I'm kinda new to the development scene. I've had experience in Java and for my CS honors project, I figured I'd develop a simple application for blackberry. I downloaded the JDE, installed it and downloaded the first lab on the blackberry developer's website. I tried to build it and...nothing! This is what it says:

Building helloworld
C:\Program Files\Research In Motion\BlackBerry JDE 4.3.0\bin\rapc.exe  -quiet import="..\..\..\..\..\Program Files\Research In Motion\BlackBerry JDE 4.3.0\lib\net_rim_api.jar" codename=helloworld helloworld.rapc warnkey=0x52424200;0x52525400;0x52435200 C:\Users\root\Desktop\helloworld(2)\helloworld\com\rim\samples\helloworld\HelloWorld.java
I/O Error: Cannot run program "javac": CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified
Error while building project

My system is running Java SE 6, I did check to see if there was something I needed for Java ME on Sun's website but there wasn't. I'm also running this on Windows Vista Home Premium, so that could be the cause of the problem.

I'm probably missing something simple here but I have absolutely no clue as to what that is! Please help a new Java ME developer figure this out!!

Thanks!

Where, in the JDE, would I be able to add the JDK path?

[Skipper_Joe]

PATH is Windows environment variable.
Also check your JAVA_HOME variable, that it points to correct JDK path.

try search this forum for PATH and JAVA_HOME, this question was answered in details many times before.

just search the blackberry.com/developers java messageboard for 'error=2'
