| 38 | If you do not have the "javaw" entry in the "Open with" list
|
|---|
| 39 | Check that you have a current version of Java ( >1.4 ) installed.
|
|---|
| 40 | The Sun Java installation process registers javaw with .jars in the
|
|---|
| 41 | installation.
|
|---|
| 42 | You can reinstall Java if you still have the original installer.
|
|---|
| 43 | If you don't have the installer, or don't want to reinstall Java, you can
|
|---|
| 44 | modify the registration of the .jar extension.
|
|---|
| 45 | In Explorer select "Tools" then "Folder options"
|
|---|
| 46 | Select the "File types" tab
|
|---|
| 47 | First check to see if teh JAR Extension is in the list

|
|---|
| 66 | Log in to the shell as the user that is running X
|

| 67 | Ensure you have exported your DISPLAY variable (echo $DISPLAY) if not export it
|
|---|
| 68 | > export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0
|
|---|
| 69 |
|
|---|
| 70 | Check the default java is the correct version
|
|---|
| 71 | > java -version
|
|---|
| 72 |
|
|---|
| 73 | If the java binary is not found, but you do have Java installed
|
|---|
| 74 | Add the bin directory of the Java installation to your path
|
|---|
| 75 | > export PATH=$PATH:[path to Java]/bin
|
|---|
| 76 | run the installer with > java -jar [installer-file].jar
|

| 77 |
|
|---|
| 78 | If the default java version is below 1.4
|
|---|
| 79 | If you do NOT have a recent version installed anywhere on your system
|
|---|
| 80 | install the Sun Java JRE or SDK for linux.
|
|---|
| 81 | If/when you DO have a recent version of Java installed
|
|---|
| 82 | find the location of the java installation
|
|---|
| 83 | e.g /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_04
|
|---|
| 84 | export the JAVA_HOME variable of the installation
|
|---|
| 85 | > export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_04
|
|---|
| 86 | run the following command
|
|---|
| 87 | > $JAVA_HOME/bin/java -jar [installer-file].jar
|
|---|
| 88 | You should consider adding the export JAVA_HOME entry to your profile
|
|---|
| 89 | and/or ensure the location of the JAVA_HOME/bin directory for Java >1.4
|
|---|
| 90 | is in your PATH
|
|---|
| 91 |
|
|---|
| 92 | If the default java version IS above 1.4
|
|---|
| 93 | run the installer with > java -jar [installer-file].jar
|
|---|
| 94 |
|
|---|
| 95 |
|
|---|
| 96 | Without X (command line)
|
|---|
| 97 |
|
|---|
| 98 | The installer will run on the command line with a text interface if it is not
|
|---|
| 99 | possible to load the GUI.
|
|---|
| 100 | running the following command without a DISPLAY variable or in runlevel 3 will
|
|---|
| 101 | start the installer in text mode
|
