Download and Install Sun Java SE Development Kit

Wiki MarkupAs an alternative of using Java package that is bundled with Mandriva 2007.0 Free Edition, you can download the Java SE Development Kit (JDK) from \[http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp\]. As stated in the reference documentation, you do not need Java EE (Enterprise Edition). You do not need Java SE with NetBeans, either; just the minimal JDK. As of this writing, the current version is Java SE Development Kit 5.0 Update 9, but in this howto we use JDK 5.0 Update 7, the RPM version (jdk-1_5_0_07-linux-i586-rpm.bin).

After putting the JDK file in the current directory, do the followings:

Code Block
chmod \+x jdk-1_5_0_07-linux-i586-rpm.bin ./jdk-1_5_0_07-linux-i586-rpm.bin #depends on the JDK version

The License Agreement will be presented to you. Just press space-bar until you are asked to agree the license terms. Type 'yes' and press Enter. The RPM file will be created, eg. jdk-1_5_0_07-linux-i586.rpm. Then, type the following and then press Enter:

Code Block
rpm \-ivh jdk-1_5_0_07-linux-i586.rpm

If you want to know the files that have been installed on your system, type:

Code Block
rpm \-ql jdk-1.5.0_07-fcs                            #depends on the JDK version; see the message after the   #depends on the JDK version; see the message after the command: rpm \-ivh ..

...

At \[http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=214559\], someone said that "it's worth installing Sun's J2EE enterprise java package when using tomcat. Just the normal java JRE will not work with Tomcat, because it uses J2EE libraries (jars)". He is right that 'normal java JRE will not work', but I think JDK is enough, so I decided to use Java package above (Java SE SDK). However, if you find problems with Sun JDK above, try to install Java EE SDK instead. It can be downloaded from \[http://java.sun.com/javaee/downloads/index.jsp\], eg. java_ee_sdk-5-linux.bin.

To install Sun Java EE SDK, follow these steps:

...

and replace all java-related program in /usr/bin with the ones from Sun Java. You can do this by moving these files: jar, jarsigner, java, javac, javadoc, javah, javap, java-rmi.cgi, javaws, from /usr/bin/ to another directory, and put symbolic links to Sun Java programs in /usr/bin.

Code Block
cd /usr/bin 
mv jar /another/directory/ 
mv jarsigner /another/directory/ 
mv java /another/directory/ 
.. and so on. 
ln \-s /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_07/bin/jar 
ln \-s /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_07/bin/jarsigner 
ln \-s /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_07/bin/java 
.. and so on.

I will write DSpace installation steps here. Visit this page later. However, DSpace installation described in the the reference documentation is clear enough (see the first line of this howto).
