Problem with java.sfs in Slacko 570

#1 Post by alistera »

Are there simple instructions on how to get java to work?
On puppy_slacko_5.7.0
Have installed a java sfs package but when i try to get a program called superbeam to work it returns a java error "Error occurred during initialization of VM
java/lang/NoClassDefFoundError: java/lang/Object"
Thanks

I managed to get it working. There does not seem to be much help explained simply anywhere!
1.Managed to do it by deleting all files etc that were installed that were named java.
2. installed the java jre-1.7.0_25.sfs
3. then create a sym link in the /usr/lib directory to /usr/local/jre1.7.0_25
4. go back to the /usr/lib directory and rename the sym link to java then it seems to work

hope this helps some one else
