I installed J64-806 on Centos 7, activated AVX and ran the jhs installer script.
The installer script created 3 icons, jc806, jhs806 and jqt806. jqt806 worked
fine. Both jc806 and jhs806 failed with "There was an error launching the
application."
The commands in the icons were as follows:
jc806: x-terminal-emulator -e "\"/home/me/Downloads/j64-806/bin/jconsole\""
jhs806: x-terminal-emulator -e "\"/home/me/Downloads/j64-806/bin/jconsole\"
~addons/ide/jhs/config/jhs.cfg"
I tried the same commands in a terminal window and was told that
x-terminal-emulator was not found.
I did some research and found that x-terminal-emulator does not exist for Centos
7 and that the simplest fix was to replace x-terminal-emulator in the command
strings with gnome-terminal, as I have Gnome installed.
The updated commands now worked but generated the following message for jconsole
and jhs:
/home/me/Downloads/j64-806/bin/jconsole: /lib64/libtinfo.so.5: no version
information available (required by /home/me/Downloads/j64-806/bin/jconsole)
This message did not stop jconsole from running.
jhs also had this message:
sh: x-www-browser: command not found
A bit more research found that this could be fixed in ide/jhs/core.jhs by
replacing:
case. 'Linux' do. 2!:0'x-www-browser ',url,' >/dev/null &'
with
case. 'Linux' do. 2!:0'xdg-open ',url,' >/dev/null &'
A different general fix for the URL open might be to parse the result of this
command:
$ cat /usr/share/applications/defaults.list | grep http
x-scheme-handler/http=firefox.desktop
x-scheme-handler/https=firefox.desktop
and plug in firefox, for example.
