Not a valid Win32 application error when starting javahost

Hi,
I am getting the error below. I have searched this forum and the web and found some mentions of it here and there, but no solutions (by the way I am not using MS IIS).
OBI EE is installed on Windows Server 2003 Standard x64 Edition with Service Pack 2. Everything else (BI Server, presentation services and OC4J instance) is working fine.
Any help on how to solve this would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Luis

Just found the solution for it. I had to "install" a 32 bit JRE and use it to run the java host.
In fact I didn't install the JRE, I just copied its full folder structure from a 32 bit machine to the 64 bit machine and pointed JavaHome in the instanceconfig.xml to there.
All is working well and everybody is happy now, however I am still confused... as I said, the OC4J is running fine with a 64 bit JRE, why the java host needs a 32 bit one? Do you think something went wrong in the installation or that is how things are?

  • "not a valid Win32 application" message when trying to install iTunes 7.0

    I have downloaded the new iTunes 7.0 setup file. When I click on the icon on my desktop, I get the message, " C:____\iTunesSetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application".
    This problem doesn't seem to be specifically addressed in the troubleshooting suggestions on this website. Does any one have any suggestions on what I can do to resolve this problem? I've tried uninstalling older versions of iTunes and Quicktime, and re-downloaded new software package, but problem continues.

    After using the Windows Installer clean up tool and removing the iTunes 7.0.7.16 install file I was able to update to 7.0.2

  • Sqlplus.exe is not a valid win32 application error

    Hi All,
    I have installed oracle 10gr2 on windows xp.
    if i type sqlplus in command prompt i get this error
    "C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\BIN\sqlplus.exe is not a valid win32 application".
    i went to the path where sqlplus is present i observed that sqlplus.exe file was 0KB.
    how can i resolve this problem. i want to upgrade oracle 9i to 10g so i need sqlplus of 10g to work properly.
    please anyone help me out to solve this problem.
    Regards,
    Veeresh S

    You'd have to find out how and why that file became 0KB in size.
    If one file is 0KB in size, what assurance do you have that other files aren't
    also corrupted ?
    It could have been a virus-scanner wrongly attempting to quarantine the file,
    it could have been a backup-restore session that copied the file back as 0KB,
    it could have been some command that you executed in attempting the upgrade.

  • *.exe is not a valid win32 application error message

    When I download updates I cannot install them.  I get the error message that they are not valid Win32 applications, which I know is not correct.  This is apparently a common problem with Windows 7, and nobody has come up with a solution in the
    forums.
    Any ideas?

    OK.  I think I figured it out.  Neither the forums nor MS were of any help whatsoever.  In my case, my recollection was that the problem started at about the same time I had an infection, and installed antivirus SW (Ad Aware), which fixed
    the problem.  Today, I unistalled Ad Aware, and voila! the *.exe files download and run as they had before the problem arose.

  • Error when installing VMM - %1 is not a valid Win32 application

    Hi all
    I'm attemping an install of SCVMM and despite installing all prerequisites I'm faced with the following when I launch the installer/disc and click 'Install':
    "Error starting the Virtual Machine Manager Setup Wizard. %1 is not a valid Win32 application"
    this error is the proceeded with another:
    "Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable was not successfully installed. The selected Virtual Machine Manager feature cannot be installed without this prerequisite. Retry setup or manually install Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable
    from Microsoft Download Center."
    The latter package is already installed and I have re-downloaded and re-installed as well to no avail. All .Net packages are installed too.
    I'm running a Windows Server 2012 R2 x64 virtual machine in a HyperV host (HyperV Server 2012) and have navigated the disc and launched the "SetupVMM.exe" located in the amd64 directory as I realise the above Win32 error points to a x86 application
    - still no joy, the same errors!
    I have tried the installer in a VMWare 2012 server with the same error and on a physical Windows 7 machine again same error so this makes me think I'm either missing something basic or have overlooked something seems the environment doesn't seem to make
    a difference (although obviously not attempted a x86 environment but SCVMM is listed as x86 or x64).
    This is for a lab test and personal experience before production so I realise running SCVMM within a virtual machine that is hosted on the same hypervisor isn't good practice - but it's a start :)
    Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
    Sam

    Are you installing directly from the ISO? If so, you can try with a new ISO in case this is broken. Also make sure your machine is joined to the domain and that you are executing the setup in the context of a local administrator.
    Eventually, try to copy the ISO to local disk and run setup from there.

  • Error 'RecoveryMgr.exe is not a valid Win32 application' when trying to restore in Win7

    I really hope someone can help as this is driving me mad!
    System details - G62 Notebook running Windows 7
    The notebook crashed after a Windows update and wouldn't boot up.  I made it into the recovery manager and back my files before restoring to factory settings. 
    Since getting back in I am unable to get my files back.  I have tried through the recovery manager but it does not allow me to see the files on the dvd.  I have also tried through backup and restore but no joy there either.  When I click on RecoverMgr.exe on the dvd I get error 'RecoveryMgr.exe is not a valid Win32 application' and it won't open.
    I hope someone has managed to solve this before as I would love my files back.  All suggestions greatly appreciated and thanks in advance.

    Thanks Mumbodog.  Unfortunately I have tried and the files won't copy.  Starting to think they are corrupt!  Have tried on a few different PC's but no luck.  Really annoyed   Any other suggestions?

  • When i try to install Firefox 4 on my 64 bit Windows 7 Ultimate, error that it is not a valid win32 application

    It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.
    Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
    See "Disable virus scanning in Firefox preferences - Windows"

    I downloaded Firefox 4.o exe. When I tried to open it I got an error message stating that it was not a valid Win32 application. I am using windows XP SP3. How do I get it to open?

    [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]] has steps that you can try. It sounds like you may have something that is hanging your browser on exit (probably an extension or a locked profile) and the steps on that page should help clear it up.

  • When trying to open documents, getting error as File is not a valid Win32 application

    Hi,
    I am trying to open a MPP by clicking on the name of the file. But I am getting the error as "path\filename.mpp is not a valid Wind32 application".
    I am able to save the document and open it in MPP, but clicking on the document name is giving this error "File is not a valid Win32 application".

    How to fix this?

    Hi Ed,
    I am sorry, but I could not understand that answer.
    I have put that answer in the below quotes:
    "You are never going to believe what I did. This is a nice ending to a very confusing situation. lol
    I uninstalled Project 2007 and rebooted my laptop and reinstalled Project 2007. No Difference at all. Same thing happened. I just couldn't stop thinking about how 2007 Microsoft Office Component kept showing up in default programs. This has bugged me for days.
    I went browsing in my program files. I typed in Microsoft Office Project. The only thing I found was WINPROJ. I decided to check it out. I checked it's properties, size, location, etc.. What did I have to lose at this point? I clicked on it and it went into
    my default programs as Microsoft Office Project 2007. This doesn't make any sense to me. But, don't try to fix anything else if it isn't broken, right? It's working and I am so relieved. I mean, YAAAAY!!! Another mystery solved...
    Thanks for hanging in there with me to help solve this mystery. You have been of great assistance to me. You made me think outside the box and it worked.

    Does it mean MPP Should be a 2007 version?
    Thanks

  • ITunes set up gives an error message saying not a "valid win32 application"

    I am using Windows 7 and trying to download iTunes, but when I try to open the iTunes set up it gives an error message saying that it is not a "valid win32 application". It does the same for downloading quicktime. I have no idea what this means or what to do about it.

    That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?
