Very excellent.
The following fixed this.

Be advised, from my limited experience that the open command line command
does not seem to intrinsically work from the Terminal App on the
installer DVD as it is offered from the blog.

However, the installer command from the destination volume
/Volumes/YourOriginalDrive/usr/sbin/installer can be used to install the packages.

So now
JEdit works
Eclipse at least starts
My old Java projects work

So thanks everyone for all of your suggestions.
I think at the slightest sign of peculiarity I will do a clean
install, but this was much more expedient.

Thx,

Dana

You could try following the procedure listed here to try and fix Java:

Were you running 10.5.1 before, and did you update to 10.5.1 before running the repair permissions?

I think a clean install might be advisable.

As suggested, the JEdit does seem to show that my Java can not read or write files. It starts and is visually there, new window, menus, scrolling about box, but you can not type in the window ("thunk, thunk") nor does the "Open" command do anything at all, ditto for the "Save". I am guessing the not
typing might be related to not being able to open a temp file.

I am certainly not versed enough in Java framework locations to be able to pick out a problem with Framework permissions, missing or redundant files. Other
programs, i.e. non-java all work fine.

I think I am looking at a disk-wipe install, as I did the following last night.

Fresh 10.5 Leopard install using Archive Mode.
Fresh Leopard XCode, Webobjects install.
System Updates

Same exact problems regarding WebObjects problem.

The system logs for JEdit show a myriad of problems (a few here)
