The installer is using your temporary folder, which defaults to the C: drive, to unpack the installer. You could try changing your temporary folder - I believe the environment variable TEMP is what you have to change. (Be careful you don't much it up by deleting it or things could a bit wrong!) How you do this depends on your version of windows. Google around a bit. McDisclaimer: I am not responsible if you mong your machine up, what you do is up to you. Also, why not delete temp internet files etc. and glib yourself some more disk space? alex Back to top David Postill Guest Posted: Fri Dec 19, 2003 11:48 am    Post subject: Re: Problem to install "Java2SDK1.4.2" on drive D: (Microsof In article <3fe24bc7$0$1753$5a62ac22 (AT) freenews (DOT) iinet.net.au>, on Fri, 19 Dec 2003 08:51:10 +0800, "Nick" <n_i_c_k (AT) a_u_s_t_e_n (DOT) com.au> wrote: Quote: Possibly not enough temp space on C drive to run installer?

But then realised that if the installation wizard was actually running (in order to allow the install directory to be changed) then the exe must already unpacked... Second thoughts ... the installer also tries to install the JRE as well as the JDK. Perhaps there is enoght temp space to start the initial JDK installation but not enough to unpack and install the JRE... <davidp /> -- David Postill Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         AppletTalk.com Forum Index -> Java Help All times are GMT Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Java Newsgroups----------------Java DiscussionsWeb-based java games comp.lang.java 3D Graphics API's for Java Java: Support and criticism Java System Announcements comp.lang.java.api JavaBeans Java and CORBA Java and Databases comp.lang.java.developer Java GUI Toolkits Java Help comp.lang.java.javascript JVM, native methods and hardware comp.lang.java.misc Java Language Programming Security and Java comp.lang.java.setup Java Software Tools comp.lang.java.tech ibm.software.java.linux  Non-English Java Newsgroups----------------Java Language (German)Language Java (Français)Java (Italian)  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum Powered by phpBB © 2001, 2006 phpBB Group SEO toolkit © 2004-2006 webmedic.
