Java!!
OK, here's the problem...
I've got RedHat 7.2 installed, I downloaded the Java Binaries from Sun. Which directory do I install them into? I installed them to /usr/local, /usr/java, etc... and none of them work. I'm trying to install LimeWire and it keeps saying that I don't have a Java VM installed, where does it need to go?!? HELP! Thanks in Advance, Aaron |
If you are on Red Hat:
Download the RPM Run the shell script to extract the RPM Install the RPM (rpm -Uvh filename.rpm) Add /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0/ (get the version right) to your path, and set JAVA_HOME I have the following in my ~/.bashrc Code:
export PATH=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0/:$PATH |
Didn't work
Here's what I did...
I extracted the binary files into the directory /usr/java/jre1.3.1_01 I typed in the following commands... export PATH=/usr/java/jre1.3.1_01/$PATH export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jre1.3.1_01 When I tried to run the LimeWire install it said this... No Java Virtual Machine could be found from your PATH enviroment variable. You must install a VM prior to running this program. Any ideas? |

Whoops
For the PATH you need to add the directory containing the executables: /usr/java/jre1.3.1_01/bin |
That worked, Thanks!!
y'all that help me through this stuff make my experience learning Linux a lot more positive! |
