First of all, is java actually installed under C:\java6 ?

What does the following command show: DIR C:\java6\bin

Well the OBVIOUS thing to do is to check that 'PATH' variable after you set it to see where you mistake is.

One possibility is that the original PATH value does NOT end in a semicolon - which means you just added garbage to the end of it and destroyed whatever the last value was.

Shouldn't it be like

>SET PATH=%PATH%;%JAVA_HOME%\BIN;

>echo %PATH%

or

>c:\jdk6\bin\java -version

edit:

>c:\java6\bin\java -version

Exactly, provided java is actually installed under C:\jdk6, or C:\java6

That's why I was asking the OP to list their nominated location to verify that its the right location first before setting the JAVA_HOME and PATH

Hi,

When I saw the highlighted portion from the original post in the reply from @rp0428, I noticed the prepended PATH variable wasn't delimited by  % on either side.That is what prompted me to reply.

The jdk6 was in fact a typo and should read as java6 for OP's environment, judging from his settings).

> C:\java6\bin\java -version

Yes, your response has already covered it. Apologies for not paying attention to it.
