Cannot start using Red Hat Fedora 9 with gij

[joshz]

Using:

java version "1.4.2"
gij (GNU libgcj) version 4.0.0 20050519 (Red Hat 4.0.0-8)

Does JBoss officially support RedHat?

I get this exception when runnig start.sh:

[root@localhost bin]# ./run.sh -c all
run.sh: Missing file: /lib/tools.jar
run.sh: Unexpected results may occur. Make sure JAVA_HOME points to a JDK and not a JRE.

I am having this problem with Fedora core 4

I don't think Fedora 9 exists, i guess you mean 4.

It seems you do not have your java home set and are ignoring the warning.

I have corrected that problem but still get the same error.

Anybody know what is wrong?

I too am having the same problem. I am running Fedora 4 and jre-1.4.2. I am using the defalut JRE that came with Fedora 4. I am going to try to reinstall the J2SDK and see what happens.

Anyone solve this one already?

[ckeilitz]

Seems to be solved: I installed j2sdk1.4.2_08 (j2sdk-1_4_2_08-linux-i586-rpm.bin), setup the JAVA_HOME, lauched the run.sh and it works fine.

Do not use the JVM that comes with Fedora Core 4 with JBoss, it will not work. Download a JVM from Sun's web site and use it.
