Hi guys,
I have installed DB connect successfully using the JRE some time ago. The trick is that you have to have Java installed, and JAVA_HOME installed _before_ you install DB Connect for the first time (clean install). Otherwise, the install would not work.
Fast Forward to now, and I needed to install the JDK on my server for another piece of software. I installed it, and reset JAVA_HOME and then changed to the DB connect JAVA_HOME path. It did not work. Now, I can do a clean install, that doesn't bother me, but I wanted to know from Splunk if:
1. Splunk DB Connect will work with the JDK and not _just_ the JRE; and
2. What is the path I should use for the Splunk JAVA_HOME - is it {jdk_path}/jre/bin , {jdk_path}/jre or simply {jdk_path}
Thanks/
