Thanks - that did the trick.
I needed to set CLASSPATH to
CLASSPATH=/usr/local/jdk1.2.2/jre/:.
So if I understand this correctly, I got the error because the local
directory was NOT in the CLASSPATH; so java could not find the class
I created in my program and threw that exception.
So despite what the install README says; assuming an install
directory of /usr/local/jdk1.2.2, the env variables need to be set to:
PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/jdk1.2.2/bin:
CLASSPATH=/usr/local/jdk1.2.2/jre/:.
JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/jdk1.2.2
Thanks
- hope everyone's advice helps all the other newbies out there
