If Java-based adapters, server-side graphics, XBRL, or user-written CALLJAVA applications are to be used, a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) JVM must be installed on the machine, and the server must be configured to use it.
The minimum Java JVM release level is 1.7 or higher, due to required internal components of the server. The Java Listener will not start unless the applicable minimal level for the platform is used by setting JAVA_HOME/JDK_HOME values. For platforms where Java 1.6 is the only choice, expect edaprint jar errors on loading the ibi.webfoc.wfapi.IBICreateCGIGif class and expect that server-side graphics will not function.

You may install a Java JRE or a Java SDK (aka JDK). The JRE or SDK build version must also match the 32-bit or 64-bit bit type of the server. When you install a Java SDK, the JRE component (where the JVM lives) is also included, so either is allowed.
However, if you are using the servlet feature, the Java SDK is required for access to the jar command, so an SDK install is generally preferred over a JRE install.
There are several ways to specify the Java JVM location:
If JDK_HOME and JAVA_HOME variables are both declared, the JDK_HOME value will be used.
To change or add a variable in the server environment start up file (EDACONF bin/edaenv.cfg), either edit the file in a text editor before starting the server or:
The format of edaenv.cfg variables is one per line in name=value pairs. Spaces before and after the equal sign are optional. Values with embedded spaces do not have to be enclosed in quotation marks.
To add classes to the JVM class path for customer-written CALLJAVA applications, set and export the CLASSPATH variable to the operating system level before server start-up or use the Web Console to set the Java Listener IBI_CLASSPATH property.
If JVM-based adapters or features are not required, and the JVM environment is not configured, the message Failed to find JVM is normal and can be ignored.
