I had to do this just last night in order to run a java program called Arachnophilia.
Make sure that the java binary file is in your Path. It's probably in a directory similar to this: /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0_02/bin. That may not be the exact path but you should be able to track it down. Once you've found where the java binary is located, make a symbolic link to it. Make sure the link is in your Path. For example, I changed directory to /usr/bin. If this is where you want to put the link then create the link as follows: ln -s :: location where your java binary is :: java So, mine looked like: ln -s /usr/java/j2re1.4.1/bin/java java After doing that, you should be able to run your jDictionary.
