As Mike Aizatsky remarked, it seems, that you are having some version
problems with the tools.jar or what the equivalent in IBM's jdk may
be.
I would surmise that you can't get any other app to run under your JDK
1.3. Does jedit run with it.
By copying the tools.jar from my jdk1.4 to my jdk1.3.1, I have
produced the following internal error

This should look familiar to you.
What's happening here is this : your JDK 1.3 somehow uses jars from
your jdk 1.4 and that is no good.
You have installed JDK 1.4 after you installed JDK 1.3. This
installation has changed your path settings and messed up the JDK 1.3.
Getting JDK 1.3 to work again can be hard work, but it should be
possible. Back in the days when I used Linux, I had a JDK 1.1 and a
JDK 1.2.
To your comment about IDEA:
You may not depend on IDEA right now, but this will change as soon as
you've used it some days. You don't want to miss the features once you
are into it. Believe an IDEA addict :)
