Hi All, I installed the following from here, http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp and followed here, http://java.com/en/download/help/5000010500.xml#rpm what am I doing wrong? Also, how does one find where the rpm installed to? whereis or locate or find or is there a rpm option? Cheers Mark Sargent.
