Fixing java errors in Myst V | Forums

[Mr Zebe D]

We have a number of people who have had the

incorrect data check
STACK_TRACE: 16
java.util.zip.ZipException: incorrect data check

java error message, and whilst some have fixed it by a clean boot replace of their current java environment by 1.5.0 update 5, some haven't - they still appear to be getting the 1.4.2 error message.

If you're in either camp, would you please post some software details (eg OS / SP), so that we can identify what the underlying problem is for those we can't fix?

Thanks.

hey
ok i'm having that same problem everyone has

Windows XP home edition SP2 installed.
currently using the latest version of java.


i've tried the clean install of the java 1.5.
uninstalled my old version and installed it
still can't work

[Mr Zebe D]

I fished this out of Mowog's thread. His worked.

Windows XP Professional (5.1, Build 2600) Service Pack 1 (2600.xpsp2.030422-1633)

[Darkensky00]

Yeah, i have service pack 2..

But still will not work with java 1.5 update 5.

I could not find any other java files when i do a clean install.

[Mr Zebe D]

Darkensky, I saw from your DXDiag that yours is XP Pro.

I wonder what gearbert's is. I just have this sneaking suspicion that it's going to be a java / SP 2 clash.

Great! How do we fix this JAVA problem!

[Mr Zebe D]

I have a suggestion, but will warn you to do it at your own risk.

Heimdall has posted a means to roll back SP2 to SP1A. You could try:

1) Uninstall Myst V in add / remove programs
2) Uninstall java
3) Roll back to SP1a
4) Clean boot reinstall of java 1.5.0 u5
5) Clean boot reinstall of Myst V

What makes things a little more fraught is that if you revert from SP2 to plain XP (as I had to for a different reason) you lose your broadband connection.
You get an error message in the event viewer and have to delete a couple of lines from your registry.

Verify that the Objectname string value is set to LocalSystem in the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\RasMan
After you do this, delete the following registry subkeys:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\RasMan\PPP\EAP\25
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\RasMan\PPP\EAP\26

You may then need to reinstall your modem software.

As an aside, Heimdall, how do you get SP1a? If it's only over the internet, anyone that reverts is going to have to edit their registry before going to fetch it.

[Darkensky00]

That isn't an aswer i wanted to hear!

SOrry Mr. Zebe i am not going back to sp1

There has to be another fix....

[Mr Zebe D]

I'm sorry too, Darkensky00. I don't have any answers, only suggestions.

[Darkensky00]

Well thank you for all your help, and effort in trying to get this to work.

I am giving up.

I have tried everything and java seems to not want to work with me. If you do get a solution please post it. Thanks again
