Hi,

I've been trying to at least a week now trying to get a properly working 
Java environment on my Linux machine......

I tried installing Kaffe (from RPMs), and I've tried Sun's JDK (also from 
RPMs).

The problem is not getting it to install, but getting it to work 
afterwards.....

After installing Kaffe I had the following two problems:

1) Javadoc wouldn't work, sighting missing classes
2) I could process any source which made references to classes defined in 
other files (even in the same directory).....

After also finding out that Kaffe doesn't support Swing (at least in its 
downloaded form) I decided to give Sun's JDK a go....

Again the install went fine, the RPM mananger didn't complain.... but I 
don't seem to have a working installation either.

To start with, simply typing java at the command shell gives me "command 
not found".

Thinking it could simply be a missing path in my path string I tried 
/usr/java/jdk1.3/bin/java which gives me different output....

/usr/java/jdk1.3/bin/java: /usr/bin/cut: No such file or directory
/usr/java/jdk1.3/bin/i386/native_threads/java: error while loading shared 
libraries: libjvm.so: cannot load share object file: No such file or 
directory.
