My home machine has a $JAVA_HOME set to /usr/java, and $PATH has
/usr/java/bin.
I also checked some documentation; they recommend that $JAVA_HOME be set
and that $PATH include $JAVA_HOME/bin.

I did:
[root@Tim-on-Linux bxnctej]#which java
/usr/bin/java
[root@Tim-on-Linux bxnctej]# java -version
java version "1.2"
gij (GNU libgcj) version 3.2.2 (Mandrake Linux 9.1 3.2.2-3mdk)
I think my problem is that I'm not setting the /usr/bin/java to my $PATH
correctly.
I did PATH=3D$PATH:/usr/bin/java[1]
I've read posts about this problem and several people mention the bash
profile and JAVA_HOME=3D.....
But I cannot find this in any of my .bash files under my home directory.
Also, this seems to be an older version of Java as I installed:
j2re1.4.1_03 It shows up in /usr/bin/j2re1.4.1_03 Can you advise on
exactly
how I should set my PATH to include /usr/bin/j2re1.4.1_03/bin/
permanetly?

I believe you need the full path down to the bin directory for the java.
Suchas:
/opt/IBMJava2-131/bin:/opt/IBMJava2-131/jre/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr

/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/home/oracle/bin[3] To determine if java can be
found,
run 'java -version'; this will return the java vm version once the path
is
set up. [oracle]$ java -version java version "1.3.1" Java(TM) 2 Runtime
Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1) Classic VM (build 1.3.1,
J2RE

applications require their own environmental variables for java. Oracle,
for
example, requires a JRE_DIR variable. -----Original Message----- From:
