BIP desktop :Could not find the main class. Program will exit

Post by admin »

If you are developing XML report in BI Publisher using word and you get the error "BIP desktop :Could not find the main class. Program will exit". Then open Word and in menu open BI Publisher and click options > Preview and check Java version. It should be min 1.8 and a few other settings to work with 12.1.3 etc

According to the certification matrix to use 12.2.1.3.0 desktop with certified java need to install java 1.8.0_131+ it won't work on 1.6 or 1.7 .
