When installing the Symantec App Center App (mobile agent) on certain Android devices, you see the error: "Application not installed" and the agent installation fails.

Incorrect version of Java (JDK SE 1.7.x.x) is installed on the AppCenter server.

1. On the AppCenter server, in the bin directory, run the following command to uninstall the currently installed version of Java:
   [[email protected] bin]# rpm -e  jdk-1.7.0_21-fcs
2. Download Java version  jdk-6u31-linux-x64-rpm.bin from:
   http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javasebusiness/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javase6-419409.html#jdk-6u31-oth-JPR
   
   IMPORTANT: An Oracle SSO account is required to download Java. You can sign up for a free account at http://www.oracle.com
   
   
3. Copy or move the installation file to a dedicated folder (a folder that only contains the installation file)
4. Right click the folder and choose to open it in Terminal.
5. Execute the following commands to run the installation:
   [[email protected] appcenter]# Chmod +x jdk-6u31-linux-x64-rpm.bin
   [[email protected] appcenter]# ./jdk-6u31-linux-x64-rpm.bin
