Connecting to Command Line Interface

Post by Vishal1982 »

Hi All,
I am using client tool Command Line Interfact (IStool),whenever i am trying to open it , i am getting following Warning

---------------------------
Istool
---------------------------
A Java Runtime Environment (JRE) or Java Development Kit (JDK)
must be available in order to run Istool. No Java virtual machine
was found after searching the following locations:
$USER_INSTALL_DIR$/ASBNode/apps/jre/bin/java in your current PATH
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------


I have installed proper JDK and set the path in environment variable also ,but still it's not working.

Please let me know the problem

Thanks

How did you 'set the path'? Sounds like you didn't get that bit right.

Hi,

I set the path in system environment variable not in Datastage environment variable.

I meant for you to post exactly what you set, the variable name and value you set it to.

Hi,
I set the the following values in PATH system environment variable.

C:\IBM\InformationServer\ASBNode\apps\jre\bin\classic;C:\IBM\InformationServer\ASBNode\lib\cpp;C:\IBM\InformationServer\ASBNode\apps\proxy\cpp\vc60\MT_dll\bin;

Try setting the following environment variables (please note these are UNIX examples - you'd have to do the equivalent for Windows):

DATASTAGE_JRE - /opt/IBM/InformationServer/ASBNode/apps
DATASTAGE_JVM - jre/bin/j9vm

Note that the JVM variable is a relative path - it is assumed to be under the JRE directory (ie: the actual path in this case for JVM was /opt/IBM/InformationServer/ASBNode/apps/jre/bin/j9vm)

I'm not certain this is your problem - but I've had to set these before to get some of the Java stuff to work.
