Running Java gives “Error: could not open `C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\lib\amd64\jvm.cfg'”

Question

After years of working OK, I\'m suddenly getting this message when trying to start the JVM:

Error: could not open `C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jre6\\lib\\amd64\         


        

Answer 1

I thought I will share how I resolved the same issue "Error Could not open lib\amd64\jvm.cfg". I found the Java run time Jre7 is missing amd64 folder under lib. However, I have 1.7.0_25 JDK which is having jre folder and also having amd64.

I moved the original contents of jre7 folder to a backup file and copied everything from 1.7.0_25\jre.

Now I am not getting this error anymore and able to proceed with scene builder.
