How will JobScheduler determine the location of the JVM - MS Windows only?

This text is for MS Windows only.

The 64 bit JobScheduler needs a 64 bit JVM and the 32 bit JobScheduler need a 32 bit JVM (jvm.dll) to run.

To determine where the location of this file is, JobScheduler get the active java version from the Windows registry:

 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment\CurrentVersion

This version contains the key RuntimeLib which will determine the location of the JVM used by JobScheduler (e.g. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment\1.7\RuntimeLib).

You can use a different JVM specifying the option vm in section java in the configuration file ./config/sos.ini.

Example:

 ...
 [java]
 vm                     = C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\client\jvm.dll
