(Answer) (Category) FAQ-O-Matic : (Category) Linux- and Solaris-specific : (Category) Installation :
I'm trying to install the JBuilder Personal Documentation on LInux but it fails with this error, followed by a stack trace: "Error: Unrecognized JVM specific option `-Xmx50331648'. Error: Unrecognized JVM specific option `-Xms16777216'. Invocation of this Java Application has caused an InvocationTargetException. This application will now exit. (LAX)"
There is a JVM on your search path which the installer is trying to use, but that JVM does not recognize the Sun-specific heap parameters the installer is giving it.

You can either:

  1) Remove the other jvm from your search path ("which java" should identify it, "whereis java" should list all of them)
2) Launch the installer like this:
./doc_install LAX_VM /path/to/jbuilder6/jdk1.3.1/bin/java

The "LAX_VM java" parameters tells the installer to use the specified java command instead of the first one it detects on the search path.
