[ubuntu-uk] java issues with Ooo Base
Hi I run a database using Open Office Base in Ubuntu 10.04 (i also run it on my laptop with 10.10 and have the same problem) - the database has become increasingly slow (i had the same problem with libre office which i want to switch to in the long term) research tells me that it's an issue with Ubuntu java and all the forums suggest reverting to sun-java version 1.6.0.22 (i am running version 24) Is it possible to add in the .22 version and then just choose it to use within base? or do you need to completley remove version.24 I tried this - by removing the .24 packages in synaptic and installing the .22 version from a deb package - the bin installed fine but the jre said it was version 24 and was broken what's the best way to do this as my database is running very slowly - its still usable but very frustrating thanks for any advice Sarah -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

You can, but it's easier to set it system wide.. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - Choosing the default Java to use Cheers, Al. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Al thanks for the suggestion I already looked at this - my problem is I cannot revert to the .22 version without removing the .24 version and then getting the broken package problem (i have tried twice) if I run sudo update-java-alternatives -l I get java-6-openjdk 1061 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk java-6-sun 63 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun I know I have the sun .24 version installed at present as if I try to mend the package after removing .24 and then installing .22 (which is the point I get a broken package)it just updates them to .24 Sarah -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
