Hello Pierre,
I am putting this down to a quirk on my computers part. Its the only way
to describe it. I was following the instructions through with the page up
and again came up against this error. Even though I had issued these
instructions on the binary jdk page:
export PATH="$PATH:/opt/OpenJDK-1.7.0.65-bin/bin"
And following through to the Junit, Apacheant, and finally to
OpenJDK-1.7.0.65/IcedTea-2.5.1 some how or other my computer LOST the
frigging path. I had to do:
pathappend $JAVA_HOME/bin PATH
This is really crazy having to do it twice.
Fast jar is not needed, however it seems that by me installing it last
time it actually corrected the path.
I now have to make sure that I tripple check the path. I know that I had
entered it correctly.
At first I tried it within a script, but as the scripts enter a sub-shell
once it has run it is not in the current shell's environment. I double
checked in the script and the path was put in there correctly.
So until I get a new computer I will have to keep an eye on it.
I am glad that I have finally nailed the cause though.
Regards,
Christopher.
