6.3 JVM Errors

The CASD Adapter requires version 1.6 of the JVM. If multiple versions of the JVM are installed on the system, it is possible that an older version of the JVM is being executed whenever the Adapter starts.

On UNIX systems, the JAVA_HOME environment variable must be set to the directory where Java 1.6 is installed in the shell where the adapter is started. To properly start the adapter on a UNIX platform, perform the following:

  • Set the JAVA_HOME environment variable to the Java 1.6 installation directory.

  • Navigate to the adapters/bin sub-directory in the Adapter installation directory.

  • Execute the ./service.sh start command.

On Windows systems, perform the following to insure that Java 1.6 is used when starting the adapter.

  • Navigate to the adapters/bin sub-directory in the Adapter installation directory.

  • Run the iWaveAdaptersw.exe executable.

  • Click on the Java tab.

  • Make sure that the Use Default check box is not checked.

  • In the Java Virtual system box, specify the path to the jvm.dll file in the Java 1.6 installation directory.

  • Click OK.
