I think (but am not sure) that the problem is that J's jnilib (the link between java and the JE) won't work with java 1.6. If you want to pursue this you need to get a java 1.4 (or perhaps 1.5).
Rather than sort this out, I'd suggest moving to J7 beta. There are many rough edges there, but at least you know that people are working on sorting them out.
