Hi Folks
Thanks to the many of you who recommended jre 1.1.7v3 - at least there
appears to be a consensus.
I've downloaded and installed this and now get a shiny new error message:
can't find java/lang/Thread
It doesn't appear to make any difference what I set CLASSPATH to. I've
included every dir I can find with a class file in it - no change. Perhaps
I don't really have a grasp on CLASSPATH. I used:
export CLASSPATH=/home/public/jre/:etc etc
It's a real pity as I'm writing an article for Internet Magazine on chat
servers and desperately wanted a picture of one running under Linux - but I
can hardly recommend others do something I can't get to work. And I've
spent more time trying than the whole piece is worth (a week now). The bad
news is it took under a minute to set up on NT :)
The only HowTo I could find is Eric Raymond's, but it's circa 1996 and
needs more technical background than I have to update. Huh, and I thought
getting DNS working was hard :)
Cheers
Steve
