trouble installing java and azureus!!
Ok im an uber newb I've got Suse 10 KDE 3.4 and i was wondering now that ive downloaded java, how do i install it?
Theres a .bin file when i click on it it just opens a text file and crashes. What do i do? I can unzip tar files i can install things in rpm format, mmm thats about it so far. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thankyou. |
maybe you should better install java linux from blackdown. check their site at http://blackdown.org

Jre
hi there konsole and thanks for the response. It says at this link that i need JRE java runtime environment. I have the files i just dont know what to do with them or how to run them so i can setup java or azureus for that matter. I had them all going on win xp but i gave the boot for suse 10, its like starting all over again.

gentoo already have these packages java and azureus and i haven't tried installing the package manually yet.
about installing java just in case you haven't installed it yet and you're using java linux from blackdown, you can read the install manual for j2re: ftp://ftp.tux.org/pub/java/JDK-1.4.2...1/INSTALL-j2re you'll might also have the complete info about how to run azureus in linux by reading the azureus howto http://azureus.sourceforge.net/howto_linux.php this should also be a helpful tip for you too: http://www.linux-noob.com/forums/lof...php/t1447.html |
thanks
So would i be right in saying that .bin files are run/executed through the console?
Thanks again for your help Konsole, if i run into trouble i will ask some more, i'm new to linux and i still have many more things i need to learn/fix. Thanks. |
no prob. come back again :)

got this far
Hi again Konsole i got half way through and now i'm stuck. I write it in letter for letter and it doesnt seem to want to go any further.
I get this error in console when i type :rpm -iv jre-1_5_0_07-linux-i586.bin i get this error. :not an rpm package (or package manifest): and when i type rpm -iv jre-1_5_0_07-linux-i586.rpm i get this error. failed : No such file or directory any ideas? |
i guess that's not an rpm. try
Code:
cd /usr/local ftp://ftp.tux.org/pub/java/JDK-1.4.2...1/INSTALL-j2re |
This is what I do, I like to install it into /usr/local/jre1.5.0_07.
So, as root, move/copy the bin file to /usr/local From a terminal Code:
cd /usr/local You will now have a jre1.5.0_07 directory in /usr/local. Two options here 1) you can expand $PATH to include /usr/local/jre1.5.0_07/bin or 2) (my preference as I like to keep $PATH simple) soft link all the binaries to somewhere in your path (in this example /usr/local/bin). To do 2) Code:
ln -sv /usr/local/jre1.5.0_07/bin/* /usr/local/bin/ To check everything works Code:
java -version |
just go reading the docs. i gotta go somewhere else. i'll be back later. good luck :)
