My Java Virtual Machine cannot be found?

I just installed SPSS (statistics software) for school.  I have an error at -36 and my Java Virtual Machine cannot be found.  What is the issue, and what are my options?

You may need to download re-install Java. Click Support in the upper right of this page - Downloads - then type the word "Java" in the search field and look to see if there is a recent one for Snow Leopard. For example I located this one which may work for your system:

    Installing the Java Virtual Machine
    The Java Virtual Machine is a program that is necessary for running Java programs such as PhotoSite AlbumBuilder. To install the Microsoft Java Virtual Machine, download and run the appropriate installer below. After you install it, restart your computer.
    Windows 98/NT/ME/XP/2000 (SP1/SP2) users:
    http://support.photosite.com/msjavx86.exe
    Windows 2000 (SP3) users:
    http://support.photosite.com/Q300845.exe
    Windows 2000 users (Service Pack 4):
    Microsoft provides no installer for Windows 2K + SP4. You must either revert to an earlier Service Pack or upgrade to Windows XP instead.
    * NOTE: You must be logged into an "Administrator" account to install the Virtual Machine.

  • "Unable to start the application - The Java Virtual Machine cannot be loade

    I have been trying to instal an old scanner using its CD, and during the process, at about configure files, the error message in title comes up.
    Is this why the HP scanner Director won't scan a document, saying the scanner is not connected properly?

    If it works on the one computer, see what JRE you have - if any by doing this: go to a command prompt(used to call it a DOS window) and key in:
    java -versionAlternatively, go to your add/remove programs menu and scan for a Java version.
    Whichever version is mentioned - go to
    the http://java.sun.com/products/archive/
    ... get that and put it on your other computer.

  • (Java Virtual Machine) Cannot Find Main Class.  Program will exit!

    I have seen this error message all over the place but no resolution. I am running Windows XP Pro. I am able to view sites with Javascript such as www.target.com and the dropdown menus work fine. However, when I am using my very very simple Javascript menus (from Project VII) The javascript works FINE on my home PC - but not on my work PC. My Java panel appears to be corrupted, when I try to open it, I just get a blank screen and it hangs. My Javascript is enable in all places.
    I'm going crazy! Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Java[u] is not JavaScript. Which product are you having trouble with? If it's JS, you need to ask the questions at a JS site, not here.
    To run a java program, change the cmd prompt to the directory that contains the Java .class files and issue this command:
    java -classpath . <name of the class without the extension>
    IMPORTANT: include the period and surrounding spaces.

  • Java Virtual Machine Tutorials

    Hey Everyone,
    Does anybody know where a good tutorial on the workings of the Java Virtual Machine can be found? I am particularly looking for information on how class loading takes place. Ideally I am looking for a tutorial that isn't to specifications orientated, something that is quite wordy and very descriptive.
    If anybody can point me in the right direction I will be greatly appreciative.
    Regards
    David

    Check this out, free online chapters of Bill Venners' Inside the Java Virtual Machine: http://www.artima.com/insidejvm/ed2/index.html Excellent book IMO.
    You might also find this useful, a comparison of three JVM books: http://www.javaworld.com/jw-03-1998/jw-03-bookreview.html The one thing to note is that this comparison is rather old, and may not be entirely applicable to all the books today. Don't forget to read through the official JVM specification too, available online.
    Tons of neat stuff about JVM internals can also be found at JavaWorld: http://www.javaworld.com/channel_content/jw-jvm-index.shtml

  • Installation fails with "Cannot launch the Java Virtual Machine"

    I'm trying to install OAS 10.1.3.1. on Windows XPbut after copying all the files the installer starts complaining that it cannot lauch the Java Virtual Machine. Eventually, the process gets to the configuration step where it succeeds with one configuration, then fails with the next, and then finally goes into an eternal loop.
    When launching the installer it claims that my environment successfully passes all test for memory size, etc.
    Is this a known problem? Is there any way I can get more info about the reason why the JVM could not get lauched? I searched for information in the logs without success. I also tried to play around with the PATH environment variable since I saw some installation note saying that includingthe jre/bin path here could help, but it did not help.
    Could anyone, please, give me a hint of how to complete the installation successfully?

    Thanks for the hint.
    I had a look in the INI-file of my BPEL installation and this is what it said about memory:
    JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=" -mx256m"
    Still, if I start the BPEL server it finally comes up after issuing a lot of complaints but as soon as I request a page I get this:
    500 Internal Server Error
    OracleJSP: oracle.jsp.provider.JspCompileException:

    Could not create the Java virtual machine.
    Error occurred during initialization of VM
    Could not reserve enough space for object heapThis is strange since at the time there is >1.4 GB of virtual memory and 0.9 GB of physical memory available.
    And according to the task manager:

    Physical memory total = 2096496

    Hi

  • Unrecognized option: -server  Could not create the Java virtual machine.

    Hi
    I'm running JBoss 4.0 with JDK 1.5.0_12 (or could use 1.2.1 or 1.4.2) but when I try run.bat I get the following error
    Unrecognized option: -server Could not create the Java virtual machine.
    IfI try removing -server I get a different message
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: org/jboss/Main (Unsupported major.minor version 48.0)
    Hope you can help. Really need to get this going ASAP
    Thanks

    Hi all,
    Thanks for responding.
    This is what I get when I did the following:
    $java -version
    java version "1.2.2"
    Solaris VM (build Solaris_JDK_1.2.2_06, native threads, sunwjit)
    $which java
    /usr/bin/java
    The java version was definitely not what I expected as I had installed the Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment 1.3.1 and no Java hotspot was found even though I had already installed it. Maybe it because I did not install them correctly.
    How do I get rid of the older version and replace it with a newer one?
    I noticed that in later versions of J2SE, Hotspot VM was said to have been incorporated in it. But there are no guides on how to get Hotspot up and running, it will be great if anyone of you can guide me on this or point me to a site that can help me.
    Please bear with me as I am still very new to this. Thanks!

  • "Could not create the Java virtual machine." when max-heap-size is 926Mb

    We received "Could not create the Java virtual machine." when the max-heap-size provided exceeded 926 Mb in XP PC. We found the below mentioned link which confirms that this is a bug
    http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6945136
    But the problem is that the issue does not get recreated in all the XP PCs. Increasing the max heap size to greater than 926 works fine in some XP PCs.
    Could there be any configuration related issues for this problem...

    If you can't find any difference in your java versions or overall runtime configurations, it's quite possible that the bug doesn't have the complete picture--it might be more subtle than the conditions described. Maybe it works with certain versions of certain lower level DLLs. Maybe it has some dependency on which services are running. Maybe the order in which certain components got installed put one version of something vs. another further ahead in a CLASSPATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc. variable.
    Or maybe it's as simple as you're not running the version of Java you think you are on all those boxes, as jschell suggests.
    Regardless of the reason why it happens to work on some configurations, you found that it fails on some, and that failure is in fact a known bug. So it shouldn't surprise you that it fails at least sometimes, and the fact that it works sometimes has been rendered irrelevant. Unless you're doing research into the specific cause of this issue.

  • Install of SAP HANA Studio Dev Ed v1.00.80 fails with "Could not create the Java Virtual Machine"

    Hello,
    Scope: JVM error during initial install of SAP HANA Studio Developer Edition v1.00.80, Win86/32bit
    Source: installation files pulled from HANA Studio tab at https://hanadeveditionsapicl.hana.ondemand.com/hanadevedition/, which is a link from the main HANA site of http://scn.sap.com/community/developer-center/hana.  zip folder: "sap_hana_win32_studio_rev80"
    Targeted O/S: Windows 7, 32-bit, local Java is SE 7, update 67.   Java environment has been confirmed via checks provided at http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
    Actions taken:
    Attempted to update the installation's eclipse.ini file by reducing the -Xmx value; see details below.
    Read thru postings such as http://scn.sap.com/thread/3390626 and the threads it recommended.
    Checked OSS (ie Note 1859686 - HANA Studio does not start)
    Description of installation error:
    Shortly after executing "hdbinst", it fails with the error "Could not create the Java Virtual Machine".  I've verified that there is nearly 3G of memory free.  What I did notice, as shown in the attached files, is that Eclipse is part of this installation and it's pre-loaded with the "eclipse.ini".  I firmly believe the solution could be to reduce parameter "-Xmx1024m" to "-Xmx512m" but it's a catch-22 because even after updating eclipse.ini (in installation folder C:\Program Files\SAP\hdbstudio\tmp_p2director2014.08.13_13.36.44\director), the install program requires that the "hdbstudio" folder to be empty upon restarting it.
    Since the installation is basically a package with a lot of .jar files, there is no eclipse.ini file available in the source install folder; otherwise, updating it there would be the easiest solution if that option were available. The file is only available in the targeted deployment folder above.
    If you have encountered this same error and were able to resolve it, I would be grateful to know of your solution.  Thanks very much.
    FYI: the HANA Client installed with no issues.

    FYI: the images below reflect the sequence of images produced during the installation.
    after clicking OK above, the screen below gets updated (see the "is not empty" msg).
    Below is the eclipse.ini file located in the deployed/target folder:
    Message was edited by: Jim Cleek
    FYI: Using information from the SAP HANA Database - Studio Installation and Update Guide, I tried to override the installation's use of its eclipse.ini file by passing my own modified version (with "-Xmx512m") of that file that was placed in a separate folder.  The cmd used via DOS window was "hdbsetup.exe -a studio --configfile=C:\Users\Admin\Downloads\eclipse.ini" and even though it successfully launched the SAP HANA Lifecycle Management gui, it failed on the first step with the same JVM create error as above because it appears to have used its own eclipse.ini file, which has "-Xmx1024m".

    Update: a message was opened with SAP but unfortunately they could not provide a resolution for this particular scenario.  They admitted that the eclipse.ini file cannot be updated since it is bundled as part of the installation package.  One point to make that I did not make before was that this was being attempted on an Oracle VirtualBox (4.3.10); the SAP HANA contact said he assumed that SAP has not tested this particular scenario, thus it could not be supported.
    Resolution: the end result was to abort trying to install SAP HANA Client and Studio on the Oracle VirtualBox but to install it locally on my own desktop, which runs on Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit with 8G of memory.  The SAP HANA files below were downloaded, extracted and installed successfully in the order shown.
    FYI: the Studio installation detected that a 64-bit version of Java was not installed so I installed that and then adjusted the User environmental variable JAVA_HOME to point to that new path, leaving the System variable still pointing to the pre-existing 32-bit Java path.

  • Java virtual machine and yahoo/pogo

    i am trying to play yahoo and pogo games, and it pops up that i need to download java virtual machine for it to load, i do, then it goes to MS website saying i need a more recent version of JVM to get to that screen. I got MSIE 6. i need to play these games. please help. help.

    I just experienced this issue and found a solution. What operating systems are you running. I am on Windows XP. I downloaded Java Virtual Machine (which can be found on this website) and it worked fine until I allowed my system to receive an update on the Microsoft Virtual Machine. This is a brand new computer and had the windows update alerts. I had to restore my system to the day before I allowed update and everything is working again. I suggest downloading Java virtual Machine. No one else on here was helping and Gateway had no clue how to help me. After three weeks I figured this out by myself.....I hope this fix works for you!

  • Java Virtual Machine Launcher

    Hello, I've been programming in java a little while now, but lately I've been getting the error that the Java Virtual Machine Launcher cannot start. I only get this when I log into Windows XP, I can compile and run programs and applets (on web and through applet viewer no problem).
    I was under the impression that the jvm didn't start until the user started it, say by launching a java program with the "java HelloWorld" command. Any ideas what is happening on my computer? thanks

    Other places that apps can start on login:
    Registry: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
    or you could have something running as a service... Do you have any ideas of what executable the error is specifically refering to?
    Re-installing the JVM is a good start.
