Simple. Just do, as root: rm /usr/lib/java ln -s /usr/lib/jdk1.3 /usr/lib/java That should give you what you want regards Anders On Thursday 06 September 2001 00.31, tom poe wrote:

First, $PATH isn't a command, it is a variable. echo $PATH is what you should do to see its value.
and /usr/lib/java shouldn't be an executable. Unless you've done some modifications yourself, I think you'll find it is in fact a symlink to the java version you're using at present, i.e. either 1.1.8 or 1.3. and $PATH contains /usr/lib/java, but it should - again unless you've modified the system yourself - contain /usr/lib/java/bin
try this: export PATH=/usr/lib/java/bin:$PATH java -jar batik-svgbrowser.jar

Hi, Anders: Thank you for the comments. I now have the echo $PATH explanation entered in my personal notes, and hopefully, will remember to look there, first. My running of the ls -al command shows this: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Sep 3 12:47 java -> jdk1.1.8d
I don't want this! This is the problem. I want something that says lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Sep 3 12:47 java ->jdk1.3 !!!!!
So, I'm off to find such a something. Do you think I can make one? Thanks, Tom
