Mozilla 1.2.1+Java
- Thread starter zen
- Start date
Latest Java release is 1.4.2_01.
Works fine with Mozilla/Firebird/Konqueror..., (unlike your version), and makes the blackdown java releases obsolete.
Give it a try. The official Sun installer "misses" putting the java directory to path (the default is /usr/java, while normally just /usr/bin is in the system path), but you can put the dir in the path manually, else you will encounter something like putting in the console " java -?" and getting the answer that java not found as an executable...

You need to add the path to java in your enviroment path (bash) file. Why the Sun installer does not take are of that> don't know...
JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_01/
PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:/$PATH
Add the above lines as they are to your .bashrc file.
Of course if your java installation directory is different from the above, change the first line accordingly.
