compiling problem on linux
843810Jul 23 2003 — edited May 28 2006Hi,
I have a problem with compiling a java applet on SuSe Linux 7.3. It is the Eteira IRC client which i have downloaded from Sourceforge. When i try to compile it with the included build.sh (and Ant, build.xml ...), it displays and error that the JAVA_HOME variable was not set, although i have set (and verified through the SET command that it's there) it before executing the build.sh. I'm doing this in Midnight Commander and get the same result either if logged in as root user or normal user. I have installed all Java SDK's (1.1.7, 1.3, 1.3.1 and some IBM Java2 ...) and other things from the SuSe 7.3 installation CD's and i'm always getting the same result with the JAVA_HOME not set and that it couldnt find a particular class java/lang/thread.
The variable is not set until i do that manually. Dont know how to do that so that it would remain in variables forever.
variable currently set to:
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jdk1.3.1
Can someone help me please ? thx
