give me done with no prob , but there is no java file in /usr/bin/ ,
can any one suggest some thing about that ?

look in /usr/java

if you know what you want, you can create a symbolic link in /usr/bin
but that should never be necessary.
It's too bad that RedHat and Sun can't agree on where java should live.

It's a third party RPM!
Of course it should install out of the way!
That way you can use Sun's RPM or another RPM, or both!

For earlier versions of fedora, jpackage.org had a way to fix this breakage, but they seem to have stopped at FC6.

Maybe there should be something in /etc/alternatives...

Or maybe no one should have ever shipped an imitation java that doesn't meet the spec and called it java in the first place.
