The difference is that I configured javaws as a "slave" to java config, like this: sudo alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/java/latest/bin/java 20000 \ --slave /usr/bin/javaws javaws /usr/java/latest/bin/javaws It seems it worked: ~ ls -l /usr/bin/javaws lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 24 Jun 5 12:25 /usr/bin/javaws -> /etc/alternatives/javaws ~ file /etc/alternatives/javaws /etc/alternatives/javaws: symbolic link to `/usr/java/latest/bin/javaws' /usr/java/latest/bin/javaws is the right executable (I mean, it is Sun's javaws). Then make sure that alternatives is set to use what you just installed; > > /usr/sbin/alternatives --config java > /usr/sbin/alternatives --config javaws It is, at least AFAICS: ~ alternatives --display java java - status is auto. /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.5.0-gcj/bin/java - priority 1500 slave jar: (null) slave jarsigner: (null) slave javadoc: (null) slave javaws: (null) ... /usr/java/latest/bin/java - priority 20000 slave jar: /usr/java/latest/bin/jar slave jarsigner: /usr/java/latest/bin/jarsigner slave javadoc: /usr/java/latest/bin/javadoc slave javaws: /usr/java/latest/bin/javaws Regards, Andre
