Usually, every [well behaved] java application has JAVA_HOME or similar environment variable to tell it where java is. You can find a valid java homes at /usr/lib/jvm/*/jre or if you manually extracted oracle it will probably live in /opt/xxx. What you should do is go over this SenchaCmd startup script and find what it expects. Regards, Alon
