That simply means that your profile.ijs wasn't found
in your set paths. J is running and you can use it.
As Bjorn suggested, try
2 + 2
While this doesn't solve your problem, it is a hint.
I have avoided saying anything in this thread because
the installation setup is changing radically in the
new release (j602 beta) - I think it will become much
simpler, but you seem to be anxious to get it working.
In j601 (and earlier) I have put the j601 library
into /usr/local/lib - then in /usr/local/bin I put the
symbolic link:
ls -l /usr/local/bin/j601/ja
... /usr/local/bin/ja -> /usr/local/lib/j504/jconsole
(i.e. that is done as super user with command:
ln -s /usr/local/lib/j504/jconsole /usr/local/bin/ja
)
That way, I can use ja in any directory since my path
(and i suspect yours) contains /usr/local/bin.
In my Redhat system, I also change /etc/profile to contain
...
if [ -z "$INPUTRC" -a ! -f "$HOME/.inputrc" ]; then
INPUTRC=/etc/inputrc
fi
JPATHj601="/usr/local/lib/j601/"
export PATH USER LOGNAME MAIL HOSTNAME HISTSIZE INPUTRC JPATHj601
...
That change lets j find your j601 library and profile.ijs
This incantation is what the new procedure in j602 beta is
doing away with - but your experience/feedback may be useful
to the developers to make things better/nicer for future
users, so it is good that you are jousting with this issue.
This change should get rid of the file name error, and
might even let jw start (which I don't use in Linux, so
I don't have much to offer on that - except that it does
require a current release of Java (which you likely have
in your Fedora system).
Hope you have success and come back into the forum with
more questions.
