I haver also tried the rpm and I get the same error message...
Originally posted by reddazz I am sure there is an rpm for java, try installing that.
In this first post its indicated this has already been tried. Anyway, I should've been more specific in my question. Are you running your system on an itanium processor as that is what that package is fore. If you have an AMD then you need to grab the -amd64 binaries.
Cheers
