[GeoNetwork-devel] GeoNetwork 2.6.0 on Windows 7 and Java 6

GeoNetwork GeoNetwork Developer

Hello,

I am having a problem installing GeoNetwork on my Windows 7 PC with Java 6. I’ve tried both the .exe windows installer and the .jar and get the same results: the installation completes without error but I cannot start the server. I’m using the default Jetty and McKoiDB. Perhaps GeoNetwork cannot yet run on Java 6?

Thanks, Bob

Hi Bob

Can you provide more information? The log files in jetty/logs folder should have more information about the problem.

I normally work with Java 1.6, so that should not be the problem.

Jose García

Hello Jose,

Thanks for the email. There is nothing in the jetty/logs folder other than the ‘archive’ folder.

Not sure if this helps, but when trying to manually start the GN with the start-geonetwork.bat I see the following:

Hi Steve,

I don’t believe so as I’m able to install software there and create a file with a text editor.

Hi Bob,

Looking at the output of start-geonetwork.bat its saying:

'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file.

So perhaps its not finding 'java'. You may need to add the directory where
the java binary is to your windows PATH.

HTH
