General :: Avoiding Software Manager Breakdown During Java Install
Jun 5, 2011
Few days back when I tried to install java application using software manager, I got the message that my software manager has broken down. Since then I was not able to install any of the applications either through terminal or the software manager. Luckily, I got another fresh copy of Linux Mint 10(Julia) installed on my laptop. Looking for some efficient method of installing the required applications(java and its associated applications) so that I do not face such problems again in the future.
i downloaded packages of java and amsn but i cant see them in the synaptic package manager.when i search them i cant find and when i click file--> add downloaded packages ,it doesnt take this packages.
The Disk Usage Analuser application in GNOME (baobab) only displays directories, not files. I think this is a huge deficiency that greatly reduces it's usefulness. Can anyone recommend an application (preferably GNOME/GTK) that's capable of providing a graphical break down of disk usage for the contents of a user's home directory with both directories and files sorted by the amount of space they take up? Like ncdu but with a GUI.
Today, I need to talk about some strange problem that faces me in my Linux Server, the power goes down and my server goes off, but when the power returns the server powered on and it works, but some services are not working properly like:
SSH, HTTP
When I try to login remotelt via ssh client like putty it ask me for username but, it hangs after I put my username and not asking me for the password. The second error is related to my web-server which redirect me to Apache default page and when I go for the terminal to make restart for httpd service, here is the output :
> service httpd restart Stopping httpd: [ OK ] Starting httpd: [Thu May 20 10:51:15 2010] [error] (EAI 3)Temporary failure in name resolution: Could not resolve host name admin.abakhiet.info -- ignoring!

After installing Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 (RHEL5) the system generates a kickstart script, one section of which is about the package groups installed. For example:
Before using this kickstart script for another installation I'd like to know what packages are included in each group, how can I get this information? For example, how can I know the list of packages I will install by having the line: @java in the kickstart file? Any Red Hat documentation about it? I could not find any...
I've just installed java (jre-6u21-linux-i586.bin) on Red Hat 4.4 AS and issued this command to check the java version: java -versionand got :bash :java: command not found
I try to install the java plugin but the java test pages show not installed. I have tried the openjdk-6-jdk package and the Oracle/Sun 1.6.0_26 version to no avail.
Is there some good instructions page someplace? I have yet to find a set of instructions that provides something clear that works.
This is my first post and I'm pretty new on Debian. I had used Ubunu for a while now and I've decided to move on Debian Squeeze.But I've one problem: I've a Java programm to install and the installer is GUI Java based. When I run the script, I've the next message:
Preparing to install. Extracting the JRE from the installer archive.Unpacking the JRE.Extracting the installation resources from the installer archive.Configuring the installer for this system's environment.Launching installer Graphical installers are not supported by the VM. The console mode will be used instead. Preparing CONSOLE Mode Installation. But this program is not able to run the installation in console mode.
I've tried to install sun-java6-jre but without success.Has anyone an idea to help me install this programm? My Configuration: Debian Squeeze 6.0 amd64.
If you are interested, Java SE 6 Update 24 is available. The Check Java Version link in my signature will tell you if you are up to date or not. The Update Java Version link in my signature will tell you how to obtain and install the latest version. The 32 bit version install directions are on the left side of that page and the 64 bit instructions are on the right side.
Just remember to remove the current version before installing the new one as it says in the instructions. The remove instructions are below the install instructions. Also, in Step 9 - "Now you'll want to tell the system, that there's a new Java version available." See the note below it that says if you get an error upon entering the command once, enter it a second time. I have to do that and sometimes forget. Just thought I would mention that. These instructions are already setup for version 6 update 24, but they can be modified for any update and they will work. I have been using these instructions for a couple of years and they work.
I have a Ubuntu Server.From the terminal, how should I install JDK?In this guide it says to use this command: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin sun-java6-jre sun-java6-jdk.But on Suns website, it says JDK includes the JRE, so why the JRE in the line above? Anybody know how to actually install Java?
Is it possible to for me directly RDP into my company's RDP server from my Linux OS, in same way I can RDP into it from my Windows OS on my work computer or home computer, which has the RDP setup settings you use to create the session?
Of course I can get into the work machine, and then the RDP session, but is there a way to go straight into it without using the Windows Desktop to click on RDP? Does Linux have an RDP program similar to the setup using on the Windows side, in terms of being able to configure the settings to get into an RDP directly?
Slackware is very stable and very geek-friendly. I happen to love it... Unfortunately, I've found it unsuitable for day-to-day stuff in recent years, because it doesn't have a whole lot of software in its repos - and installing stuff from source can quickly lead you into dependency.
But pkgsrc has a vast amount of software in it, and can run on Linux. So it could be a solution, right?
The problem with pkgsrc is that the dependency resolution doesn't recognize stuff installed through standard Slackware packages. If you try to compile Gnash with it for instance, it will drag in Firefox and waste a few hours compiling that, even if you already installed Firefox through pkgtools. So with a default setup, pkgsrc is suitable for building on a very minimal Slackware system, but not for extending a preexisting Slackware desktop with Xfce and Firefox and whatever.
Is there any way of changing this, so that pkgsrc registers preinstalled binaries as providing whatever dependency? Or is that not possible? If not, is there any other system that could provide dependency resolution for compiling stuff?
I have problem with software update. As update is available Update manager pop ups and I start "install updates", every time update run and stop at java updates. The screen shot attached.
I want to install java on my Fedora 8 server but come to the step 9 that is mentioned in this guidebut at step 10 when I enter this command:ln -s /opt/jre1.6.0_18/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.soit gives the following error:ln -s /opt/jre1.6.0_18/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.soln: creating symbolic link `/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so': No such file or directory
I'm on Ubuntu Maverick. If I need to install the latest Java SDK, what apt-get should I install? There are too many packages when I run apt-cache search java.
I just got linux yesterday, ubuntu 9.1, with the wubi installer. I have no previous knowledge of linux and I am having a very hard time working out how to install or run any programs, at the moment I'm trying to get java to work.
i followed the instructions on [URL]..ng-138783.html and now it was installed at /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_20 When I tried to use javac to compile, it said "javac: command not found". then I added the following code into /etc/profile
Code: JAVA_HOME="/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_20" export JAVA_HOME but it didn't solve the problem. And finally, i found this http://www.crazysquirrel.com/computing/debian/java.jspx but when I tried to use
[using Ubuntu 10.04 - Gnome] I know this is probably a dumb question, but after few years of not using linux i'm back to it and trying to catch up what i already forgot... i'm trying to make a shell script were when all the commands end or when i interrupt it (using ctrl+c) it wont close my terminal window.
i made a test scrip like this:
#!/bin/sh echo hi there
and created a launcher by right clicking create launcher, selected console application, naming it and putting in the command field: sh "<path to file>/test.sh". (without sh at start it wont work)
so how can i avoid shell window closing after running/terminating the script? and is there any way i can do this by doing something like right click>add new link... i think that in kde it works like that...
I have two modules A and B in the kernel which i am trying to hack by introducing a variable in A which is of type 'extern' (and using EXPORT_SYMBOL) and then calling it in B. Now the problem is how to introduce that variable in module A. Currently i have made a global variable and it works fine but global variable in kernel is a bad bad thing.
I tried having an 'extern' function in A which have that variable and calling that function in module B, but then again how would module A use my variable unless the variable is available outside the scope of that function and that again means a global variable.
Thanks to a recommendation and extensive help at phpbuilder.com, I have a multithreaded PHP script running in the cloud which fetches images and stores them the cloud. It's fast and seems quite stable.However, I believe I'm faced with a situation where I need to introduce an additional lock to my code so I'm faced with the task of managing multiple locks while avoiding deadlock.I was wondering if anyone had experience managing multiple locks in a MT environment and could recommend specific functions and data structures. I've been reading up on resource management in MT code and understand a few things:
1) Any shared resource (global and static vars, memory, file descriptors, etc.) generally needs to be protected by some kind of mutex, lock, or other sync var. 2) There are certain necessary conditions for deadlock to occur. 3) You generally need a sequence or hierarchy of your resources so that all threads request them in the same order. This sequence must be the same and immutable for all participating threads, whether local or remote. 4) Recursion is a very common cause of deadlock, so a process should know what locks it has acquired previously in order to avoid blocking in the attempt to re-acquire those same locks again. 5) There are a variety of algorithms described such as the Banker's Algorithm, the Chandy/Misra solution, etc. to help avoid deadlock.
I'm hoping to come up with a technique for properly handling multiple locks/mutexes/sync vars that I can re-use in the future, but I'm still coming to grips with the algorithm descriptions and am unsure precisely what sorts of data structures or functions I'll need.
I'd like to know if there's a way to disable system suspension during mplayer playback, I'm using kde 4.4.2 by AlienBob on my slackware64-current, and powerdevil as the power manager. In powerdevil I've setup the performance profile to suspend the system after 30 minutes with no user interaction, and the presentation profile is setup not to use suspension at all, but I always forget to switch the profile before playing some long video on mplayer and the system goes down after 30 minutes of playback.
Does someone knows a way, a hidden mplayer setting (powerdevil setting would be ok too) that lets me disable suspension only when mplayer is working and nobody is using the system for more than 30 minutes??
Java is installed in linux machine and when I enter the command java -version it shows java is not found.At the same time when i run from the folder where its installed with ./java -version it works.
first of all why its not working from any other place? also why do I need to give ./ from the folder?
I have downloaded java and installed it with chmod +x and then ./bin package.
Hereunder is an output from CLI (putty)
I understand that the system knows the java is in a wrong place but if I do java -version it finds it correctly. I don't know and I don't understand how do I need to tell the OS that the java is somewhere else, I just did that with export java home and java path but still dosen't work, it keep tells when I do whereis java "java: /usr/share/java"
I have recently purchase some audio equipment and am wanting to get the most out of it. From what I've read, an OS/media player will tend to "resample" audio frequencies at the software/soundcard level before sending it, and from what I gather, that isn't a perfect 1-to-1 copy of my audio to my speaker. My equipment:
Ubuntu: 11.04 x64 Mobo (integrated sound): ASUS P5QL-CM - S/PDIF out on Intel G45 chipset / VT1708B, 8-Channel High-Definition Audio CODEC AV receiver: Onkyo HT-R380 (PDF manual) Speakers: Stereo (connected to 'A' ouput on AVR) - Acoustic Research Red Box II (circa early 90s)
I have the ASUS S/PDIF 'addon' and I have Ubuntu set to send audio through that. I think "bit streaming" is what I am after but I am at a loss as to how to make it happen.
