Error Installing on Localized Versions of Windows Vista
 
________________________________________________________________________

Applicable Environment
________________________________________________________________________
  • Topic: SDP installation
  • SDP: 6.4.0, 6.4.1
  • Host: Windows Vista
________________________________________________________________________

Recommendation
________________________________________________________________________

When trying to install a localized version of Windows Vista the following error message appears:
"An unhandled error occurred--specify system property "-is.debug" for more
information"

The workaround includes extracting java from the native installer launcher, then running the installer with the special java parameter. Also, it's important for Windows Vista to have the UAC disabled.
Here is the workaround:

1) UAC must be disabled (if it is enabled, it will cause installation to fail)
2) <installer>.exe -is:extract
3) windows-sun-1.5.0.exe
4) bin\java -Duser.language=en -cp qnx_win32_setup.jar run

Note: Fixed in: 6.5.0
