fedora 10 sun java compiler problem

cmontr · 03-24-2009, 09:20 PM

Hello All - I installed Sun-Java compiler to my fedora 10 server but getting error when :

java -version
-bash: java: command not found

This is in the path:

echo $PATH
/usr/lib/qt-3.3/bin:/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin

which java
/usr/bin/which: no java in (/usr/lib/qt-3.3/bin:/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin)

the package was installed in /usr/local/ directory and this was added to the profile

~/.bashrc

JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/jddk1.5.0_04
PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin
CLASSPATH=.:$JAVA_HOME/lib/dt.jar:$JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar
export JAVA_HOME PATH CLASSPATH

CLASSPATH=.:$JAVA_HOME/lib/dt.jar:$JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar

Can someone has any idea?

Thanks

Well, the first two things to try are:

Quote:

echo $PATH
<= Do you see "/usr/local/jddk1.5.0_04/bin" in the path, like you expect?

... and ..

ls -l $JAVA_HOME/bin/java
<= Do you see the Java executable where you expect?

A brute-force trick to find Java on your filesystem is:

Quote:

find / -name java -print 2>/dev/null

Here are some detailed instructions (with screenshots) that might also help:
