Check your version of Java

For SMART you need to have the latest java in order for it to run.

Go to the Start Menu -> Run and in the run box type "cmd /k java -version" without the quotes. A command window should pop up, the top line will say something like "java version "…"" and the "…" is a number. If that number does not say "1.6.0_03" then you do not have the latest version of java. You need to go to http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp and click the download button for the top one. Then click accept on the next page and then click "Windows Offline Installation, MultiLanguage", download that and install and you should be set.

If, when you type in the command, get a java not recognize error then you don't have java installed and you need to go to the site so you can download it.

Interesting, when I try the "cmd /k java -version" I get "Java is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.", yet when I verify the installation at http://java.com/en/download/installed.jsp it says I have the latest version.

Any ideas?

Edit: My java is working fine, so is SMART it just bothers me that my CMD says Java is unrecognized…

Don't know what that is supposed to mean, I mean, Java is working fine and everything shouldn't it show up in CMD?

Brought to my mind that there hasn't been a Java update for a long time?

@Hugo: damn nice job with the KYAB sig
