Re: installation problems

[Matt Gonzales <ma...@gmail.com>]

I just had a similar experience. I'm going to guess that you already had the
Open-JDK installed, but then later installed the Sun JDK. If not, install
the Sun JDK.

After you have installed the Sun JDK, you'll need to set the variable
JAVA_HOME. You can do so by finding the location of the Java installation
(usually /usr/lib/jvm/java, but mine was /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.10 [or
something similar]). Then, open up the file */etc/bash.bashrc as root and
append to the end: [by the way, if you have gedit, you can do this by typing
sudo /etc/bash.bashrc in a terminal]
*

JAVA_HOME=/path/to/java/installation (actually put in your path here)
export JAVA_HOME
PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin
export PATH

Save, reboot your computer, and retry the installation. If you're using
Ubuntu and installing thru xterm with the official JDK, expect the
application to take about 16 minutes to compile.
