which java 64bit download for Solaris 10 VM - java

I downloaded Solaris 5.10 VM (ova) for VMWare (win7 pro) and I am trying to update the pre-installed java6 x64 to java 7_79 x64 JDK from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7-downloads-1880260.html
It seems I have 64bit support (isainfo returns amd64) and I am trying to determine which is the correct java64 download. I am confused.
I tried Solaris x64 16.38 MB jdk-7u79-solaris-x64.tar.gz but when I run java -version I get
Error occurred during initialization of VM
A fatal exception has occurred. program will exit.
I also tried another download
Solaris x86 96.66 MB jdk-7u79-solaris-i586.tar.gz
but that as I suspected, turns out to be 32bit only.
I did not try the Sparc ones as I suspect they are for Sparc arch.
Help appreciated.

You need to install both the 32 bit and 64 bit packages. The latter is not, as its size shows, a complete JDK but only an add-on including the 64 bit binaries/libraries.

Sorry for the delay. First, uninstall all versions of java. Seconds, I noticed that the link you provided is out of date. Java 8 came out recently so you should use that unless you have compatibility issues.
Java 8
Choose: Solaris x64
Finally, if this does not work, uninstall and just try again with a different download from the page I provided.

Install 32 bit JVM on mac os 10.10.5

I am facing issue to install 32 JVM on mac osx 10.10.5. When i run the command java -version -d32. It shows me this error.
Error: This Java instance does not support a 32-bit JVM.
Please install the desired version.
How can i resolve this error and install 32 JVM on my machine.
I have checked the Java official websites but i have not found the jdk version 32 bit version. Can anybody point me to the documentation. Also, i have searched the net but have not found any direct answer.
So, you have HUGE problem here. Oracle provides JDK in 64bit flavor only. You can always try to install JVM from Apple (1.6). As far as I recall, it was supporting 32/64 bit (to be checked):
https://download.developer.apple.com/Java/java_for_mac_os_x_10.6_update_3_developer_package/javadeveloper_10.6_10m3326.dmg
Another thing you can do is to look for OpenJDK binary with 32bit support:

Cannot install java 64bit when 32 bit works fine

I can Install Java 32 bit but not 64 bit.

System Specs
EDIT: Solved - Download a complete JRE and paste it in the correct folder, then configure enviroment variables. Thanks!
64bit jdk can only run on 64bit system, please make sure your windows system is 64bit. you can right click "my computer" and click property to check out
Only explanation if you are actually using Windows 7 64 bit is if you are running a virtual machine where windows is 32 bit.
this error is java update error. Maybe you are using online installer. Download an offline JDK/JRE installer and then try.
Your system is x64 so you need to install 64 bit java.
Also please follow this link for additional information:

Thanks for your help though!

Sun Java 6 on Ubuntu

The java library I need (jpcap) only works on Java 6, it won't work with Java 7. Is it still possible to install Java 6 on Ubuntu? According to the Ubuntu Help:
Oracle (Sun) Java 6 is no longer available to be distributed by Ubuntu, because of license issues
I've tried to use the instructions on the same site but they don't seem to work...
./jre-6u34-linux-i586.bin doesn't seem to do anything!
Check out these instructions on how to install Sun JDK 6. In older versions of the repositories the desired package is included.
If you're not obliged to, try using jNetPcap instead. It's another wrapper around pcap, it just works on more recent JVMs and is not restricted to 32 bit architecture.
I would try the OpenJDK 6 which AFAIK is fine on Ubuntu and check you have the right version 32-bit vs 64-bit for your machine. i586 is 32-bit and won't work with a 64-bit build of jpcap.

update Chrome JRe

after reading "Google chrome custom JRE/JDK/plugin" I decide to post because I do not get the desired behaviour.
OS : Windows 7 64 Bits.
Browser : Chrome version 20
I want Chrome to use C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\plugin2\npjp2.dll (that is the 64 Bits java plugin).
I launch regedit and go to the wow6432Node/Mozilla ... and change the path attribute of the #java.com/JavaPlugin node to my npjp2.
I quit chrome and restart : Chrome tells me that Java is not installed.
If I put back the previous version C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_10\jre\bin\new_plugin\npjp2.dll, Chrome tells me that my version is obsolete.
This proves that I Hack at the correct place but I cannot make it take the JVM 64 Bits.
After googling some more, I found this http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp#win and this piece of info is interesting :
We have detected you may be viewing this page in a 32-bit browser. If you use 32-bit and 64-bit browsers interchangeably, you will need to install both 32-bit and 64-bit Java in order to have the Java plug-in for both browsers.
Which means That I need to install the 32Bits version of the JRE just to make Chrome happy:)
I leave the post for future googlers :)
Any ideas ?
I think only Internet Explorer can use 64-bit Java, other browsers can only work with 32-bit Java.
The easiest way to go is to consider Chrome a 32bits app and give it a 32 bits JVM, and so even on a 64 bits Windows OS.
Interestingly, on MAC OS X Snow Leopard latest updates, no issues whatsoever : it works like a charm with the native jvms. I wonder what would happen if I played with the default jvms also...

How Do I Run IntelliJ IDEA 9 as a 64-bit Process?

I've noticed that IntelliJ IDEA 9 runs as a 32-bit process in Windows 2003 x64 and would like to configure it to run as a 64-bit process. I did find an article about how to perform this in Mac OSX, but not in Windows.
Update #1: I have the 64-bit version of JDK 1.6.18 installed.
This post might help. It mentions using an idea64.exe launcher on Windows.
My wild guess, is that you only need a 64 bit JDK/JRE and that's it.
Download the x64 version:
JDK x64 windows http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/8004/capturadepantalla201001u.png
And then configure IntellJ IDEA to use it.
This guide shows how what to change to set own JDK ( although is a bit dated and things may have changed as of now )
The environment variable IDEA_JDK or JDK_HOME should be set to point to the location where JDK 1.6.0 is installed
Install jdk 64 bit and setting of 'set IDEA_JDK home is enough.
Once this variable is set you could use
