OpenOffice 1.0 instllation: Java not found (on 8.0)
Hello, I just treid to install both an old build and the new 1.0 of OpenOffice, and niether of them see Java. I have java2, java and IBMs java installed off the SuSE CD. I even tried browsing by hand to the java dir -- still no joy. Yes, java is in my path. Any ideas? -- ---------------------------------------------------- Jonathan Wilson System Administrator Clickpatrol.com Cedar Creek Software http://www.cedarcreeksoftware.com

That is strange. I have Sun's java2 as my default and I also have IBM's java2 installed for one particular app. When I installed OO 1.0 yesterday, it detected my default Sun java2 and set up fine. Which java is your default (where does the /usr/lib/java link point)? Best Regards, Keith -- LPIC-2, MCSE, N+ Got spam? Get spastic http://spastic.sourceforge.net
I saw this problem with the last (version .641?) but was able to install last night and it installed with the most current Java2 runtime ( JRE ) 1.40. -----Original Message----- From: Keith Winston [mailto:kwinston@twmi.rr.com] Sent: Thursday, May 02, 2002 5:46 PM To: suse-linux-e@suse.com Subject: Re: [SLE] OpenOffice 1.0 instllation: Java not found (on 8.0) On Thu, May 02, 2002 at 04:20:31PM -0500, JW wrote:

i had no problems installing OO 1.0
I'm guessing that unless you tell the install program correctly the first or second attempt. The program gets stuck in a loop. -----Original Message----- From: RR [mailto:landy@despiertapr.com] Sent: Thursday, May 02, 2002 6:23 PM To: peter_banks@charter.net Cc: Keith Winston; suse-linux-e@suse.com Subject: RE: [SLE] OpenOffice 1.0 instllation: Java not found (on 8.0) On Thu, 2002-05-02 at 18:04, peter banks wrote:

Old Java [1] lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Apr 30 01:12 java -> SunJava1-1.1.8 jw@suse3:~> rpm -qf /usr/lib/SunJava1-1.1.8/bin/java java-1.1.8v3-25 jw@suse3:~> rpm -qa |grep java java2-1.3.1-275 java-1.1.8v3-25 gjava-2.95.3-216 I manually changed the symlink to the java2 dir: suse3:/usr/lib # ls -l |grep java lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 May 2 19:15 java -> SunJava2-1.3.1 And OO saw it. Kinda curious that it didn't see IBM java or java[1], but anyway it's working... apparently it can only utilise a java2 compatible system. Thanks. -- ---------------------------------------------------- Jonathan Wilson System Administrator Clickpatrol.com Cedar Creek Software http://www.cedarcreeksoftware.com
