Hi,
I installed the jre-7u2 into the wine under Ubuntu 11.10
But, when I try to run the java itself:
Code:
wine ${PATH_TO_JAVA/BIN}/java.exe
I get following error:
Code:
fixme:heap:HeapSetInformation (nil) 1 (nil) 0
Error occurred during initialization of VM
java/io/IOException: Bad pathname
Any hints? Help will be mostly appreciated, I need to run windows app, which
uses JVM.
Thanks.

However, if your program is pure Java, i.e. doesn't use Windows code run via JNI and so doesn't break the WORA[1] contract, why aren't you running it under a native Linux JVM? [1] WORA = "Write Once, Run Anywhere" which states that any program written in Java without using OS-specific code extensions will run correctly in any certified JVM on any supported operating system.

Thank you Martin, you were right. Now the java.exe is working properly and that might be the problem with my app. As I said - the application is not pure Java, it just uses JVM, it is not open-source, it is commercial application and it also uses some DLLs. So now my problem is with the application, that it cannot find the jre when starting(it is started by .exe file) - the jre is located in one subfolder but it still cannot be found :-\

[/quote] You're right, there is a config file, which states the relative path to the jre the app uses (it brings it's own version with it) - looks like Code: <launcherConfig> <jvmParams jvmPath="./jre" jars="./lib" userConfigPath="" jvmOptions="-Xmx512m;-XX:PermSize=64m;-XX:MaxPermSize=160m;-XX:+DisableExplicitGC;-Dsun.java2d.d3d=false" AutomaticMemoryManagement="true" /> </launcherConfig> So, could there be a problem with a relative path to JVM?> > If it can be configured, do so, by changing the config file or registry > with the appropriate editor.

Result of running the ls -l is here: http://pastebin.com/Bi68VAMN i.e. I think the JRE is there allright. It runs OK on windows. Maybe I can try to use the absolute path in the config file. But there is a question - what is the root folder for application run within wine? (is it / or my home folder? or it is c:\?) Jan
