The iPlanet Integration tool integrates with Forte for Java Internet Edition Version 2.0.

Before You Begin

When you launch Forte for Java Internet Edition Version 2.0 using the runidew.exe on NT, or runide.sh on Solaris, Forte may use a non-JDK 1.3. If it locates JDK 1.2 it stops the examination and initiates the launch. However, in order for Forte and the iPlanet Integration Tool to function properly you must use JDK 1.3.

If Forte was launched with JDK 1.2 you will encounter an error message stating that "the JPDA debugging libraries are not installed." This indicates that Forte is using JDK 1.2.

To eliminate this launch problem on NT:

  1. Locate the ide.cfg file located in <Forte_install_directory>/bin/.
  2. Edit the file to add the following line:

    -jdkhome <jdk root>
