Install problem -mandrake 8.0

I've downloaded JavaSDK and can run my own programs - pretty much from anywhere.

However, when I try and run Limewire i get this error

Quote:

[adam@localhost LimeWire]$ sh runlime.sh Internal error: caught an unexpected exception. Please check your CLASSPATH and your installation. java/lang/NoClassDefFoundError: javax/swing/JDialog at RunLime.displayError(RunLime.java:173) at RunLime.showInternalError(RunLime.java:156) at RunLime.main(RunLime.java:80) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:native ) at kaffe.jar.ExecJarName.main(ExecJarName.java:70) at kaffe.jar.ExecJar.main(ExecJar.java:59) runlime.sh: line 11: 1168 Aborted java -jar RunLime.jar

Like I said - my classpath seems to be ok for other programs - any ideas?

advTHANKSance

You have kaffe installed still. Limewire requires a Java version of at least 1.3.1 The reason you can run other java programs is because they are probably compatible with kaffe, which Limewire is NOT. Uninstall both kaffe and the new JavaSDK and make sure there is no trace of it left behind. Then reinstall the JavaSDK (preferably Sun's 1.4 version) and you should have no problems.

HeadHolio - you're a genius - you've solved a long running problem of my file sharing under Linux - thanks mate!

Now, if only Limewire would connect to a server now....

Perhaps me using an older version of Limewire doesn't help :-/
