An easy solution to fix this (at least this is how I do it by now, on several machines) is to set JAVA_HOME and PATH to something like this: export JAVA_HOME=/opt/java export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH Prepending the $JAVA_HOME/bin to $PATH helps here because, by then, the java(c) commands provided by the JDK are to be found first (and used, by then - otherwise the "GNU Java" that comes with Ubuntu will be used no matter which JDK you do have installed). As an alternative, of course, you might want to install the sun-java stuff from Ubuntu multiverse... ;) Cheers, Kristian -- Kristian Rink * http://zimmer428.net * http://flickr.com/photos/z428/ jab: [EMAIL PROTECTED] * icq: 48874445 * fon: ++49 176 2447 2771 "One dreaming alone, it will be only a dream; many dreaming together is the beginning of a new reality."
