The missing file is "java". (java is a JRE (java runtime environment), but it's not looking for a file called jre, it's looking for a file called java) Rather than editing javapath and replacing it, why not just symlink /usr/bin/java to wherever you actually have java installed? Much easier in the long run. If your system is already configured to symlink /usr/bin/java to /usr/bin/jsdk-1.4.5.2.1.3.4/dfadsfasdfasdf or whatever then no config needs to change. Also means it's much easier to upgrade to newer versions of java in the future, just change the symlink to point at the new installation of java. Rather than, say, having to update the config files of all of your applications which use java!
