Java fails on amd64

Timeturtle · 08-24-2004, 11:15 PM

I just installed gentoo on my amd64 and I wanted to use azureus, so I downloaded the java jre from sun.java.com and when i tried to install it, it tells me the file is corrupt. I can only assume because it is 32 bit? I tried to emerge java jre and it is masked and will not let me download it, and I have no idea how to unmask it, but my guess is that it will error the same as the downloaded client. I tried to emerge blackdown java, and it emerges fine, but java still doesnt work on the system. its like it was never installed. I downloaded the rc1 of blackdown jre for amd64 but both the jre and sdk of that gives me a checksum error and wound install. Im kind of out of ideas and it is getting frustrating. any help would be appreciated.

Thanks a lot.

Sun's Java packages are compiled for Linux 32bit ELF so they are not very helpful to you if you run a 64bit system. The java-config program helps you set up which VM to use. I recently posted about it and while the names of the VM's will be different you should be able to gather some info there.

Your reply about java-config did work to get java running on my computer, but when I run azureus, I am presented with this error:

perhaps im not installing something, or I needed to point it to a different directory? Obviously if it isnt finding java system files, it isnt installed correctly. Any help with this would be really helpful.

I am running the blackdown-jre-1.4.2_rc1 vm if you need to know.

thanks for the reply.

Also, when I tried to install the system vm, It gave me this output:

Code:

It claims to have installed it, so I just continued anyway. I got no error when installing the user vm.
