try with another admin account I have the same problem as with the normal account.
We are using windows XP SP2.

This isn't a function of Java, but of the operating system. Note this statement from the JRE Installation Instructions for Windows:
You must have administrative permissions in order to install the Java SE Runtime Environment on Microsoft Windows 2000 and XP.
Does it apply? If not, review the Install Instructions for the os you're using.

I am unsing the account "1" to install the software. The account "1" is a member of the local admin group.
I try to open IBM Host-on Demand and everuthing is fine. Then I log a normal user which is not an administrator and when I open Host-on demand I have an error message saying that no Java software is found.
I log back with the account "1" and everything is still fine. Then I log with the account "2" which is also part of the local admin group. When I start HOD I have the error message saying that no java software has been detected.
I have seen this kind of problem with poorly done software that only install itself in the user profile but I don't think that this is the case with this one.
My point is if I have to deploy the JRE on all ocmputer (1000), I don't want to install it on every account.
