Installing JavaEE 6 64-bit Development Environment

Installing JavaEE 6 64-bit development environment does not work as one would expect. One might think, since the jre is included within jdk, we can straight away download and install JavaEE 6 64-bit development environment. But it won't work. You need to have installed jre in order to install JavaEE. So you would think of installing jre 64-bit version and then install JavaEE. But, this also doesn't work. What you should do is as follows.

  1. Install jre 32-bit version first.
  2. Add the path to bin directory of the installed jre 32-bit version.
  3. Install the JavaEE 6 64-bit development environment.

This will successfully install the JavaEE 6 64-bit development environment.
