** SOLVED** Upgrade help

Post by rocketman »

I'm preparing to upgrade from 8.1 to 8.6

I've recreated my entire production server on my testing server using MySQL 5.7 and AwareIM 8.1. Checked out all the logins All OK,
Then I installed 8.6 - choosing to overwrite my existing 8.1
Went to start up 8.6 and keep getting the following error message

"Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
-Djava.endorsed.dirs=D:/AwareIM_8_6/CP/eclipse/../../Tomcat/endorsed is not supported. Endorsed standards and standalone APIs
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.
in modular form will be supported via the concept of upgradeable modules."

The startup log is slightly different but essentially is the same in a different order

-Djava.endorsed.dirs=D:/AwareIM_8_6/CP/eclipse/../../Tomcat/endorsed is not supported. Endorsed standards and standalone APIs
in modular form will be supported via the concept of upgradeable modules.
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.

There doesn't appear o be any java processes running - left hanging from the previous startups.

Can anyone help?
