get the sun java binary and add it to our classpath at /etc/profile. but you must disable the gnujava too.<br><br><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 8/22/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">John Hinton</b> <<a href="mailto:webmaster@ew3d.com">

Looking at removing the libgcj package brought up lots of dependency<br>issues which might take a bit of time to sort through and maybe break<br>something I don't know about.. so.. I'm jumping ship! Instead of<br>pursuing this install on CentOS 3, I'm heading on over to one of my v4
<br>boxes. I hope I've poked, prodded, drops files all over the place,<br>rewritten config after config... maybe I'll actually get a clean first<br>time install and have this up and running tonight <fingers crossed>.
