Java Mode didn't work

[RanaAbu_Samhan1]

Hello all

I'm facing a problem when I trying to spy elements using Java Mode. I got this error "There was an error during the spying operation."
I think my installation is wrong, can anyone provide me the link to install JAB and JRE?

I tried everything. I installed the JDK, is it same as the JRE?
Can you provide me a link to install the JRE?

Hi @Rana Abu Samhan After installing Java you have to enable JAB, and then it will work. Now a days if you install the JAVA package it includes JDK and JRE with that
Below is the link for the same,

Hi @Rana Abu Samhan

You can refer to the below steps for enabling JAVA mode and check once if that works:

Steps For Enabling Java Mode:

1) Download the Java 8 SDK from Oracle website for 32 bit : JAVA SE 8  and then install it on your machine.

NOTE: You would need to register an Oracle account in order to download it.


NOTE: I am downloading 32 bit since Blue Prism expects a 32 dll driver for JAB.


2) Now, install the Java Access Bridge (2.0.1) from here: JAB 2.0.1 and then install it on your machine.



NOTE: JAB 2.0.2 has some bugs so do not install that


3) Once you have installed both of them, Go to Control Panel -> Ease Of Access Center -> Make It Easer To Focus On Task and check the Enable Java Access Bridge option



4) Now, copy the WindowsAccessBridge-32.dll file from: C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.8.0_202\jre\bin to your Blue Prism installation folder:


5) Now when you create a new business object, choose the Java Automation option in the Application Modeler inside your Blue Prism, give all the input parameters such as the file path of your application and you should be able to see Java Mode while spying:




6) Spy elements using Java Mode for this application:
