I have a client who has installed jre-1_5_0_04-windows-i586-p.exe on a
Windows 2003 Server 64 bit edition.

This type of server, evidently, has two "program files," on called "x86"
where this version of J2SE1.5.04 was installed to.

Unfortunately, typing "java" at the command prompt doesn't invoke anything.
Does anyone know what to do on this type of server to get it to see java? Or
was there a different version to be installed? Thanks, Ike p.s. 1.5.06 was
not installed as that has a particular bug in it which breaks it for this
particular application, hence 1.5.04 was chosen.

You probably need to add the "bin" directory of the Java installation to
the path. See
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/iseries/v5r2/ic2924/books/5445775146.htm

The page is for Win98, but the process has remained virtually unchanged
up until Vista (and perhaps it'll be the same in Vista as well).
