Thanks Sharon for your quick response! I know where I went wrong now - I did install STAF 64bit with JVM bundle, but I also downloaded and installed Java from Sun and put it into path (I guess Sun gave me 32bit java because of my browser version), so my JVM wasn`t pointing to the right place. Now I change the path to `C:\STAF\jre\bin` and STAX can launch with no problem :)

Yes, STAX (as well as any other STAF Java service) is supported on Windows 7 64-bit (x64, aka AMD64). If you installed the 64-bit version of STAF (which I'm guessing you did), then you need to use a 64-bit JVM for STAF Java services. However, you put a 32-bit (x86) JVM in your PATH, and thus, it does not work. The STAF "Java Support" provided for each STAF installer file is documented on the STAF download web page at http://staf.sourceforge.net/getcurrent.php. The web page has a table that includes the following STAF installer files for Windows 32-bit (aka x86) and Windows 64-bit (aka x64). Note the "Java Support" column. Operating System (Architecture | Java | Release | File | File format (Architecture) |Support| | | --------------------------------------|-------|---------|-----------------------------|---------------- Windows 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, WinSrv2008, | 32-bit | 3.4.2 | STAF342-setup-win32.exe | InstallAnywhere Windows 7 (32-bit) | | | | (Bundled JVM) -------------------------------------------|--------|----------|---------------------------------|------------------ Windows 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, WinSrv2008, | 32-bit | 3.4.2 | STAF342-setup-win32-NoJVM.exe | InstallAnywhere Windows 7 (32-bit) | | | | (No JVM) -------------------------------------------|--------|----------|---------------------------------|------------------ Windows Server 2003/2008, Vista, Windows 7 | 64-bit | 3.4.2 | STAF342-setup-winamd64.exe | InstallAnywhere (AMD64, aka x64) | | | | (Bundled JVM) -------------------------------------------|--------|----------|---------------------------------|------------------ Windows Server 2003/2008, Vista, Windows 7 | 64-bit | 3.4.2 | STAF342-setup-winamd64-NoJVM.exe| InstallAnywhere (AMD64, aka x64) | | | | (No JVM) -------------------------------------------|--------|----------|---------------------------------|------------------ So, if you want to use the 64-bit version of STAF, then STAF Java support requires that you use a 64-bit JVM with your STAF Java services. Or, if you want to use a 32-bit JVM with your STAF Java services (such as the STAX and Event services), then you could install the 32-bit version of STAF (which can run on a 32-bit or 64-bit machine). Note that the JVM log (e.g. at C:\STAF\data\STAF\lang\java\jvm\STAFJVM1 \JVMLog.1) for your STAF Java services contains more details about the error your are getting registering the STAX service. Note that if you were using a 64-bit version of Java, "java -version" would display information that indicated it is a 64-bit JVM. Note that the install.properties file in the STAF directory tells you which version of STAF you have installed. For example: C:\>type C:\STAF\install.properties: version=3.4.2 platform=winamd64 architecture=64-bit installer=IA file=STAF342-setup-winamd64.exe osname=Windows osversion=* osarch=amd64 -------------------------------------------------------------- Sharon Lucas IBM Austin, luc...@us.ibm.com (512) 286-7313 or Tieline 363-7313 From: Eileen Wei <e...@fekete.com> To: "staf-users@lists.sourceforge.net" <staf-users@lists.sourceforge.net> Date: 09/27/2010 03:31 PM Subject: Re: [staf-users] Is STAX supported in Win7 64bit?
