Denis Golovin commented on JBDS-1150:
-------------------------------------
It happens because of the issue in JREPathPanel. It shows path to java used to run
installer as default, but it should execute just "java" to initialize default
path because it is what eclipse uses if there is no -vm option.
it means if you installer for win32 x86 started like
C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6 -jar installer-win32.jar
and it installs everything without errors with default java vm selected on step 4
JBDS might not start if default java is from C:\Program Files\Java\jre6
There is another issue in installer. It doesn't check that right java version x86 or
x86_64 is used to run installer. It is critical for windows because installer for win32
contains only 32 bit version for dll's to create shortcuts and modify registry keys.
Installer chooses 64-bit VM as the default VM even with 32-bit
distribution

Key: JBDS-1150
URL:
https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBDS-1150
Project: Developer Studio (JBoss Developer Studio)
Issue Type: Bug
Components: installer
Affects Versions: 3.0.0.CR2
Environment: Windows 7 x64 Ultimate Edition
Reporter: Trustin Lee
Fix For: 3.0.1.GA, 3.1.0.beta1
At step 4 of 11, the default Java VM path points to C:\Program Files\Java\jre6. However,
it is a 64-bit VM which does not work with the 32-bit distribution. If the default system
JVM is 64-bit, the installer should ask user to specify the correct VM path or try to
guess more paths (e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6). Otherwise, JBDS will fail on
startup even if the installation succeeds.
