Cannot Install DDK into 6.4.X or greater

________________________________________________________________________

Applicable Environment

Topic: Cannot Install DDK into 6.4.X or greater
SDP: 6.5.0, 6.4.1, 6.4.0
Host: Any supported host

Problem

________________________________________________________________________

Trying to install a DDK on a 6.4.X or greater system fails: "Please install QNX Momentics 6.3.0 first."

Solution

Officially the DDK's are not supported in versions greater than 6.3.2, however you can trick the installer into thinking 6.3.0 is installed by editing $QNX_TARGET/etc/qversion and adding "6.3.0" on another line.

So, your $QNX_TARGET/etc/qversion file will look like this:
----------
6.4.1
6.3.0
---------

You may also run into the error: "A suitable JVM could not be found. Please run the program again using the option –is:javahome <JAVA HOME DIR>”. If you get this error, you will need to install a java virtual machine V1.4.x to make the installer work.

The last thing that you will need to have is a 6.3.X or 6.4.X license. The 6.3.X DDK's do not recognize 6.5.X or greater licenses.
