Hi,

I've added  j2re1.4.2_08 from java.com  and   jre1.5.0_02  from Sun.

These both install as self extracting shell archives and not as pkgadd's and 
jvmsetup doesn't find them...


It doesn't matter...  I trussed the jvmsetup & I've fixed it now...

But it might be worth adding a FAQ that  jvmsetup looks for libjvm.so in a 
variety of locations under /usr/java/...
like..

jre/bin/classic/
bin/classic

lib/sparc/client/
lib/sparc/classic/

and maybe a few other variations, but you get the idea.

The JRE's I loaded had 'sparcv9'  instead of  'sparc'  directory names or 
symlinks and the 'classic' link or dirname was missing entirely.

Adding a 'classic' link seemed most appropriate for me as libjvm now lives in a 
'server' directory in the above JRE's.


Could jvmsetup run a 'find' or equivalent instead of having a few hardcoded 
paths, as a workaround? In the meantime maybe just a more informative/helpful 
message in the jvmsetup dialog box might help - it was fixed with a symlink, 
but the truss was a bit of a pain as it logged all the mouse moves!!!

Thanks

Alex...
