Specifying the Java Software Environment


This section describes the two alternative Java software environments supported for Siebel applications.

Specifying Microsoft Java Virtual Machine (JVM)

If Microsoft JVM is installed and no other Java environment is installed, then it is already configured as the default Java environment, and you do not need to do anything else.

However, if you also have Sun JRE installed, you may need to modify security settings to specify Microsoft JVM as the default. For details, see Manual Security Settings for High Interactivity.

To use Sun JRE, you must specify it as the default, as described below.

Specifying Sun Java Runtime Environment (JRE)

To enable Siebel high interactivity applications to use Sun Java Runtime Environment (JRE), you must specify Sun JRE as the default Java environment in the browser. Another JVM or JRE product may also be installed, but Sun JRE should be enabled as the default.

To specify settings for Sun JRE

  1. In Internet Explorer, choose Tools > Internet Options.
  2. Click the Advanced tab.
  3. In Settings, under Java (Sun), check Enable Java xxxx (where xxxx represents the version number for Sun JRE).
  4. Click OK.
