Resolving The Problem

Execute the command argument 'java -version' from the command prompt.

IF the command response indicates Java is not installed, THEN install the latest Java version for your computer operating system. www.java.com

IF the command response indicates Java is installed, THEN disable or appropriately configure the Enhanced Security Configuration on the server and install the latest Java version for your computer operating system. www.java.com
If you continue to get the above error and are unable to update your java version, something on the server is restricting the update. You will need to resolve this restriction and update your Java in order to get past this issue.
