Cannot install BinDiff 4.0.1 in Windows 7 x64 with Java 8 #31

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install Java 8.
2. Try to run the bindiff401-win-x86.msi installer.
3. It says: zynamics BinDiff 4.0.1 requiresa working Java Runtime Environment 
(JRE). Install JRE 1.6 or higher first.

This is a fresh install in a new Windows 7 x64 machine. I installed it in the 
past in other machines without any problems.

You have probably installed the 32 bit Java version. Please install the 64Bit 
version and try again. Let us know if you still have problems. Thanks.

Hi,

I verified I only have installed the x64 version on my Windows 7 machine but, 
still, I cannot install it. It says I have installed "Java 8 Update 25 
(64-bit)".

BTW, I managed to extract the files and manually copied to the corresponding 
paths. If you could share a .reg script (or something like this) to create the 
appropriate registry keys, I would be more than happy (when the plugins are 
loaded in IDA it says  "Error: could not load configuration file. Skipping 
plugin.").

I found the issue, the installer checks for either 1.6 or 1.7 for JREVERSION 
and JREVERSIONWOW64:

JREVERSION = "1.6" OR JREVERSION = "1.7" OR        JREVERSIONWOW64 = "1.6" OR 
JREVERSIONWOW64 = "1.7"zynamics BinDiff 4.0.1 requires a working Java Runtime 
Environment (JRE). Install JRE 1.6 or higher first.

Java 8 is version 1.8.  Changing the appropriate “1.6” string to “1.8” 
fixes the issue for JAVA 8.

Thanks for taking only 5 months. However, I have a better fix:
