limewire and suse 72
 
hi,

i've tried the solution by editing the runlime.sh
changed:
/usr/lib/jdk1.1.8/bin/java -classpath . RunLime

That do not work.
Message:
Unable to initialize threads: cannot find class java/lang/Thread

What is wrong? Do i need jdk1.3.1?

Thx

cannot find class java/lang/Thread - SuSE 7.2
 
Hi,

I'm trying to get this LimeWire to run but I keep getting this error; "Unable to initialize threads: cannot find class java/lang/Thread ". I'm running SuSE 7.2 and I've got 1.1.8 Java installed. So do we have a solution?

I get the same error. I have Suse 7.0 PPC (Mac) and jdk1.1.8. I've downloaded jdk1.3.1 but have hard time uncompressing it and installing. Do you know what utility I should use to uncompress *.bin files? thanks.

Well I think I solved the above problem by installing j2re 1.3.1.

this is installed in /opt/jre131
LimeWire is in my home directory.

when I try to run LimeWire (sh limewire.sh)
I get a java not found error. So what do I do now?

Thanks,

Well I tried something else. According to another post I need to my a link form Java to my /usr/bin, which I've now done.

So when I put in the commands...

sh runlime.sh
or
java -cp . RunLime
or
java -cp .:LimeWire.jar:collections.jar com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.Main

nothing happens. No error message, just nothing. So once again I still need some help.


Ciao,

Everyone who has trouble using LimeWire heed the following advice :)

Install/Unpack troubles
(1) Download jre 1.3.1! Follow the install guide posted by SUN:
http://java.sun.com/products/archive...all-linux.html
HOWEVER be careful with the filenames! The description is for jre 1.3.0 you'll need jre 1.3.1!

(2) Running LimeWire under Linux:
at the shell run: "sh runlime.sh"

(3) Running LimeWire while you have yet another version of Java installed (very common, especially under SuSE)
(3.1) Locate the "java executable". If you installed via rpm, this should be found under:
/usr/java/jre1.3.1/bin/java otherwise use locate to locate the java file ("locate java |grep bin" unless you want to get 1000 hits and "updatedb" to get a current database)
In any case the "java" file should be a link to ".java_wrapper"!
(3.2) Try running Limewire at the shell with:
"J2SE_PREEMPTCLOSE=1; export J2SE_PREEMPTCLOSE"
followed by
"/usr/java/jre1.3.1/bin/java -classpath . RunLime"
(3.3) If this works (and thio _should_ work) you should edit the "runlime.sh" file and replace
"java -classpath . RunLime" with the last statement to point the system to the correct location of the "java" version you want to use.

Best wishes and please _share the files_ don't just grab'em!

starting limewire in SuSE 7.2
 
first of all i would llike to say "Thank you Jochen!" for the install help/instructions.
my question is: "Is there a way to make a desktop icon (or something similar) to start limewire (so I don't have to open a shell and type the runlime script)?"
