Re: You Got To Love Troubleshooting RPG calls To Java using EXTPROC(*JAVA)

Is it possible that your Java installation is hosed? I have never encountered the error that you describe, but it kinda sounds like it.

I didn't have to do anything differently at 7.1. I used the same environment variables that you mention (JAVA_HOME, CLASSPATH, and QIBM_RPG_JAVA_PROPERTIES) the only caveat being that I had to make sure JAVA_HOME pointed to a JVM that existed on 7.1 (since some of the older ones I had on my V5R4 box didn't exist in 7.1) But, since you appear to be pointing at jdk60, I guess that isn't a problem for you?

Let us know what you find out.

Why is Java trying to open file "jars.cfg" in directory "/QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/JavaVM/jdk60/32bit/lib/"? I can see it's not there! It's really in directory "/QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/JavaVM/jdk60/32bit/jre/lib/".

Same problem with the other files. They are located in other directories. Why is Java searching in "/QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/JavaVM/jdk60/32bit/lib/"
