Hi All,
I installed the following from here,
http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
and followed here,
http://java.com/en/download/help/5000010500.xml#rpm
what am I doing wrong? Also, how does one find where the rpm installed
to? whereis or locate or find or is there a rpm option? Cheers
Mark Sargent.

jre-1_5_0_06-linux-i586.rpm lib libexec man mysql sbin share src
[coolprogrammer at localhost local]$ whereis jre-1.5.0_06-fcs
jre-1.5:
[coolprogrammer at localhost local]$ man rpm
[coolprogrammer at localhost local]$ sudo /bin/rpm -i
jre-1_5_0_06-linux-i586.rpm
package jre-1.5.0_06-fcs is already installed
[coolprogrammer at localhost local]$ sudo /bin/rpm -i jre-1.5
error: open of jre-1.5 failed: No such file or directory
[coolprogrammer at localhost local]$ sudo /bin/rpm -i jre-1.5.0_06-fcs
error: open of jre-1.5.0_06-fcs failed: No such file or directory
Ok, I re-checked my steps,
[coolprogrammer at localhost local]$ sudo /bin/rpm -i jre*
package jre-1.5.0_06-fcs is already installed
[coolprogrammer at localhost local]$ sudo /bin/rpm -e jre-1.5.0_06-fcs
[coolprogrammer at localhost local]$ sudo /bin/rpm -i jre*
[coolprogrammer at localhost local]$ sudo /bin/rpm -iv
jre-1_5_0_06-linux-i586.rpm
