Specifying a Java Install to use with Ignite PI

This article explains how to configure Ignite PI to use a Java JRE or JDK that is already installed on the Ignite PI Server.

Since Ignite PI installs a specific JRE version on Windows, this article pertains only to Unix/Linux installs.

 

Steps:

  1. Determine the location of the java executable that you want Ignite to use.
     
  2. Open the file:
<Ignite Home>/iwc/tomcat/ignite_config/java_loc.txt

 

    The file should contain one line with the full path + filename of the java executable.  For example:

/home/java/jdk160_03/bin/java
  1. Update the path to point to the new java executable, and save the file.
     
  2. Restart Ignite PI by running:

<Ignite Home>\shutdown.sh

<Ignite Home>\startup.sh
