Issue/Introduction

SEPM (Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager) 14.0 Java Remote Console won't install from a remote machine when a 32-bit version of Java is installed.

Cause

The SEPM remote java console requires the 64-bit version of Java. If the 32-bit Java version is also installed it will interfere with 64-bit Java and the console won't launch.

Resolution

Solutions:

• In SEP 14 MP1 a note was added to the remote console launch page at http://SEPM:9090 to advise to uninstall the 32-bit version of JRE.
• Uninstall or disable the 32-bit version of Java and only the 64-bit version of Java should be enabled.
• Launch the "Web Console " instead from your web browser "https://IP Address or Host Name:8443". Java is not required at all for this solution. Make sure the ports are not blocked via router or firewall.
