How to start Essbase Studio? 11.1.2

Question

Hi,
I am trying to start the Essbase studio client on a windows 64 bit system. However, when I invoke the startStudio.bat in C:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\EssbaseStudio\Console it shows me a pop-up with various configurations like JDK path etc with the error message "JVM terminated with exit code -1."
I am having JDK 1.6_25 on my system.
Can anyone please let me the problem here?
Thank you in advance.
Thank you,
Dhar

Hello,
I am getting the same error message when I installed the Essbase Studio Console. I just found your comment and have a quick question. Did you just download the 32-bit JDK and install it? Do you have to do any remapping for the console to use the 32-bit version? In looking at the 'setJavaRuntime.bat' file, it seems that it is always pointing to the jdk160_21 version that came by default when the console is installed, which is 64-bit.
set JAVA_HOME=%EPM_ORACLE_HOME%\..\jdk160_21
This is what I saw in the bat file:
@echo off
REM Setting Java HOME
if "%EPM_ORACLE_HOME%" == "" (
     echo " Environment variable EPM_ORACLE_HOME not defined "
     goto end
REM Get JRE or JDK
if exist "%EPM_ORACLE_HOME%\..\jdk160_21" (
     if not "%1" == "-client" (
          goto okFusionJDK
if not "%1" == "32" (
     if exist "%EPM_ORACLE_HOME%\common\JRE-64\Sun\1.5.0" goto okSetJRE64_150
     if exist "%EPM_ORACLE_HOME%\common\JDK-64\Sun\1.4.2" goto okSetJDK64_142
     if exist "%EPM_ORACLE_HOME%\common\JRE-64\Sun\1.4.2" goto okSetJRE64_142
if not "%1" == "64" (
if exist "%EPM_ORACLE_HOME%\common\JRE\Sun\1.6.0" goto okSetJRE160
     if exist "%EPM_ORACLE_HOME%\common\JRE\Sun\1.5.0" goto okSetJRE150
     if exist "%EPM_ORACLE_HOME%\common\JDK\Sun\1.4.2" goto okSetJDK142
     if exist "%EPM_ORACLE_HOME%\common\JRE\Sun\1.4.2" goto okSetJRE142
echo "JRE or JDK Not Found. Exiting"
goto end
:okFusionJDK
set JAVA_HOME=%EPM_ORACLE_HOME%\..\jdk160_21
goto end
Thank you,
