JDK bundle installation on Windows XP

Hello,

This is an error because of the temporary file’s getting path. If there is any type of special characters in the path name, it is excluded and so it can’t get to the right path and files and show this error.

Here is the solution.

1. Open Command Prompt. Go to Start menu >> All programs >> Accessories >> Command Prompt.

2. Run this command:

cd /d <the_setup_file_path>

3. Now, run this command:

<name_of_setup_file> –tempdir "C:correct_path_1" –userdir "C:correct_path_2"

Now the installation should run perfectly.
