Re: [Handle-info] Handles server install problems

[Roderic Page <r.page@bio.gla.ac.uk>]

Dear Guy,

I'm no Java expert, but the presence of "libgcj" in the errors suggests  
you're using GNU Java, not Sun's Java. I had the same problem on a  
Fedora Core 4 machine, which had GCJ installed. When I installed Sun's  
Java, it would still use GCJ by default. You can check this by typing

which java

at the command line.

I think the solution is to start Java with the complete path to where  
you installed Sun's Java. Hope this helps.

Regards

Rod
