java on RH AS 3.0?

[Ryan Golhar]

I ran into the same problem not too long ago.  I ended up deleteing the
symlink /usr/bin/java, /usr/bin/javac, and /usr/bin/jar.

I have Sun's JDK installed in /usr/java/...

Just be careful about this cause I noticed when libgcj was updated is
put the links back in place.  I have to find a more permanent
solution...

Hi,
I have Redhat AS 3.0, and on this machine, java doesn't appear to be
installed properly: /usr/bin/javac is a symlink to
/etc/alternatives/javac, which is a symlink to
/usr/share/java/libgcj-java-placeholder.sh 
And, when I do a java -version, I get:
 
libgcj-java-placeholder.sh
 
This script is a placeholder for the /usr/bin/java and /usr/bin/javac
master links required by jpackage.org conventions.  libgcj's
rmiregistry, rmic and jar tools are now slave symlinks to these masters,
and are managed by the alternatives(8) system.
 
This change was necessary because the rmiregistry, rmic and jar tools
installed by previous versions of libgcj conflicted with symlinks
installed by jpackage.org JVM packages.
 
I tried installing the java rpm, but that didn't solve this. Any
suggestions?
