Thanks for responding Barbara,
I tried Dan's suggestion and as you stated, it did not work.
I reviewed the link you posted but knowing very little about java and its
role in the RPG environment is quite foreign to me, so the sentence "To get
rid of that message, just remove the java.version property from
the RPG environment variable, and from any of the places that Java looks
for Java properties." is the challenge.
"'The RPG runtime only passes the properties that are specified in the
QIBM_RPG_JAVA_PROPERTIES environment variable."
I'm confused as to where to populate the "QIBM_RPG_JAVA_PROPERTIES
environment variable".
