If you followed the first poster's instructions you will absolutely not have your java VM properly installed and viewable by the system or LimeWire (same thing, actually). The original poster's goal was to get limewire installed on an already installed and configured java-enabled system. When you type:

which java

and receive an error message or no path, then your computer doesn't have java properly installed and configured for your system.

HTH
