Installing Zend Studio 5.5.1 on Windows 7

As much as i like Zend Studio 6 and 7. I still prefer using version 5.5 And if you are one like me who have problems installing this on a windows 7. He’re how i fixed my problem.

Here’s how I installed it, taken from zend forums (http://www.zend.com/forums/index.php?t=msg&th=7855). This worked for me in Windows 7. Modify the paths below as needed for your installation of Windows 7.

  1. Download and install the latest JRE for Windows: http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
  2. Download and install WinRAR: http://rarlabs.com (be sure to install with Explorer shell extension).
  3. Downloaded Zend Studio 5.5.1
  4. Right-click the Zend Studio install file and choose WinRAR > Extract Here.
  5. Go into the folder Windows\resource (the newly-created Windows folder, NOT your system Windows folder).
  6. Rename the “jre” folder to “jre backup”.
  7. Copy your C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6 folder into that resource folder and rename “jre6″ to “jre”.
  8. Go back into that Windows folder and double-click ZendStudio-5_5_1.exe to install it.
  9. When it is finished installing, copy your “jre backup” folder into your Zend Studio 5.5 installation folder.
  10. Rename “jre” to “jre another backup”
  11. Rename “jre backup” to “jre”
  12. Run Zend Studio in compability mode for Windows Vista

Hope this helps.

    There is a entire sub-sector inside the field of the cellular phone market put associated to the jailbreak or unlocking of the mobile phones so that they can be utilised on any mobile network, and latest Supreme Court choices in the USA handed down have confirmed that the jailbreak sector is legal and genuine. That is, finish-person consumers are very in their legal rights to do what they want to their cellular mobile phone handset to permit the cellphone to operate on other network carriers which is frequently known as jailbreak or unlocking the network block.
