Hi there,
This is a minor bug, but a big annoyance for anyone who uses java on Fedora. Latter I try to register on Fedora Project bug track.
I saw the same issue on two diferent systems: one upgraded from F17 to F19 via fedup, another installed clean from live media. Both had yum -y update after installation. Both were 32-bit machines, I did not test on x86_64.
"java" is not on the classpath after install, altough java-1.7.0-openjdk comes installed by default. See [ I hope eveyone can understand this termina session even if it's in portuguese:
[root@lgx200 ~]# java -version
bash: java: Comando não encontrado...
[root@lgx200 ~]# yum -y install java-1.7.0-openjdk icedtea-web
Plugins carregados: langpacks, refresh-packagekit
updates/19/i386/metalink | 1.8 kB 00:00:00
O pacote 1:java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.25-2.3.10.4.fc19.i686 já está instalado em sua última versão
O pacote icedtea-web-1.4-2.fc19.i686 já está instalado em sua última versão
Nada a ser feito
So I checked alternaives:
root@lgx200 ~]# alternatives --config java
Há 3 programas que oferecem "java".
Seleção Comando
-----------------------------------------------
*+ 1 /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.7.0-openjdk/bin/java
2 /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.5.0-gcj/bin/java
3 /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.7.0-openjdk.i386/bin/java
Indique para manter a seleção atual[+] ou digite o número da seleção:
There was a default java configured, but there's nothing on the path specified by [1]:
[lozano@lgx200 ~]$ ls /usr/lib/jvm/
java-1.5.0-gcj-1.5.0.0/ jre-1.5.0/
java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.25.i386/ jre-1.5.0-gcj/
java-1.7.0-openjdk.i386/ jre-1.7.0-openjdk.i386/
jre/ jre-gcj/
I fixed this issue by running alternatives --config again, then choosing [3]. Now "java" works on the shell.
I guess there should be no "/usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.7.0-openjdk/bin/java" in alternatives, or this path should be a symlink to /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.7.0-openjdk.i386/bin/java, in which case there shouldn't be this latest option in alternatives.
Maybe the intent was to have 32-bit and 64-bit OpenJDK on the same machine, and allow the user to choose each one as the default java.
