JDK says can't open /proc/xxxxx
I recently installed jdk onto my potato box - one of my classes this
semester is programming in Java. The problem I am having is that every
time I try to run javac to do the byte-compile I get the message:
Cannot open /proc/04505 for GC
The number here ^^^^^ is different every time. I even tried doing the
javac command as root and got the same message, except for the number.
What has me the most confused is I got it to work once. But then it hasn't
worked again.
I found that these two environment variables are needed - I'm really not
sure about the CLASSPATH though. What documentation there is says that
it's a variable that's needed, but says nothing about what to put into
it.
CLASSPATH=.:/usr/lib/jdk1.1/lib
FLAGS_CLASS=-green

Apparently the jdk-runtime package has been replaced by jdk1.1 What about
the jdk-shared and jdk-static packages? I couldn't find any mention of either
one in the Packages files in /var/state/apt/lists so I'm presuming they too
have been superceeded.
My system here is potato - did an apt-get update;apt-get dist-upgrade two
or three days ago. I'm runing kernel 2.2.13 Does anyone have any
suggestions?
