Hi
I had downloaded java_ee_sdk-5_06-linux from java's site, but not i am not able to install it. I am a total noob as i have installed ubuntu yesterday only. I tried using the chmod command to make it an executable but when i ran it i got this error
Code:
root@kushal-laptop:~# /home/kushal/Desktop/java_ee_sdk-5_06-linux.bin
/home/kushal/Desktop/java_ee_sdk-5_06-linux.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
i also doing somethings given in this forum to solve the problem but i wasnt able to like installing yum and trying to use this "apt" command but nothing fruitful came from it.
Can anyone please help me and explain things in simple noob language .
You could actually install the jdk6 - or even both. Go to System > Admin > Synaptic and scroll down the list to the packages that start with "sun". After installing, make sure to run
java -version in a terminal to make sure that it is the sun jdk that is being used as the default.
Hi,
Thanks , it worked out pretty fine, but just outta curiosity i wanted to kno if there is a way by which i can install the file i have already downloaded??
i dlded using normal mozilla and the file is a .bin file- "java_ee_sdk-5_06-linux.bin" stored on my desktop.
I don't recommend it because it doesn't integrate with the rest of the system as well as the package from the repositories but if you insist:
chmod +x package_name
sudo ./packagename
Hi
Another problem, when i tried to install netbeans onto my comp, now it is asking me to specify the JDK folder, how do i kno where the file i dlded from the net just gt installed, is there a default location or something which i can give, like the program files in windows..?
I am a complete noob so kindly help
how do i kno where the file i dlded from the net just gt installed,
Which file? netbeans or the jdk?
If you downloaded the installer from the netbeans site and you installed the jdk from the repositories, then the location of the jdk should be inserted automatically (/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun).
