Hi Sachin,

Use of -d64 option may solve this problem. Because as per documentation by default it will try to launch 32 bit JVM by default as shown below.

-d64

Run the application in a 64-bit environment. If a 64-bit environment is not installed or is not supported, an error will be reported. By default, the application is run in a 32-bit environment unless a 64-bit only system is used.

Currently only the Java HotSpot Server VM supports 64-bit operation, and the -server option is implicit with the use of -d64. The -client option is ignored with the use of -d64. This is subject to change in a future release.
