Description |

The deployment.config file is used for specifying the location and execution of system-level properties for the Java Runtime Environment. By default no deployment.config file exists; thus, no system-wide deployment.properties file exists. 64-bit systems require two copies of the file, one for the 64-bit JRE and the other for the 32-bit JRE. Without the deployment.config file, setting particular options for the Java control panel is impossible. |

On 32-bit systems, create a JRE deployment configuration file as indicated: C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\lib\deployment.config On 64-bit systems, create two JRE deployment configuration files as indicated: C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\lib\deployment.config C:\Program Files(x86)\Java\jre6\lib\deployment.config The deployment.config file is a text file containing 2 keys. The keys are: deployment.system.config = deployment.system.config.mandatory = |
