Warning: missing VM type

[Prabhu Hari Dhanapal <dr...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

I m trying to get hadoop  running on ubuntu  and I get this error while
trying to format, infact its only a warning and the format is successful
according to the trace. But could anybody tell me how to fix this -

the warning is :
Warning: no leading - on line 19 of
`/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.16/jre/lib/i386/jvm.cfg'
Warning: missing VM type on line 19 of
`/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.16/jre/lib/i386/jvm.cfg'

The contents of the jvm.cfg file is :

#
# @(#)jvm.cfg   1.9 05/11/17
#
# Copyright 2006 Sun Microsystems, Inc. All rights reserved.
# SUN PROPRIETARY/CONFIDENTIAL. Use is subject to license terms.
# List of JVMs that can be used as an option to java, javac, etc.
# Order is important -- first in this list is the default JVM.
# NOTE that this both this file and its format are UNSUPPORTED and
# WILL GO AWAY in a future release.
#
# You may also select a JVM in an arbitrary location with the
# "-XXaltjvm=<jvm_dir>" option, but that too is unsupported
# and may not be available in a future release.
#
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun


-client IF_SERVER_CLASS -server
-server KNOWN
-hotspot ALIASED_TO -client
-classic WARN
-native ERROR
-green ERROR


Is there s mistake in the way default JVM has been included in the file???
