[osflash] "Enter your path to your Java installation"

[Antony Jones]

I don't know what Red5 looks for, but generally your java installation
directory is:

 

C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0\

 

I.e. not the /bin suffix. Java programs need the contents of /lib and
suchlike, so the base directory is what they look for, everything else
is assumed.

 

If you're still stuck after trying that, install a JDK, i.e. jdk1.6.0 -
JREs are just the runtime stuff. If you need to compile anything, you'll
want the JDK.

I CANNOT get past this part when trying to install Red5. I know I'm
doing everything correct. 

There is a java.exe program in: C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0\bin

Yet i still get the message:

"The path you selected is invalid. Please make sure a java.exe exists
inside the "bin" directory and the version is 1.5 or 1.6"

I don't understand the problem. I have 1.6, there is a java.exe inside
the bin, yet I keep getting this error. I am on a Windows Vista. Could
that be the problem?? If not, then what is?
