Can find Java\jdk1.6.0_16
Download and install the JDK. Currently Presto support 1.4.2 and 1.5, although we have done some testing with 1.6. So you may want to download Java 5 (a.k.a, the JDK 1.5) instead.
For 1.5, go to http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index_jdk5.jsp
For 1.6, go to http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
Be sure to download the *Enterprise Edition (JEE)*. Follow the instructions at the Sun site to install.
Then restart the installation for Presto.

Nope, I guess no support for Windows 7 either... since JDK 1.5 wasn't found even though correctly installed. I don't have a machine with all the drivers to go back to Windows XP and JDK 1.5...
JAVA_HOME is set to c:\Progra~1\Java\jre1.5.0_22
Err, I guess I should try again with the EE version. It seems to be working now, I need to work on the proxy config next.
Hi Mark,
I have actually used Presto 2.7.0 on Windows 7 and it does work.
In your latest reply you mentioned that JAVA_HOME is set to c:\Progra~1\Java\jre1.5.0_22
However that is Java Runtime Environment whereas Presto needs JDK to work.
Which means
i. Either JDK is already installed on your machine but JAVA_HOME is not set properly
ii. Or JDK is not installed in which case you will need to install it from the links that Sara mentioned in an earlier reply. Copyin them here:
For 1.5, go to http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index_jdk5.jsp
For 1.6, go to http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
Do let us know how it goes.
I downloaded the JDK 6 Update 18 SE and have loaded. My JAVA_HOME is set to c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_18
I can't get past "Enter Java/JDK home directory". Am I using the correct version of Java? I'm new to Java so this isn't real clear for me. Not sure what I need to do next, any guidance is appreciated.
Thanks.
Although we have had some users succesfully run on Java 1.6, Presto has only been tested fully on Java 1.5.
Can you explain a little more exactly what problem you are seeing? and what your environment is?
You may also want to try the links in this thread that were posted just before your question. They have links to where to find Java 1.5.

I am trying to follow the install instructions and I am at the command prompt where I am to enter the ~program files\java\jdk1.6.0_16 location. I do not have a jdk folder under my java folder. I have a jre folder instead. What do I need to do to get the correct jdk placed into my java folder?
