JAVA bridge not running

Hello,

I try to install DB connect plugin for Splunk Enterprise on Windows 7.

I follow http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/DBX/1.1.6/DeployDBX/Installtheconnector#Command_Line_Setup but at the end I got the message: "The Java Bridge server is not running" on page header

What I have:
DB connect java path: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_75\jre
JAVA_HOME : C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_75\jre
JVM options: -Xmx256m -Duse.metal=true -Dforce.http.jre.executor=true -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -server -Duser.language=en -Duser.region=

In jbridge.log (no error):
2015-02-16 11:44:10,380 INFO Checking for obsolete java libraries in C:\Program Files\Splunk\etc\apps\dbx\bin\lib
2015-02-16 11:44:10,664 INFO Started JavaBridgeServer PID=4828

Did I miss something? I know there is many issues about this Java Bridge but I can't find a solution with them...

Regard,

check your java version and java link
cd /usr/bin/java
When you go to DB connect app there is java path on that need to be exactly match same with your OS side then go splunk web and reload your java bridge .
