It's running fine here with the Oracle rpms but I'm not using the
alternatives stuff.

I have

export JAVA_HOME="/usr/java/default"

and symlinks like so

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 Aug  4 11:25 /usr/bin/java ->
/usr/java/default/bin/java
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Aug  4 11:25 /usr/bin/javac ->
/usr/java/default/bin/javac
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Aug  4 11:25 /usr/bin/javadoc ->
/usr/java/default/bin/javadoc
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 28 Aug  4 11:25 /usr/bin/javaws ->
/usr/java/default/bin/javaws

Regards,
Simon
