SInce I shared this problem with the group, I'll share the solution, as well, lest any other hapless soul dash themselves upon the same rocks. Also, consider it an endorsement of the $10 documentation. On page 12 of same, it tells me to verify the version of my Java environment. It seems when I installed JDK1.3.1, the installation didn't set all my links in /usr/bin, so I actually had an old version of Java. I fixed all the links I could think of, and the problem is solved. Thanks for your time.
