Upgrading to Java 1.6.0_02 in Ubuntu Feisty Fawn

#1

Hi,

I follow all the steps and when I do ```$ sudo ./jaikoz-install.sh

 I get ```The application that you are trying to install requires a 1.6.0_02 version or later of the Java platform.
You are running a 1.6.0 version of the Java platform.

Then I go to the Synaptic to upgrade and I still the same version :frowning:

How I can upgrade?

Thanks!

I really want to try Jaikoz!

Can you try ```java -version

 as both your normal user and root user to check that both are using the correct version of java, as it appears not.

Hi, paultaylor!

Thanks for you answer :slight_smile:

I write $ java -version and I get ```java version “1.6.0”
Java™ SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-b105)
Java HotSpot™ Client VM (build 1.6.0-b105, mixed mode, sharing)



I write $ sudo java -version and I get ```java version "1.6.0"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-b105)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0-b105, mixed mode, sharing)

:frowning:

Ok the answer is self evident you have Java 1.6.0 installed but you need at least 1.6.0_02. Please get the latest version from java.sun.com and try again.

I solve the problem. I add the sid repository to my sources.list. I updated Java and remove the repository.

Today I change from Kubuntu Gutsy to Debian Lenny. I have the same issue, So i get an error when i want to install jaikoz. I need version 1.6.0_02, but i have 1.6.0. but when the result in de konsole are:

debian-laptop:~# java -version
java version “1.6.0_05”
Java™ SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_05-b13)
Java HotSpot™ Client VM (build 10.0-b19, mixed mode, sharing)
debian-laptop:~# whereis java
java: /usr/bin/java /etc/java /usr/share/java /usr/share/man/man1/java.1.gz
debian-laptop:~#

What I am doing wrong?

Thanks,

Smika

Hi there, I am also having this problem, but with the latest version of (K)Ubuntu, 8.04 Hardy Heron:

dave@antares:~/Desktop/jaikoz-linux$ ./jaikoz-install.sh
The application that you are trying to install requires a 1.6.0_02 version or later of the Java platform.
You are running a 1.6.0 version of the Java platform.
Please upgrade to a newer version.
dave@antares:~/Desktop/jaikoz-linux$ whereis java
java: /usr/bin/java /etc/java /usr/lib/java /usr/lib64/java /usr/share/java /usr/share/man/man1/java.1.gz
dave@antares:~/Desktop/jaikoz-linux$ /usr/bin/java -version
java version "1.6.0"
OpenJDK  Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-b09)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.6.0-b09, mixed mode)

I tried switching to testing (Intrepid) repositories and updating, but the version number did not change and the result was the same.

It seems I’m running 1.6 beta 9, the only newer version on the sun webpage is 1.6 beta 10…

Any ideas? Is there anyone else who has managed to get jaikoz to work on recent builds of java and debian/ubuntu releases?

Hi no, there are four levels - you running 1.6.0_0 build 9 you need 1.6.0_2 , the beta you are referring to is 1.6.0_10 . Get the elatest one from Sun and should be ok.
