Status: Verified
FACT(s) (Environment):
UNIX
Progress 9.x
SYMPTOM(s):
This installation requires a JDK to be installed.
Please install the JDK and then re-install PROGRESS.
JDK with required version is installed
Log in as root and run "Java -version" does not return correct Java version message
CAUSE:
During installation, Progress looks for the version of Java that is installed on the system. The way it verifies Java version is to run "Java -version" command and compare the return value with expected Java version message.
If the root's PATH does not include the proper version's $JDKHOME/bin directory (where Java executable is), "Java -version" will fail and install will not continue.
FIX:
Add proper version's $JDKHOME/bin to the very beginning of root's PATH environment variable by typing the following:
JDKHOME=<Java's install directory>; export JDKHOME
and
PATH=$JDKHOME/bin:$PATH; export PATH
