Getting Started Documentation omits JAVA_HOME requirement
---------------------------------------------------------
Key: CONTINUUM-527
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CONTINUUM-527
Project: Continuum
Type: Improvement
Components: Documentation
Versions: 1.0.2
Environment: RedHat 9, Sun JDK 1.4.2_01, java in PATH
Reporter: Jamie Flournoy
The documentation says you can just unpack the tarball and execute run.sh but
this is not accurate. I had to define JAVA_HOME. ./bin/linux/run.sh failed with
a not very descriptive error message:
Running continuum...
wrapper | --> Wrapper Started as Console
wrapper | Launching a JVM...
wrapper | Unable to start a JVM
jvm 1 | wrapper | Unable to start JVM: No such file or directory (2)
jvm 1 | wrapper | Critical error: wait for JVM process failed (No child
processes)
wrapper | <-- Wrapper Stopped
So either run.sh should check for whether JAVA_HOME is defined, or the docs
should say it's required, or (even better!) both.
