java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: com/ibm/tivoli/si/build/util/MergeProperties : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0

I am trying to update the Maximo-Anywhere 7.5.2.1 release with the MaximoAnywhere4QRelease from the ISM Library.
I have followed the instructions given in the README file.
After running update-platform, got the build error
"patch-properties: [java] Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: com/ibm/tivoli/si/build/util/MergeProperties : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0".

Apparently this exception is caused by running the class files with the lower version of Java, than which is used to compile. I am using java version "1.7.0_67".

Solution

  • I don't think your JAVA_HOME/PATH is pointing to the 1.7.0, it must be pointing to a Java 1.6 version. We require 1.7 Java.

    Ant is using wrong java version
