Problem installing JAVA on redhat


Hello,

Could someone please help me to configure my Java-version on redhat!

java -version returns the old version and I'm not able to migrate to new version ("1.6.0_11") already installed:


# java -version
java version "1.4.2"

However:
# /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_11/bin/java -version
java version "1.6.0_11"

Please see bellow for more details!

Thanks in advance



echo 2 | sudo /usr/sbin/alternatives --config java

There is 1 program that provides 'java'.

Selection Command
-----------------------------------------------
*+ 1 /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.4.2-gcj/bin/java

Enter to keep the current selection[+], or type selection number:
There is 1 program that provides 'java'.

-------------------------------------------------------------

# java -version
java version "1.4.2"
gij (GNU libgcj) version 4.1.2 20070626 (Red Hat 4.1.2-14)

Perhaps, try removing GCJ? The package name might be something like "gcc-java".

Check your path settings. You might have given the location to the 1.4.2 version java in your path.

Hope this helps!
