You appear to be wanting to use Sun's java. However, installing the
jdk-1_5_0_08-linux-i586.rpm RPM won't by default put java(c) in the
path.
You can see this with java -verison.
Please download from jpackage.org
java-1.5.0-sun-compat-1.5.0.08-1jpp.noarch.rpm
This is a wrapper that will place java and javac in the path and
correctly modify all the jpackage file locations.
You can download it directly from
http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/jpackage/1.6/generic/non-free/RPMS/java-1.5.0-sun-compat-1.5.0.08-1jpp.noarch.rpm
