You can run the Java file directly here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP Download Manager\DLManager.jar
But if you want to fix it permanently you have to edit the file: C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP Download Manager\SAP Download Manager.lax
Open it with a text editor and change:
lax.nl.current.vm=C:\\ProgramData\\Oracle\\Java\\javapath\\java.exe
You have to change it to something like:
lax.nl.current.vm=C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Java\\jre1.8.0_45\\bin\\java.exe
Where the exact folder depends on your version. I happen to have this version of java. If you remove the double backslash and paste it into a file explorer you will see if the java.exe file is actually there. Once you find the java.exe program and path you have to add the double backslashes back for the .lax file before you save it.
Once I saved this it worked fine using the .exe launcher.

Worked perfectly. I had waded through all these other suggestions about running the jar from the command prompt, etc but this was the perfect fix so I can continue using the actual installed application!
Thanks!

since my Installation on Windows 8.1 failed - i had to copy the installed files from another PC and modify the lax file entries - so it's working on my 8.1 again!
- thx Mike for your Input!

Hi,
I have the same problem - I solved it by opening the folder where SAP download manager is installed and calling the jar-file DLManager.jar directly.
Best regards,
Christian

Hi,
I right-click the icon for SAP download manager and select properties. From the propertites window I select 'open file location'. From that directory (C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP Download Manager in my case...) I just double-click the file DLManager.jar.
You can also use the command prompt and call DLManager.jar directly from there...

Hello Ravi,
This is happenning because your SAP Download manager cannot seem to detect your JVM.
Please try this approach
1. Ensure you have JRE [latest if possible ] installed on your system, This has to be as per the recommendations from the Download Manager Pre requisites listed when you click on Get Download Manager in your SAP download Basket.
You can also install this JRE , its the latest at this moment from Oracle [sun]
2. When you are installing the Download Manager and in the 3rd or 4th screen, where it asks you to select a Java Home which can be used by the Download Manager , select the JRE java home which you installed in the above step, do not simply click next on this step without choosing the Java VM, if you do , it will again give you errors later.
If your download manager is already installed, simply run the installer again, no need to uninstall and reinstall the download manager, but this time ensure you choose the Java VM home.
Once installed, try opening the download manager, should work.
Cheers
Prashant

Dear Ravi,
The JRE needs to be compatible with your system version, as It worked fine for me [Windows 2008 Server R2] , possibly it isnt compatible with your system.
This has to be as per the recommendations from the Download Manager Pre requisites .
Proceed as follows
1. Click on Get Download Manager in your SAP download Basket.
2. Then Go to 2. System Requirements and check your system pre requisites.
Hope this helps.
Regards
Prashant
