Configuring Java v1.6 for running the Visualizer on Microsoft Windows workstations

If you try to start the Visualizer and you see an error message indicating that the application has requested a version of JRE that is not locally installed, try changing the automatic download settings for Java. This error message is a known issue for Microsoft Windows workstations that have Java version 1.6 installed.

  1. From the Windows Control Panel, select one of the following options:
    • For IBM installations of Java, select IBM Control Panel for Java.
    • For Sun installations of Java, select Java.
  2. On the Advanced tab, expand the JRE Auto-Download setting. If you do not see this option and you have multiple versions of Java installed on this workstation, close the Java Control Panel and select the other entry.
  3. Make sure the JRE Auto-Download setting is set to either Always Auto-Download (recommended) or Prompt User. The Never Auto-Download setting prohibits opening the Visualizer and Configuration Console.
  4. Click Apply.
  5. Click OK.
  6. Close the Control Panel window.
