One possibility, at least with the JPackage RPM is messed up
alternatives.

    ls /var/lib/alternatives

will show you the various "master" alternatives on the system.  For each
one that looks Java related, do

    alternatives --display ALTERNATIVE_NAME

and make sure that everything is pointing to the correct place.  As a
quick check, you can also look for any broken symlinks in
/etc/alternatives.
