Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g: Identity & Access Management

In process of installing Oracle 11g Identity Manager. It leverages the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI).

Downloaded Package: ofm_iam_generic_11.1.1.3.0_disk1_1of1.zip

After extracting the zip file, when I execute setup.exe from the Disk1 folder, kept getting a prompt asking for the JDK/JRE location after which it would just shut down with no indication of reason for failure.

I did have JAVA_HOME, ORACLE_HOME, PATH environment variables updated - so wasn't sure what the reason was.


Anyway - found out that this is just a installer bug. It should work if you command prompt in to the Disk1 folder and execute this statement instead of launching setup directly.

setup -jreLoc c:\java\JDK
