Ok, I've finally figured out that I have to set
CLASSPATH=/usr/local/jdk118_v1/lib/classes.zip, even thought the
documentation seem pretty clear about _un_setting the CLASSPATH. So now I
can compile and run my "hello world" program. Off I go to try the Oracle
Installer again. This time I get:
Initializing Java Virtual Machine from /usr/local/jre/bin/jre. Please
wait...
Error in CreateOUIProcess(): -1
: Bad address
Any ideas on this one? Since can run my "hello world" program, I guess this
one probably has to do with the Oracle Installer, not Java, huh?
