Java Control Panel
Silly question here, but I just updated to the java version (7u51) and I am attempting to access the new Exception Site List feature. Unfortunately, my Java Control Panel insists on running on version 7u45. I guess the java updater doesn't change the computer's system version or something (god knows why not). Does anyone know what I need to do to fix this?

Re: Java Control Panel
This could be because new JDK is yet to be updated in PATH environment variable. Kindly check that and update if the update is installed successfully. As you said it could well be due to failure in java version update.
Re: Java Control Panel
I attempted to update the environment values manually because the update did not.
The PATH variable contains a reference to:
%JAVA_HOME%\bin
The JAVA_HOME variable contains:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_51
Other java-related variables I have are:
CLASSPATH
and
QTJAVA
Still no difference. The computer has been restarted since editing the variables.

Re: Java Control Panel
Running Windows7? Try 'where java' in the command prompt. 'which java' on linux.
Re: Java Control Panel
Yes, Windows 7.
"where java" returned:
I assume the former takes precedence over the latter, and the former is running the old version? What would I do to fix this?C:\Windows\System32\java.exe
C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_51\bin\java.exe

Re: Java Control Panel
Unfortunately 'which' isn't as intelligent as 'where' so I can't really say which takes precedence. It's an odd command and seems to behave a little like a search for environment variables but common sense would dictate that an older version of JRE is borking up your classpath. I'd almost guarantee you that C:\Windows\System32\java.exe -version would show you the old version and the source of your problems.
If it were me I would completely uninstall Java and wipe clean all references in the environmental variables. Re-install, re-add the enviro vars and re-verify. Try and get as close to a clean slate as you can because something went wrong with the update.
