Manage Java installation used by KCM
During installation, KCM is configured to use Java at a specific path. This configuration is independent of the system configuration, such as registry settings or environment variables. If you need to update your Java installation, you must also reconfigure the path so that KCM can find it.
Use the following steps to change the Java installation used by KCM:
-
Ensure that a required version of Java is installed on the KCM server. See the Kofax Communications Manager Technical Specifications for more information.
-
Stop all running KCM components by using the StopInstance.exe and StopContractManager.exe tools. First, stop the KCM instances, and then stop the Contract Manager.
-
Use the ReconfigureKCMJava.exe tool to modify the used Java installation.
-
Start KCM by using the StartContractManager.exe and StartInstance.exe tools. First, restart the Contract Manager and then the KCM instances.
