Hi Maria,
I believe the error you are getting indicates an issue with java on your machine and how the scripts are referencing java.
Have you set the java home environment variable on your PC?
There isn't neccesarily a dependency to run the locate commandline utility from the server, providing Spectrum Spatial webservice URLs can be accessed from outside the cloud environment.
Let me know if you require any other assistance
