Folks

I cant seem to run index.html and API wizard  in jlink or weblink.  The idle error: Testing for existing Java Foundation Classes (swing). Please wait...

I have downloaded the latest java JDK 8 update 91 which comes with JRE.  But then i read that PTC supports 1.4.1 only

Has anyone run into the same?

Hi Parthiban

This is what i have in IE11.  I am missing the Java Plug-in..  I thought it would download automatically with the JDK kit 1.8.0_91 (64 bit)

Hi Jose,

    jdk 1.8 only not enough, you also need to install jre7 or above version.

Java Runtime Environment (JRE) : It is virtural machine inwhich your java application can run. JRE containts plug-in for browser to execute java applets.

j-link index.html run as java applet, so you must install JRE also

Java Development Kit (JDK) : It use to develop java applications, simply it is a compiler. JDK includes JRE.

My assumption is it will work when you seperately install JRE also, just try this method also
