Jeff,

First, I want to apologize that you’re experiencing this problem and thank
you for posting so much information in the first post that it will allow me to
immediately diagnose the problem and provide a workaround. You’ve obviously
done support at some level in your past or present life. 🙂

The problem you’re experiencing is caused by an unfortunate characteristic
of Install Anywhere Enterprise, which we use to create all of our installers.
Basically what it does is sort your PATH (lexicographically)
then begin looking for a JVM it can run with. Naturally, sorting the path
is stupid, but we’ve verified that this is precisely what they do.

After sorting your path, Install Anywhere determined it should run with gcj,
rather than your 1.4.2 JDK. GCJ can’t run the installer properly, thus
causing the problem. To work around this issue you can launch a shell
and cut the path down so that only your <jdk>/bin directory is on it. When
the installer is run with this new shell, it will have no choice but to use the
JDK you’d like for it to.

For reference, here are a couple of threads where a user went through the same thing:
https://www.genuitec.com/forums/topic/help-needed-cannot-install-trial-version-closed/&highlight=zerog
https://www.genuitec.com/forums/topic/can-t-install-closed/&highlight=zerog

LOL!!! Yes, been there, done that.

I redid the path to just my jvm and it was still using the path that is created from my /etc/source file.

So I :
PATH=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_01 ; export PATH
mv /usr/bin/java /home

ran the install and it worked.

Thank you again for your help,
Jeff

LOL!!! Yes, been there, done that.

I figured. The only folks that seem to be able to nail all the required information
on the first go is someone that has “lived the life”. 🙂

ran the install and it worked.
Thank you again for your help

Glad to help and that you’re up and running now. Please let us know if you
need anything else.

Now, if you’ll just run around to the thousands of Dell employees and let them
know we exist… 😉
