I ran into the same problem not too long ago. I ended up deleteing the symlink /usr/bin/java, /usr/bin/javac, and /usr/bin/jar. I have Sun's JDK installed in /usr/java/... Just be careful about this cause I noticed when libgcj was updated is put the links back in place. I have to find a more permanent solution...

Hi, I have Redhat AS 3.0, and on this machine, java doesn't appear to be installed properly: /usr/bin/javac is a symlink to /etc/alternatives/javac, which is a symlink to /usr/share/java/libgcj-java-placeholder.sh And, when I do a java -version, I get: libgcj-java-placeholder.sh This script is a placeholder for the /usr/bin/java and /usr/bin/javac master links required by jpackage.org conventions. libgcj's rmiregistry, rmic and jar tools are now slave symlinks to these masters, and are managed by the alternatives(8) system. This change was necessary because the rmiregistry, rmic and jar tools installed by previous versions of libgcj conflicted with symlinks installed by jpackage.org JVM packages. I tried installing the java rpm, but that didn't solve this. Any suggestions? --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Win 1 of 4,000 free domain names from Yahoo!
