java uninstall
I'm trying to uninstall java. Using the following I seem to have a problem with j2re-1.4.2_02-fcs. It seems I cannot install java since it's already installed, but I can't uninstall it either.
[root@localhost java]# rpm -Uvh j2re* Preparing... ########################################### [100%] package j2re-1.4.2_02-fcs is already installed [root@localhost java]# whereis j2re-1.4.2_02-fcs j2re-1.4: [root@localhost java]# locate j2re-1.4.2_02-fcs [root@localhost java]# rpm -e j2re* error: package j2re-1_4_2_02-linux-i586.rpm is not installed [root@localhost java]# |
try rpm -e j2re-1.4.2_02-fcs
your shell is interpreting * as wild card, and maybe the one installed is not exactly same one but then if it's installed why r u uninstalling |
I'm trying to uninstall because it's not working. I replaced the * with the complete file names.
[root@localhost java]# ls j2re-1_4_2_02-linux-i586.rpm [root@localhost java]# rpm -e j2re-1_4_2_02-linux-i586.rpm error: package j2re-1_4_2_02-linux-i586.rpm is not installed [root@localhost java]# rpm -Uvh j2re-1_4_2_02-linux-i586.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] package j2re-1.4.2_02-fcs is already installed [root@localhost java]# rpm -e j2re-1_4_2_02-linux-i586.rpm error: package j2re-1_4_2_02-linux-i586.rpm is not installed [root@localhost java]# |
try rpm -e j2re-1.4.2_02-fcs
not with -linux.rpm at the end. |
OK, here it is:
[root@localhost java]# rpm -e j2re-1.4.2_02-fcs touch: creating `/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_02/lib/rt.pack': No such file or directory touch: creating `/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_02/lib/jsse.pack': No such file or directory touch: creating `/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_02/lib/charsets.pack': No such file or directory touch: creating `/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_02/lib/ext/localedata.pack': No such file or directory touch: creating `/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_02/lib/plugin.pack': No such file or directory touch: creating `/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_02/javaws/javaws.pack': No such file or directory touch: creating `/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_02/lib/unpack': No such file or directory error: %preun(j2re-1.4.2_02-fcs) scriptlet failed, exit status 1 [root@localhost java]# rpm -e j2re-1.4.2_02-fcs |
try
rpm -qa | grep j2re iirc, rpm -qa shows all rpms you have installed |
[tom@localhost tom]$ rpm -qa | grep j2re
j2re-1.4.2_02-fcs [tom@localhost tom]$ Results above. Still showing the rpm. |
Can someone help me understand this output from rpm -ivv. It's the verbose output of the rpm command.
Again, rpm -e doesn not uninstall, and rpm -i says the file is already installed.

have u tried to run java? $which java |
I've finally got java working. I found the statement below on this page: http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/faqs/java.html:

Made the link into /usr/local/mozilla/plugins and now have java running. It took a few days to figure it all out. The auto loaders when a site finds you don't have java installed never worked for me. Whether it's the version of gcc or the path, I don't know |
