JBoss needs server version of java. How do I configure java

JBoss needs server version of java. How do I configure java for server ?

I copied \bin\client to \bin\server in the java install directory and that works.

Should I have to do this ?

Thanks

As far as i remember, the server version is not mandatory. Which version of AS do you use? And which version of Java and which vendor of Java? What exact error message do you see and how do you start the server?

Based on the path separator, I am going to assume you are using Windows. There is already code in run.bat* that check to see if the server JVM is available and automatically adds the -server option to the java command line.

* - look for 'findstr'. In 5.0.1, it is lines 49-52

Without the \bin\server folder (you are correct I'm on Windows), if I run
run.bat it fails with cannot find JAVA_HOME yet it points to the following in the error :

C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\client (Sun Java)

Again if I dup \bin\client to \bin\server, then run.bat will run properly ?

Strange ?

Thanks again for any help.

Based on the directory, you should

set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jre6

And some advice. First, this is a JRE and not a JDK. I suggest you install a JDK and set JAVA_HOME to it's installation directory. Second, do not install the JDK in Program Files - spaces in path names tend to confuse certain Java libraries. I have mine at c:\apps\java\jdk1.6.0_13.
