Sure I'll give that a try. I thought I had the latest release, just downloaded it a few days ago - did they just come out with a new one?
If I install the latest, does the script un-install the previous version I just installed?
I'm also wondering if I got the correct JRE? I got the JRE from here: http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
You can have multiple JREs installed, but since this one ain't working 100% may as well uninstall it manually with yum remove '*jre*'
If you aren't doing Java development or hosting a JSP server there is no real need to have the JDK either.
OK, I ran the un install (do not have JDK installed), un install apparently went fine, then I downloaded the jre-6u5-linux-x64-rpm.bin from http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp, Followed these instructions: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/webnotes/install/jre/install-linux.html#install then installed it.
Ran a ls -l /usr/java, below is output:
total 16 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Mar 7 17:28 default -> /usr/java/latest drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Mar 7 17:28 jre1.6.0_05 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Mar 7 17:28 latest -> /usr/java/jre1.6.0_05
Ran java -version, output is:
java version "1.6.0_05" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_05-b13) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 10.0-b19, mixed mode)
Tried to find it in the OO Calc Tools>Options dialog box, only Free Software Foundation v 1.4.2
Maybe I'm not using Tools>Options correctly?
I meant to say above - only Free Software Foundation v 1.4.2 shows up in dialog box, the new JRE is not showing. _________________________________________________________________ Connect and share in new ways with Windows Live. http://www.windowslive.com/share.html?ocid=TXT_TAGHM_Wave2_sharelife_012008
