I have problems with setting my JAVA_HOME variable. I am using Slackware 12.0, bash shell. This is a question for the 'Linux Newbie' forum (not slackware-specific).
I have set JAVA_HOME in my /etc/profile, like this:
But when I login in with my user name and type env on the command line, I get for JAVA_HOME the following:
Also, in my /etc/profile I have put the path to my java in the PATH variable, like this:
And when I type env when I login, then the PATH variable contains correctly the path to the jdk (as I have put it into /etc/profile).
I expect that after I have set everything as I want in /etc/profile, and restart the computer then what I have set will be relevant and when I login and type env, I will get values to the variables equal to those I have set in /etc/profile. Why it does not happen?
I have particularly a problem with a Java application, which I want to run. When I type ant, I get:
error: JAVA_HOME is not defined correctly. We cannot execute /usr/lib/java/bin/java.
I am a newbie to Linux. I tried setting environment variable using export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.6 but that was not permanent (i.e is was there for that terminal session). I want to know how can i set environment variable permanently in Fedora 13 just like we do in windows.After google search, some user suggested to edit bashrc and profile file for setting environment variables but above file contains some shell programs.
I have some Flex and Java files which can be compiled with JDK1.5. My server was already loaded with 1.4 (at path /usr/bin/java) and our sys admin(I dont know why) copied another JDK, JDK 1.5 at path /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_16/. It seems very easy to use this java. Just set the path in .bash_profile. I did it and now if I run which java I still see the path for java 1.4 not java 1.5. Am I doing something wrong? Following is actual entry from bash_profile
I installed "jdk1.6.0.bin" and "jre1.6.0.bin" successfully. But I don't know where they are installed. I can't find anywhere. What is the default path they are installed.I want to set JAVA_HOME.

I have been trying to change my PATH environment variable to no avail. I am using Jessie i386 with MATE. Using my .bashrc file works but not well because with subshells the modifications get repeated. I want the change to occur on login.
I tried modifying ~/.profile ~/.bash_profile /etc/profile and /etc/environment and one or two others but in no case did my change get picked up even after logging out and in again and even after rebooting. I searched the Internet and found each of the above places to make the change but they don't seem to work with Jessie.
I am connected to work via a VPN. I am logging into a Solaris box at work from OpenSuse 11, using ssh -X. I would like to start a GUI on the solaris box. The problem is that I don't know what value to give the DISPLAY variable. Is it the local internal LAN ip address, for my machine? I did try that, and I tested it using, xterm on the solaris machine. It says it can't open the display. I have enabled remote connections on my machine using xhost +.I have to run a performance test on the Solaris box at 7am in the morning... so need to find out how to start the GUI
What steps have to be followed for having customized contents of PATH environment variable whenever new users are created? I require this in order to include a special directory into PATH variable; and this has to be a default one for all the newly created users.
I installed java in my pc by running the following on the shell ./jdk-6u24-linux-i586. I need to set the path to the bin directory and also a new environmental variable JAVA_HOME.
I'm trying to define a variable, CHAN, by dividing another variable, FREQ, by a number. FREQ is a value from a file (called header.txt). What I think I'm doing with this bit of code is reading a number from header.txt whose location is specified by the head and tails, assigning it to FREQ and then defining CHAN with bc.
Since I got the liquorix kernel installed on my machine I got an error of setting kernel variable error. net.ipv6.bindv6only at boot time, since it wasnt a big deal I never looked further into it, but now that I had some spare time and I didnt want to see any errors on my machine I found a solution for it, with a little googling all we need to do is read the /usr/share/doc/procps/README.Debian and bingo no more error i hope this help anyone else with the same problem. I did the 3rd suggestion on that file to load the module in /etc/modules cheers.
I'm setting my CLASSPATH in /etc/profile.d/jre.sh. In a login shelleverything is fine. In an xterm window, the CLASSPATH consists of two of every intended entry.In jre.sh I am doing aCode:export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/many/paths/to/jarsSo I'm guessing this is getting run twice in the xterm case. Can someone explain what's going on here and what I should do to remedy this?
$HOME works ofcourse. it's $WHATEVER that -name doesn't honor. Has to be a variable. I really don't see a way around it because $WHATEVER could be any number of things depending on the circumstance. I've also tried other things:
I'm mainly asking beforehand so I won't have to shoot myself in the head twenty minutes from now. I suppose I'll find/figure out one way or the other anyway . Can I just source the 32dev.sh and then run sbopkg -i if the source for the package I want to create isn't 64bit capable? I might need to change the $ARCH variable to x86_64 too, right?

I have been using tcsh for quite some time, both on a laptop running Ubuntu and a remote server running Slackware 11. No problem whatsoever. Now I am compiling and installing tcsh on a brand new Slackware 13 box and when I run tcsh I get this error:
Unknown colorls variable 'ca'
or
Unknown colorls variable 'hl'
I didn't have this problem in Slackware 11, why is it happening now?
So I tried the official Slackware package for tcsh. It works, but it's tcsh 6.15.00. Tcsh is at 6.17.00, which runs fine on my Slackware 11 box.
I investigated the problem on Google and all reports seem to refer to Fedora, some to Mandriva. Many of the threads, across several forums and sites, point to this LinuxQuestions thread:
IN 3.5.10 I am able to display the full $PROMPT_COMMAND environment variable in the Konsole title bar. Kind of handy and I did not need to display that information in the $PROMPT variable.
In 4.5.5 I am having trouble figuring out how to make that work correctly. The title bar displays only the directory name rather than the full path and user name.
This is my $PROMPT_COMMAND:
history -a;echo -ne "33]0;${USER}@`uname -n`: ${PWD}07"
All I see in the title bar is:
dirname: bash
I should see:
username@hostname: full path to present working directory
When I do #./pdfedit.SlackBuil I get the information in the terminal:

You can install Java either using "Synaptic Package Manager" or using "apt-get install java-6-openjdk" command.Java will be installed to the location "/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk"Now open a terminal and type "sudo gedit /etc/bash.bashrc ".Append the following lines to the opened "bash.bashrc" file
"export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/" "export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin" Save & close the "bash.bashrc" file
Tomcat installation requires JAVA_HOME to be defined. In Windows it is straight forward. But in Linux binaries are in one folder and libraries are in other folder.
Is there a way to find out where exactly is JAVA_HOME?
