Re: IBM i and Java Support - Steve Will

Exactly..

All I did was remove any trace of java from my PC..including cleaning 
the registry and all the relevant env vars..

Then placed the new java in a ....Java.... folder...and pointed the path 
and JAVA_HOME vars to it.

Then everything worked..even my old version of ACS.
