You're either running a really old version of java or you have the java stuff 
that comes with the os installed and your path picks that up first..
Run 
rpm -qa `which java`
most likely it points to the gnu implementation and you have to fix it that 
way. If not, you'll have to go download a newer version of the jdk from 
java.com.
