Java on 64 Bit Server 2008

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance




Are you using Server 2008 64Bit version? If you are the 32Bit IE is defaulted to the shortcuts of IE. Try Start-Search- Type: Internet and there is a IE and an IE 64Bit version. Use the 64Bit version and Java works.

Anyone running Java on WS 2008?
Is anyone running Java (32 bit) on IE7 under Windows Server 2008?

I have done all the steps to try and trouble shoot this, but it does not
support applets on my machine. I have reset IE7, uninstalled, confirmed
uninstalled with Windows Install Cleanup, turned off AV and antispyware,
reinstalled, and when I go to a test applet page the JRE (v 6u6) shows
in the system tray, and a blank window pops up with a little Java icon
in the top left corner, but nothing happens on the IE7 web page that
should show a test applet running (one of the standard ones on the
Internet, not anything I wrote).

The kicker is, JRE runs fine with Firefox.

To me this looks like some sort of security issue. IE7 is configured to
run Java, I have even put the security and privacy settings at the
lowest. ActiveX etc. all turned on.

I am wondering if there is some issue that Java won't run on WS 2008 for
security reasons.

Crap, I thought that might have done it. Although I am not surprised
it didn't work. It's probably some dumb setting somewhere.

In that KB article, it mentions Sun Microsystems J2SE Runtime
Environment 5.0 Update 9. What about downgrading and giving that
version a try?

Just finished the test. No change, doesn't work with 5.0 update 9.

What is really driving me crazy is that the JRE appears int he the tray,
but instead of the applet starting to run, a SEPARATE windows appears.
It's blank, nothing in the right click context menu, it has the Java
"coffee cup" logo in the top left corner. The window closes when the JRE
is no longer needed (ie on another non-Java page). I think this is an
obvious clue, but I have disabled everything like popup blocker,
firewalls, AV, etc. I have not been able to get anyone from Sun to respond.

If anyone has ideas, please chip in! I have another WS2008 PC,
bare-bones install, and JRE works fine! I verified the MS updates are
the same on each machine, so it's not a missing update or extra update.
The two biggest differences so far is the non-working machine has
Office and Visual Studio 2008 installed, so I guess my next step is to
install them and see if one of them is causing the problem.

That is truly a stumper. You'd think that at least the 6.0 u6 version
would *fix* whatever's broken but apparently not. The only other thing
I can think of would be to remove any and all Java stuff, reboot, and
then go through the registry looking for any orphaned entries or
references to Sun Java and blow them out. That's the hard way but if
you're desperate, maybe try that. It's possible you could also do the
above but use CCleaner's registry cleaner tool. I'm not sure where the
installer puts the java.exe on Server 2008 but it's probably the same
as Vista. If you uninstall it, make sure there's not directories being
left behind that might contain config info as well. If I hear anything
I'll post it here for you.

So here's a funny one...I uninstalled all Java (again), and I checked
the add-ons in IE7. There is a Browser Helper Object, jp2ssv.dll, Java
Plug In 2 SSV Help, reported as "currently loaded". I did a file search
and that file does not exist on my machine!

I wonder how I can get rid of it? I know I can disable it but I am not
sure that is enough? I can delete ActiveX controls but not Browser
helper objects.

OK, killed it by searching the registry by filename (jp2ssv.dll) and

I'll reinstall Java 6u6 and test again, I don't expect anything will
change. I'll report back if it does.

Man this is frustrating...
