problem with jdk6

[sanjoy sa]

I install jdk-6-windows-i586.exe on my pc.oracle 9i was lso loaded. but java version shows 1.3.1_01. I also set system varriables(JAVA_HOME) as C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_01. Why the version is not showing 1.6. Please advice.

The java.exe will be picked up from the PATH environment variable. What does it point to? You can check by printing:

echo %PATH%
