Installing and Verifying the JDK Version

Starting with Oracle WebLogic Server 10.3.6.0, the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne HTML Server only supports the Oracle JDK 7+.

Note: JRockit and HotSpot are merged into a single JVM starting with Oracle JDK 7. There is not a version called JRockit 7. The WebLogic Server does not ship with JDK 7. You can download Oracle JDK 7 from the following link:http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html

(A plus sign '+' in the version number indicates that this and its subsequent versions are supported)

Installing the 64-bit Sun JDK for the Solaris operating system on SPARC is a two-step process. These steps can be performed in either order, but you must install both sets of bundles for a given platform.

On SPARC processors: Install solaris-sparc (32-bit) with solaris-sparcv9 (64-bit)

Install the 32-bit JDK.
Install the supplemental files for 64-bit support.

To verify you version of an installed JDK, on UNIX systems other than Solaris and HP-UX, use this command from the command prompt:

>java -version

To verify you version of an installed JDK on Solaris and HP-UX, use this command from the command prompt:

>java -d64 -version

The system returns results as shown in the example:

For Oracle JDK 7+:

[oracle]$ ./java -version
java version ".0_11"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build .0_11-b21)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.6-b04, mixed mode)

Caution: In order for the JDK 7 to function properly with the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne HTML Server, after you have installed WebLogic Server, you must manually copy JDK specific .jar files. Refer to the section of this chapter entitled: Post Installation and Configuration.
