OK, so in my fervor to delete IcedTea, I "yum erase"d java. So, to get java back, I did the following: # yum groupinstall Java I could not locate the libjavaplugin_oji.so file, so I installed the jre as follows. # yum localinstall --nogpgcheck jre-6u22-linux-i586.rpm # ln -sf /usr/java/jre1.6.0_22/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so \ /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins However, when I ran the Java test at ... http://java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml ... I got the following error. "Something is wrong. Java is not working." I discovered that ps says java is not running. # ps aux | grep -i java root 8986 0.0 0.0 4468 740 pts/3 S+ 18:31 0:00 grep --color=auto java OK, so I created the following file, as recommended at http://www.fedorafaq.org/fc2/custom_java.html # cat /etc/profile.d/java.sh export JAVA_HOME="/usr/java/jre1.6.0_22" export JAVA_PATH="$JAVA_HOME" export PATH="$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin" Logged out, logged back in, still no joy. Got the same error message at the java test site. Once again, any help would be greatly appreciated.
