I need help with this problem
I installed the 32bit jre1.8.0_60
When I installed the IDE i got this error message:
This is what is posted on the launchanywhere website:
As a result of Issue# IOJ-1737900, the Without VM installer fails to launch with Java 8 Update 60 on Windows. However, this issue does not affect With VM installers.When this issue occurs, the user receives this error in the screenshot: |
Cause |
The installer is using the Java location specified in the PATH environment variable, specifically:C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapathThen, the installer is appending \bin\java.exe to that directory path. But: C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath\bin\java.exedoes not exist. Hence, the installer fails to launch and instead displays this error in the screenshot: The root cause is the File version notation of java executable (java.exe) from Java 8 Update 60 has changed. For instance, the File version of java.exe for earlier versions of java 8 such as Java 8 Update 45 is the following: 8.0.45.15Similarly, the File version of java.exe for Java 8 Update 51 is the following: 8.0.51.16This has changed starting from Java 8 Update 60. The File version of java.exe for Java 8 Update 60 is the following: 8.0.600.27Notice the third number is a 3 digit number (600) in case of Java 8 Update 60 whereas the same is a 2 digit number for earlier Java 8 updates.The InstallAnywhere launcher code uses the java file version in order to determine and pick up a valid JVM path for the installer to use. The above change in the java file version is causing the launcher to fail and not use the valid JVM path. |

We have never tested the installer on Windows 10.
However, there are internal users leveraging Windows 10.
You may want to try installing from the .7z file per the instructions here: How to Import a New SDK into an Existing WICED Smart IDE

Thanks very kindly for the quick reply.
I have never previously installed a Broadcom IDE, so have nothing to import into.
Is there something else I can try.
Joe
It looks like the work around suggested by the launchanywhere folks is a guide on how things might work on your side.
