Running Clojure Box in Windows 7

Question

Has anyone had a problem running Clojure Box in Windows 7?

I am trying to run a fresh install of Clojure Box on a fresh install of Windows 7 Professional (64 bit). Java version on system is 1.6.0_16.

emacs starts up but produces the following error messages:

    Warning (initialization): An error occurred while loading `~/.emacs':

    File error: Searching for program, no such file or directory, java

As a newbie at emacs, slime, swank, paredit, Clojure and Clojure Box, I'm not even sure where to start. I can't even find `~/.emacs'

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Answer 1

Is the directory you installed Java to on your PATH?

Answer 2

I also got the same error by not having Java installed at all prior to installing Clojure Box. It'd be nice if the installer checked for Java's presence and PATH-belonging. Once Java was installed, Clojure Box was working correctly.
