Can't install serviio-1.5-win-setup.exe - Java error EXE4J

Hello,

I've had the 1.4.1.2 version installed for quite a while, it worked fine.

After a Java update, it stopped working and gave me this error message at windows start-up:
No JVM could be found on your system. Please define EXE4J_JAVA_HOME to point to an installed 64 bit JDK or JRE from www.java.com.

I get the same message when I try to install the new version of Serviio. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling Java, as well as this solution: http://wincrunch.com/exe4j-java-home-no ... ur-system/

Nothing seems to work.

Any ideas?

Serviio 1.5 does not need the system Java installed anymore. The fact it still shows you this message is either:
- old version of the (console?) .exe file in the installation folder
- missing java in the new 'jre' folder inside the installation location

Try to completely remove Serviio, restart the PC and then install 1.5 again.

Hello,

Yes, I still had the old version in the installation folder.

Works fine now, thank you.

I am also having this problem.

Had OSX Mavericks with Serviio 1.4.1.2 and everything was working fine.

I updated to OSX Yosemite and then installed Serviio 1.5.

Now every time I try to start Serviio I get an error, "To open "Serviio Console.app" you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime."

I completely uninstalled Serviio, rebooted the machine, and then reinstalled Serviio 1.5 but I am still having the same problem.

Also, when I was on Mavericks with Serviio 1.4.1.2 I had two Serviio items in my applications folder (Serviio.app and Serviio Console.app). But when I install Serviio 1.5 I only have Serviio Console.app in my applications folder. Is this correct?

Thanks,
Jeff

Yes, the installation locations for OSX have changed. See the FAQs, Release notes, etc.

Here is a tip to make the console work: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=18188

Thank you. Moving the console app to another location and then moving it back to the applications folder fixed the problem. :D
