Hi, > I freshly installed jython and trying to start I get: > Can't exec "/usr/bin/java": No such file or directory at /usr/bin/jython > line 115.
gij-3.3 should have supplied an alternative for /usr/bin/java, pointing at /usr/bin/gij-wrapper-3.3. Do you have a symlink /usr/bin/java at all? If so, does it point to /etc/alternatives/java? And if so, where does the symlink /etc/alternatives/java point? I suspect the problem is that your alternatives have somehow gotten out of whack. > BTW, I have Sun???s JDK installed and JAVA_HOME is set correctly. Why > isn???t even that found? I don???t think it is customary to set JAVA to > point to the binary. Jython uses the debian alternatives system to decide how to run, i.e., it uses the /usr/bin/java symlink. Since $JAVA_HOME is often set by default, a different variable was chosen for overriding the alternatives system. Furthermore, $JAVA and $JAVA_OPTIONS (binary + options) allow more flexibility in starting the JVM instead of a single $JAVA_HOME (directory). More importantly, $JAVA and $JAVA_OPTIONS will work for JVMs that are not Sun's (e.g., gij, which does not live within a Sun-style directory structure).
