GOAL:
How to determine the installed Java version on IBM AIX.
GOAL:
How can I determine the installed Java version on IBM AIX?
GOAL:
What version of Java do I have installed on my IBM AIX machine?
GOAL:
How to check Java environment prior to a Progress installation on IBM AIX.
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 9.1D
AIX
FIX:
Since Progress 9.1D no longer provides a JDK or JRE for the IBM AIX platform (as we did with earlier 9.1x versions), the Java version and PTF levels need to be verified prior to installing Progress 9.1D. Before installing Progress 9.1D the following steps are recommended:
it is necessary to determine:
1) Check to see if a Java version is currently installed:
Look to see if a Java directory is present on the AIX machine, If not, install the appropriate JDK or JRE for the version of IBM AIX you're running (refer to Progress Solution P100134 , "What is the required JVM version for Progress 9.1E on IBM AIX ?" ). If a JDK or JRE exists on the machine, navigate to the the Java installation's BIN subdirectory. Within the BIN directory, run the following command:
./Java -version.
The display should appears similar to the following:
Java version "1.3.1"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1)
Classic VM (build 1.3.1, J2RE 1.3.1 IBM AIX build ca131-20030122a (JIT enabled: jitc))
2) Check to see which Java PTF level is currently installed. To do so, run the following command:
lslpp -L | grep Java13x (where "x" is the last number of your Java version)
The display should appears similar to the following:
Java131.rte.bin 1.3.1.13 A F Java Runtime Environment
Executables
Java131.rte.lib 1.3.1.13 A F Java Runtime Environment
Libraries
Progress 9.1D requires a minimum of Java 1.3.0 with a minimum PTF level of 9a prior to its installation on IBM AIX. In other words, the Progress installation script will look to see if this Java version and PFT are contained within the existing operating environment (i.e. PATH) before continuing with the installation process
