Unable to find a jre in the specified directory что делать

Aris Express not launching via Windows 10 Virtualbox

I have previously used Aris Express without issue, though I don’t recal the version. I finally stopped ignoring the the prompt to upgrade and have not been able to start Aris Express since then.

My VirtualBox is running on my Mac

My Mac version is Sierra 10.12

Express 2.4 1115144

I get the error ‘Unable to find a JRE in the specified directory. Please repair the settings in launcher.cfg and try again’

Can someone help with this? I’m more of a Mac that Windows user but can follow instructions and can find my way around Windows 10. I have already searched online for this issue, including the forums, but the mixture of instructions have not actually resolved the issue.

Comments

Did you read this article?

I commented on that thread at the bottom as it isn’t helping.

Before I can continue with that thread, I need to highlight that for my installation, the following is not true:

There is no launcher.cfg file in there.

This file is found in:

the error you mention happen for a low percentage of users. it was not reproducible on our side, though.

You can ignore this message about the user.cfg. this is a message that should not appear at all.

I would recommend just do deinstall Express from your virtual box.

Instead, install the webstart solution. Install a 32 bit JRE on your system (which means on your VirtualBox) and click onto that link (and this is the correct jnlp file):

Hello, on my Windows 10 via Virtual box, I download the linked file you posted and when I open it, nothing happens. This seems to create a file called ‘express’ which is a JNLP file. it’s 7kb in size. What’s meant to happen when I launch it? I removed Uninstalled Aris Express as you said and also deleted the programme files folder and nothing happens. When I click that file, it opens my ‘View Downloads’ dialogue box and I see that file in the downloads. I click ‘open’, there’s a momentary flash on the screen and then nothing.

If Java is installed correctly, it might be that JNLP files are not correctly associated with Java.

The files with extension «jnlp» must be assigned to the «javaws.exe» in our JRE.

I’ve no idea what any of that meant? Are you advising that I check that java on my Windows 10 (on virtual box) is correctly installed?

what does this mean: The files with extension «jnlp» must be assigned to the «javaws.exe» in our JRE

we deliver Express in two different ways:

1.) the windows installation (which installs a local application, as usual)
2.) as a Java webstart application (which is the jnlp file, actually, forcing the JRE do download Express)

Since the installation does not work with solution «1.)» on your vm box, you would need to use solution «2.)».

Yes, for this you need a JRE installed in your vm (whereas the windows installation comes with its own JRE).

Normally, the «jnlp» file extension is assigned to the file «javaws.exe», that is placed in » \bin».

If nothing happens, maybe the file type assignment to the «javaws.exe» does not exist on your vm. So, with context menu on the jnlp file, «open with. » assign to javaws.exe

OK, so I’ve gone to the java,com download and installed java for windows. Now what? Do I re-install Aris on my Windows 10 and try to run or is there something else?

What do you mean by JRE installed on your VM, do you mean on my Windows 10 on my virtual box? How do I install java on virtual box separately to Windows?

Any help? I’ve been unable to access my files for a while now. I regret upgrading as the previous version worked without any issue.

Can you explain how to install using the method below, as suggested by Frank?I have removed ARIS Express and have updated Java, now what?

» 2.) as a Java webstart application (which is the jnlp file, actually, forcing the JRE do download Express) «

In my W10 VirtualBox image I just installed ARIS Express the way Frank suggested:

Did that work for you?

Even after downloading It does nto give me an option to launch with java web start. I went through the full installation on their site. The java web start does not appear as an option anywhere. On the Mac this process is very simple (though it won’t open Aris Express) but on the Window 10, I don’t know where the app is.

Just so I’m clear, I can’t get past your step 2. I can’t assign it.

Java Web Start Launcher is the javaws.exe located in the installed JRE 32-bit.

If you don’t have that yet installed, or being not 100% sure, download it in your VBox:

May I recommend that you pin your last reply, as I would be surprised if no one else has had the difficulty of installing this. The last post fixed everything. Windows 10 is not so obvious when selecting an app. You have to open the explorer and find it that way. Thanks.

Thanks for your suggestion. I will see to integrate that procedure in our FAQ page.

Installation of Java JRE 1.6.0.43 fails if Aris Express 2.4 is present (Windows7)

I’m not an Aris user, but from the PC support department.

We discovered a serious problem if Aris Express 2.4 is present on a PC with Windows7 SP1:

The installation of Java JRE 1.6.0_43 fails with a DLL-Error when it try to deinstall a previous version of the JRE. It seems the installer is confused by the JRE 1.6.0_17 comming with ARIS 2.4

There a 50 PC affected, so it is a serious security problem.

Is there a solution for this problem?

Comments

with Express, windows version, the JRE is actually not «installed» in the way that it is the one and only JRE for the system. Actually, it ist just copied to the harddisc without any entries into the registry. In our launcher (.exe) for the programm, we use the java vm which is copied to the system.

So I do not see any problem regarding the express installation.

It might be the case, that some software checks about JREs on the harddisc, and, if found, uses it. I would recomment just to check why the JRE is in use at all.

Thank you for your answer and this information!

The problem is now solved:

1. delete the contains of «%programfiles%\ARIS Express\client\jre» (Aris wont run now)

2. copy the contains of «%programfiles%\Java\jre6» to «%programfiles%\ARIS Express\client\jre»

3. Check: Aris is running with JRE 1.6.0_41

4. Installation of JRE 1.6.0_43 runs now without error

5. again delete the contains of «%programfiles%\ARIS Express\client\jre»

6. copy the contains of «%programfiles%\Java\jre6» to «%programfiles%\ARIS Express\client\jre»

7. Aris is now running with JRE 1.6.0_43

Unfortunately we have found another problem: The command line options for silent installation used with Aris 2.3 does not work with Aris 2.4

good to hear that your problem is solved, but I’m still asking myself why the copied JRE should play any role. maybe the JRE itsself checks where other JREs are located on the machine. don’t know.

About the installation switches: as you might know, since the new windows executable does not use the webstart installation, we’ve got a new setup for this.

I will enter this into our requirements database to support command line options in the next version.

we have done some more research. Our intention is Aris Express 2.4 should use the installed version of JRE. Unfortunately it ignores the installed version and use always the integrated JRE 1.6.0_17.

If we delete the directory %programfiles%\ARIS Express\client\jre an error message comes up:

error while starting ARIS Express: «launcher.cfg»

after last update of ARIS Express to version 2.4c I cannot launch ARIS Express. Following error is displayed: «Unable to find a JRE in the specified directory. Please repair the settings in launcher.cfg and try again».

Java 8 Update 111 is present on my computer. Uninstalling and installing of setup.exe was not helpful. File «launcher.cfg» ist not existing on installing path of ARIS Express.

Can help me someone?

Comments

please uninstall and delete the installation folder completely before installing Express 2.4c,

How do I uninstall Aris Express and start all over with a fresh install? I have this installed on Windows 10 on a Mac (using Virtualbox). I’ve had the same error message and follow other instructions on the forum which has not worked and I’d like to start fresh.

I have recently changed my laptop. Installed ARIS Express, and when I started it, I received the following message instead.

Even thenI am getting that same error message.

Please guide me on what I should do to get ARIS Express running.

Please guide what I should do.

I was also checking the directory under ARIS Express\Client\jre in my older machine. That also does not have a launcher.cfg file, but ARIS Express runs there.

Matter resolved. Thank you.

I get the same error message and even if I delete the installation folder and reinstall I get the error message again. I am trying to run it on a Mac Pro computer with Parallells and Windows 10. Installing the Microsoft version of Aris Express.

i have already uninstalled and deleted all aris-folders before installing Express 2.4c. But its still not working. I have no idea how to fix it.

I hope someone can help pls.

you state that the message about a missing JRE is shown.

The system-wide installed JRE is not important, JRE (windows version) brings its own JRE.

It should be located in ARIS Express\client\jre, so there should be subfolders containing (bin and lib). Is that that case on your computer after installing?

Do you try to install on a remote directory?

enclosed you find the screenshots of the installation folder. It contains all subfolder.

What do you mean with installing on a remote directory? I have just a local installation.

Regarding the error message something has to be wrong with the launcher file.

Bonjour j’ai suivi toute la procédure que vous avez mis dans vos capture d’écran mais dans le dossier «lib» je n’ai pas «launcher» comment je pourrais faire?

The same here, today installed a clean Win 10, so for sure there are no registry problems etc.

actually, the launcher.cfg should not be needed. Your installation seems to be ok.

You can try to place a file named «launcher.cfg» in the folder » \client\config» with the following content:

have done as described but it doesnt help.

Hello, I’m afraid I have the same error message, clean first-time installation on Windows 10.

I have found a solution.

Execute the file C:\Program Files\ARIS Express\client\lib\express.jnlp

After executing the file, a new application exe file will be generated. Install it in your desktop and use it to run the program.

You can email me at jmonagas@ecoem.com.ve for further assistance

Hello Jose, I don’t seem to have a file called ‘express.jnlp in the location you’ve named. Where is this file? And by exexcute, do you mean ‘click to open’?

Thank You Jose Monagas!

Your advise is very useful.
the program has start working.

O meu estava com esse erro, fazendo isso resolveu, Obrigado!

Thank you, that helped. =)

Estava com o mesmo prolema após executar o processo do Jose Monagas deu tudo certo.

3 years, and this solution still works. Thank you Jose

Thank you Jose Monagas. As of 2019-09-04 the solution is working fine!

Where exactly do I find the newly generated file?

Thanks Jose, Your solution helped me to get Aris express running. Thank you for sharing.

The solution explained by Jose Monagas is working.

I tried your solution, and it worked.

Thank you very much.

Thanks a lot, Jose! It’s working now! 🙂

i don’t have: Execute the file C:\Program Files\ARIS Express\client\lib\express.jnlp

This path also leads to the target in october 2021 for version 2.4h. Great tip!

Thank You Jose Monages!

I did not try Frank’s solution as it doesn’t seem to work for anyone and I also tried to launch the Express file which also did not work. I’m still unable to use Aris Express since upgrading.

I started express and then expresslauncher and a new shortcut on the desktop (win10) was created automatic.

I faced the same problem recently, with almost the same setup: Win10 VM in Virtual Box on a Mac Sierra (10.12.4).

The current Java Version and Aris express have been downloaded and installed, but I didn’t get it running. I found out that in the System panal «Java» in security tab the option «Java in Browser» (or similiar in English) had to been enabled (disabled by default).

After that, execute

jawas «C:\Program Files\ARIS Express\client\lib\express.jnlp

in the command program. It’ll run afterwards (with a new Desktop icon).

I have found a solution.

Execute the file C:\Program Files\ARIS Express\client\lib\express.jnlp

After executing the file, a new application exe file will be generated. Install it in your desktop and use it to run the program.»

а после осуществил запуск ARIS Express от имени администратора и проблема устранилась

I have tried the above suggestions with no success. I am running Windows 10. I love Aris Express, but starting to think I’ll have to find a new tool. Can someone help with how to fix? Would be greatly appreciated as I don’t want to learn a new tool and have to migrate all my docs. Thanks.

The download links for ARIS Express are not working and neither is the first use activation process.

get file launcher.cfg by Frank Weyand (posted on 2016-10-28 ) to c:\Program Files\ARIS Express\client\ (only)

run ARIS Express.exe. 🙂

I have the same problems on a W10 pro, Update 1709 with aris 2.4d. The installation is new, I’ve never installed Aris before on this maschine.

Executing the ArisExpress.exe doesn’t work.

Copying the msvcr100.dll to c:\Program Files\ARIS Express\client doesn’t work.

Creating the launcher.cfg with the content posted by Frank Weyand doesn’t work.

Executing the file C:\Program Files\ARIS Express\client\lib\express.jnlp created a new Desktop icon, pointing to a location in the local java cache. This works, but it doesn’t execute the installed version, but the downloaded web version. This is not what I want. I want to execute the installed version.
