Re: Universal Installer does not start on WinXP

Sir,

First, I don't want to start a debate here, especially not a hostile one If I asked the question again, it should means your answer didn't helped me, and I wasn't satisfied by it.

If you stick only to specifications, you should change your job.

Also, I didn't asked this question only you, so you're free to ignore my posts.

I ask this question, because I run before Oracle Universal Installer on WinXP, succesfully.

The setup exe is a Gava GUI application, so it should run on any PC which have a Java VM installed. I tried with MS Java VM, and didn't worked (and I fully agree with you MS software has a lot of incompatibilities with other software).

But also I installed SUN Java VM (which is also used by Oracle), and even with it the setup didn't start.

However, I tried to run some other Java GUI applications, which works just fine.

If anyone has an idea on how can I solve my problem, I'll appreciate it.

Regards,
Bogdan
