How can I resolve "enter full pathname to Java" when first starting Sql Developer?

experts,

     I am automating the Oracle installation. I want to resolve a "enter full pathname to Java" message that appears when SQL Developer is first started. How can I resolve this - maybe with a batch file giving a path to java? Not sure how to go about resolving this.

Thanks, Missymadi

This is simple
don't worry about it
Just install latest version of JDK on your machine, download it from the site
and on first run of sql developer set pass of java.exe in the dialog box. this will run then
and other times you will have no problem again


You have to install SQLDeveloper with JVM in the installation kit.
Possibly the installer will check the OS of existance of appropriate
JVM and will decide automatically what to do.

SQLDeveloper kits are two kinds - with or without JVM.

I used Oracle Standard Edition to install the Oracle Software. I am also doing this through an rec.rsp answer file. How would I include this step in my automation process?
what do you mean?explain more.
just you need to install JDK and run Oracle SQL Developer again
you can download SQLDeveloper version which has JDK inside the setup iteself.
SQLDeveloper could be downloaded in two versions:
1. Without JVM
2. With  JVM

I always install the second one (I need it for my classes at the University).
I expect that the version with JVM will solve your problem.
