Running Java Apps
Currently it appears that only version 1.4.2 of the JRE (Java Runtime Environment) is installed, which is not suitable for all applications. To use the newer version of JRE, you need to specify the full path to the java executable that is installed in the home directory e.g. instead of
java app.jar
use
/home/e.skippington/Programs/java/jre1.6.0_07/bin/java app.jar
This has been temporarily fixed by creating a symlink in ~/bin/ of java pointing to the new version of java.
