This then stops the Java code in Forms 10g (specifically, the FRMALL.JAR server-side package, I believe) from thinking that the Java client is an older version of JInitiator, which is no longer supported - hence the confusing message. Hello there,I am creating an XP SP2 build in BDD 2007 and one of the applications I need in the base build is Oracle JInitiator 1.3.1.28.I have extracted the EXE I had and am running the SETUP.EXE file with the -s switch for a silent install.So the command line is just: setup.exe -sWhat I am want.

Updating your Java to the latest version can cause problems while using Oracle Applications. More precisely the following error is encountered when trying to run an Oracle App:

* Oracle JInitiator version too low please install version 1.1.8.2 or higher

In order to fix this issue you will have to add a new environment variable, that has the following details:

Variable name: JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS
Variable value: -Djava.vendor='Sun Microsystems Inc.'

  Thanks for this very useful input. Just a note here that if you have any JAVA versions installed, removing them first will also help in certain situations.
