Re: PATH to java in X11



I've created /etc/environment file like this
JAVA_HOME="/opt/jdk1.5.0_12"
export JAVA_HOME

PATH="$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin"
export PATH

The first time I started and logged into gdm, it failed.
Then I went to /etc/ and changed environment permissions.
Ok, I managed to log in, but PATH doesn't have /opt/jdk1.5.0_12/bin
I can't run a program that uses java from the menu link
Only if a open gnome-terminal with any user and call the program, it works.

I know its possible to make a "workaround" starting everything thought terminal, but it's horrible!
Or go to "/usr/bin" and "ln -s ..." everything in JAVA_HOME/bin
but that is not the point, I MUST know how to set PATH variable because its ridiculous. I no windows user.

Thanks,

In my /etc there is no environment file
Must I create one?

Thanks

I have the following line in /etc/environment:
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun

I hope this helps.
