Hi,

You are mentioning that you are unable to remove the old version. What is the error if you go for removing this. Note that it should not be in use while you go for removing. Use TUI command swremove for this.

I even think that you can install new version without removing the earlier one.Here is the output from server stating both versions.

iocdv101:/home/hp>>swlist |grep -i java
B8111AA 1.2.2.15.00 Java 2 RTE for HP-UX (700/800), PA1.1 + PA2.0 Add On

You can install new verion with swinstall command having specify the location of your depot.

#swinstall -s /path_to_depot/xyz.depot

hi,

try swremove and select the old jdk version u do not need.

it should no longer be in installed or configured state after removal. either it was still being use during the time of removal or u have not perform swremove correctly.

regards.

Hi,

I was on off so it is a late reply. Yes you can remove old versions with swremove command. It works in TUI, GUI & command mode. You can use TUI/GUI mode for convenience. Select the product you want to uninstall and it will be removed. As you have not attached all the error logs it is difficult to say wheaather you really need to remove it or not. What I see from my system is that it has more than one software installed of different versions. In that case you should be through with installation without requiring to remove earlier one.

HTH,
