vRA IaaS DBInstall

Hi

I'm trying to create the Iaas database using the DBInstall method. I have install jre 1.8.0_201 and created the system variables but get an error message stating they don't exist.

below is the command line and error.

Has anyone experienced this problem before?

c:\DBInstall>BuildDB.bat /p:DBServer=sql01;DBName=vra;DBDir=C:\Data;LogDir=C:\Data;ServiceUser=lab\svc_vra_sql;ReportLogin=lab\svc_vra_sql

Out of curiosity, why are you doing this manually rather than letting the wizard take care of this for you?

There is a company policy where by new databases need to be created manually by DBAs on the production SQL cluster.

well, the error is clear:

Java version 1.8 update 91 or higher (64-bit) must be installed, the environment variable JAVA_HOME must be set to the Java install folder,
and %JAVA_HOME%\bin\java.exe must exist.

do you have this propely set?

can you share what is the current value for %JAVA_HOME% in your windows machine
