Hello Evryone

I am having trouble uninstalling jdk-1_5_0_14-i586.rpm .
When i tried 'rpm -e jdk______.rpm',i got the below error message.

error package jdk-1_5_0_14-i586.rpm is not installed

And wen i tried , 'rpm -qa | grep -i java', i got

cairo-java-1.0.5-3.fc6
glib-java-0.2.6-3.fc6
libglade-java-2.12.5-3.fc6
libgconf-java-2.12.4-5.fc6
libvte-java-0.12.1-5.fc6
java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-1.4.2.0-40jpp.110
libgnome-java-2.12.4-3.fc6
libgtk-java-2.8.7-2.fc6

But wen i am trying to install jdk-1_5_0_14-i586.rpm( on the assumption that its not installed)i get the message that

package jdk-1.5.0_14-fcs is already installed

Plzzz help me.I hope the info given is enough.

Well, you could try using the rpm GUI and search for JDK.

you can check whether java is installed by
'javac -version'

Anything if you try rpm -qi jdk?

Actually 'javac -version' didnt work for me,i tried java
-version and it showed the version installed.

rpm -qi jdk

It gave the detailed info of the version installed which i uninstalled and installed again and after which i could compile my test cases properly.
