Hi, I know next to nothing about computers but would like to check out some files I've been told are on freenet. So, I'm trying to install it but have run into some problems.
Okay, I'm running Mac OSX 10.3.9. I've downloaded the JVM (jre1.5.0_06), figured out that "Terminal" is the name of the program to type "java -version" into, and got the java version "1.4.2_09" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_09-233) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2-56, mixed mode) message. But now I'm lost. The start guide says to check where the java installer has placed the files (no idea how to do that) and then there's a bunch of googlygook about something called ~/.profile. PATH=$PATH:/opt/sun-jre-1.5.0_04/bin did nothing. The next step made more sense. I downloaded freenet and tried typing the first of the list of commands to enter into terminal, but when I try the first one it says:tar (child): freenet-latest.tgz: Cannot open: (null) tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now tar: Child returned status 2 tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors So, obviously, I need to do something. When I try to open start-freenet.sh it says there's no default program. *sigh* Help?
