running Java program

[oreo]

I am trying to run a Java program, and the documentation says it runs well with openJDK. On my linuxmint machine, I can just double click on an sh file and the program executes without installing anything beyond what is there already.

So on Porteus 3.01 I installed gcc-java-4.8.2... But when I try to run the sh file nothing happens. And when I try executing the program in a terminal I get the following message:
Error: JAVA_HOME is not defined correctly.
We cannot execute java

Can you help me?

This is what worked for me.

and the documentation says it runs well with openJDK
So download and install openjdk (or openjre is probably suitable)

Code: Select all

usm -g openjdk

Be aware that you may need to add /usr/lib/java/bin to your $PATH. I don't remember the exact path but search about how to add JAVA_HOME to your environment path.
