Hey, I want to install Laszlo, and to do this I need to set my JAVA_HOME, which is easy enough to do, but I can't find where I put my Java system dir (not my apps dir!) I tried searching for Java, JDK, SDK, J2sdk, etc....I installed the latest SDK a few months ago (which may not be the latest now.) Anyone know where I might find it or what it is probably called? Embarassed

On my system,

$ whereis java
java: /usr/bin/java /usr/local/java /opt/j2re1.4.2_01/bin/java

Also,

$ ls -l /usr/bin/java
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 2006-01-21 05:25 /usr/bin/java -> /opt/j2re1.4.2_01/bin/java

so I guess my java is in /opt/j2re1.4.2_01.

On a console, type

whereis java

If you don't have java, get it from Sun's site,

Can anyone help me here? I have tried searching for j2, etc. Also it may be important to note that my Java version includes SableVM. What directory do I need to set my JAVA_HOME to? I know I had some kind of j2 directory before, where the (bleep) did it go??
Hope someone can help... Confused

Ok, did a little research and found out that SableVM is the JVM that Eclipse uses...since I uninstalled Eclipse it must have not uninstalled SableVM...however I installed the JDK separately from Sun, so my machine must be configured to use both? I am confused, so now I am searching for a SableVM folder...

Well this was very strange, I ended up finding out that both my java and javac are in my sableVM directory!! Anyhow, after struggling with this I ended up installing it in windoze and it works perfectly. Laszlo is by far the only app I have ever had an easier time installing/using in windows than in Linux.
