Topic: Java on SME Server

[amicheals]

Hi,

I installed Java SDK on my server in the root directory, but when I tried to run a java type program it did not register.  Does anyone know in what directory I should install java so that I can run a java based program from one of my ibays.

Thanks
Amy

Good question. Follow this HOWTO:
http://www.helmuth.net/mitel-sme/SunJDK/sunjdk-howto.htm

It's dated but should still work.

Also, here are my scribble notes from a project I was working on. It may be duplicate notes from the howto or I thought Sun's confusing documentation didn't make it any easier.

INSTALL ON SME
-java JDK (not JRE, not J2EE) must be installed
-get java JDK http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp (get the JDK package)
-look under the J2EE section & find the latest JDK
-get "linux rpm in self-extracting file" (jdk-1_5_0_06-linux-i586-rpm.bin)
-./j2eesdk-*
-link java with a "ln -s /usr/java/jdk/bin/java /usr/bin" before java will work
-test java with a: java -version
-copy jar file to dir
-"java -jar java_installer.jar"

I had a need for Sun java the other day.

Found some rpms on the sipx site so added them to yum..

Code: [Select]

[root@tiger ~]# db yum_repositories show sipx
sipx=repository
    BaseURL=http://www.sipfoundry.org/pub/sipX/3.4/RPM/centos/4
    EnableGroups=yes
    GPGCheck=no
    Name=sipx java
    Visible=no
    status=disabled
[root@tiger ~]#

and then

Code: [Select]

yum --enablerepo=sipx install java-1.5.0 java-1.5.0-sun-devel java-1.5.0-sun-jdbc

Worked for me. YMMV.
