limewire and java problem
 
im a linux :newbie: and im having some probs, i installed java because it told me i needed to have to to install limewire...now that it is installed and i try to install limewire with the commands cd /home/Adam/Documents then chmod 755 LimeWireLinux.bin then ./LimeWireLinux.bin and i get the message Preparing to install...
Extracting the installation resources from the installer archive...
Configuring the installer for this system's environment...
No Java virtual machine could be found from your PATH
environment variable. You must install a VM prior to
running this program. so i did some checking and i found my java is installed in root/usr/java and it is version j2re1.4.1! would someone please explain to me in the simpilist of terms how to fix that problem, the only shell commands i know is what i have saw by looking trying to fix that, so please tell me EXACTLY what ineed to type to fix this thanks!

That should walk you through it pretty well.

Cool

j-ray, just because I gave an answer doesn't mean it's the one they wanted. I might be mis-understanding the question, or even not answering the question correct. So it's ok if you post another solution, or a better answer, if it's going to help ;) It would at least be better than "oh, already answered - forget it" :)

Cool

hi MasterC,
this is a misunderstanding. the thread is posted twice and i gave already a long explanation on the other thread. it's in the same list in here. i realised this when i was writing an answer cause the question seemed kinda familiar. then i simply didn't know how to get the new answer erased.
:cool:
but you're right some way. usually it would be strange style to give an answer like that.
cheers, jens
