Hi all, I'm having a problem setting my path for java? I use RH 6.2 at work but now have a laptop (running debian) and I can't seem to get the classpath set properly. I've tried adding the appropriate lines to export $JAVA_HOME to these files /etc/profile and to ~/bash_profile. What am I doing wrong here? I'm wondering if someone can help me set the path for debian woody? Or a doc or website that details the unique features of configuring debian which I now think is the best distro : )
Also if someone can give me a quick run down of the /etc/alternatives/ directory what it is and what it does? Obviously, the path is already set when configured by apt, because I can type java and get the expected result, but the app I am using does not find it when i try to fire it up gives me an error along the lines of set PATH=$JAVA_HOME. Thanks for your time, CM
