[Java] Computer doesn't recognize "java" as a command...?

[LilRyan]

Hey guys. I was trying to make a server, but whenever I click run.bat on my source, it says that "java is not recognized as an internal or external command."... I'm on vista. Please help :(.

Ty, Ryan

right click on run.bat, edit, and post everything it says

since you are on vista it probably says program files only, change it program files (x86)

Wrong, he hasnt set his environmental variables, control panel - java - java (the tab) view, set them from there.

Emily i posted this (I'm teamveiwing this guy).

And it doesn't recognize java as a command at all... It's weird... I'll try settin' the variables though, if you think thats it.

[Edit] its weird tho... he said his compiler worked... o_O

Could be either one but more than likely its environmental variables

right click your my computer icon on your desktop > properties > advance system settings > enviorment variables

in your user variables click new

Name - CLASSPATH
Value - C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_11\bin;%CLASSPATH%;%;

Change the jdk1.6.0_11 to whichever java update you have.

Click new again

Name - PATH
Value - %CommonProgramFiles%\Microsoft Shared\Windows Live;C:\Sun\SDK\bin;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_11\bin

Once again change the jdk1.6.0_11 to whichevery java update you have.

I think Vista's different but someone with a sense of living can figure it all out from what you have said.

type java in command prompt thats the guaranteed way to see if he has it or not

If his compiler does work then his run should work. Test his compiler. Cause both should work if directed to the same java. Or he is lieing or a noob who can't tell the difference.

or in his run.bat he didnt have it set to his jdk version.

Follow the tutorial used above, but just find the path for javac, its in the java folder of my computer.

Lul. He meant the code in it. But yea this is making it to hard just follow the tut above like emily said.

[Noob Koer]

Go to Start>> Computer>> C:// (Or Your Main Disk) >> Program Files>> Java >> jdk1.6.0_21 And put that in on the other versions ^^

replace XX with your java version, probably 20 or 21
