Result of "which java" as follows: which: no java in (/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin) This doesn't make sense to me as I have installed Java within /usr/local/bin If I remember rightly, there is another line required in /etc/profiles to EXPORT_PATH. Is this right, to what path if it is already installed in /usr/local/bin? Thanks, JW
