![]() I currently have installed (and working) the older LimeWire 2.2.3. I downloaded the latest version 2.3.2 of LimeWire Pro for Linux and attempted to install it, but am running into a succession of errors as shown below. Has anyone else experienced the same problem, or is it me? If it's me, what am I doing wrong? I'm running under Red Hat 7.1 (i686) Regards, cwsulliv Attempting to run the installer with 'sh ./LimeWireLinux.bin' yields the error message: java was not found in /usr/bin/jdk-1.1.6/../bin/Linux/green_threads/java Resolving the double dots indicates it's looking in directory: /usr/bin/bin/Linux/green_threads whereas the directory containing java is: /usr/bin/jdk-1.1.6/Linux/green_threads So I added the link: /usr/bin/bin -> /usr/bin/jdk-1.1.6 Running the installer again, I now get the error message: /usr/bin/jdk-1.1.6/../bin/Linux/green_threads/java: error while loading shared libraries: libjava.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory. Now libjava.so happens to be in directory: /usr/lib/jdk-/1.1.6/Linux/green_threads So I added it to /etc/ld.so.conf and ran '/sbin/ldconfig' Trying the installer again, I finally get the error message: -Xmx50331648: illegal argument Usage: java [-options] class where options include: ---remainder snipped--- |

![]() As far as I can see, I've got the right version of java in the right place: $ which java /usr/local/bin/java $ /usr/local/bin/java -version java version "1.3.1_02" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1_02-b02) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.1_02-b02, mixed mode) $ ls -l /usr/local/bin/java lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 30 Feb 25 19:43 /usr/local/bin/java -> /usr/java/jre1.3.1_02/bin/java The LimeWire download page for the basic version says that java1.3.1 (JRE) is needed. I have LimeWirePro and the download page for it says nothing to the contrary. I don't understand why the installer is looking for java in directory /usr/bin/jdk-1.1.6/../bin/Linux/green_threads which resolves to: /usr/bin/bin/Linux/green_threads |
