Problem in installing JDK 5.0

496951Dec 28 2006 — edited Jan 10 2007

Hi,

In order to install ORacle SQL Developer for linux, I tried to install JDK 5.0 according to the instruction. I downloaded the files and installed it. But when running the sqldeveloper, I got the error message:

Error: This product requires a Java(TM) Platform 5.0 runtime.
You are using 1.4.2 from /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.4.2-gcj-1.4.2.0/jre

sqldeveloper installation instruction suggests to go to this page:
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index_jdk5.jsp

and download JDK 5.0 Update 6. Since this website doesn't have 6, so I downloaded JDK 5.0 Update 10.

How do I make sure JDK 1.5 is installed?
