Note –

If you are using JDK 1.6.0_12 or later with Java CAPS, you might run into issues with the wizards and editors used to develop applications. In addition, the installation fails on Windows when using JDK 1.6.0_13 or 1.6.0_14. The Java CAPS Installer does not support JDK release 1.6.0_04 in the 64–bit version on the Solaris SPARC or AMD 64–bit environments. The installer also does not support JDK 1.6.0 or later on AIX 5.3.
