Hi all,

I have installed Netbeans 6.8 on my windows vista 64 bit ...loaded laptop, everything is fine while installing but the problem comes when i try to work on it...while clicking on NetBeans icon it simply prompts "Error:Client VM not supported "...i have installed jdk-1_5_0_15-windows-amd64,jre-1_5_0_15-windows-amd64 for my tomcat server which i have been using for my web services and UDDI registry with jUDDIv2.

whats the problem exactly i couldnot able to find out... long back i worked with Net Beans 6.0 on this laptop,then there was absolutely no problem that time...due to some reasons i uninstalled it and now trying with 6.8,even with 6.7.1 also the same response "Error:Client VM not supported " is coming...checked if any folders of earlier version are left by trying regidt.exe in command prompt also...nothing of that sort,totally clean.Then why this problem is coming again and again???

Help any one...

thank you in advance

You need to install a 32-bit JDK and use that. You currently have only 64-bit and that contains only the server JVM. The 32-bit one contains both 'client' and 'server'.

By the way, I use a naming scheme like this when installing both 64- (first one) and 32-bit (second one) JVMs:

c:\apps\java\jdk-1.6.0_20
c:\apps\java\jdk-1.6.0_20-x86
