Need help installing on Remote Linux server

Classic Servoy

Here is what I get when I try to install on my server. I have never installed software on a Linux box so I hope I am providing everything you need to assist me.

-bash-2.05b$ java -version
libgcj-java-placeholder.sh

This script is a placeholder for the /usr/bin/java
master link 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.

This script was designed to be overridden by the supported RHEL3 JRE
packages, java-1.4.2-bea and java-1.4.2-ibm.  It is installed as an
alternative symlink as /usr/bin/java.  It will override a third-party
(non-RHEL3) JRE's java command if the JRE's bin directory is listed
after /usr/bin in PATH.  In that case, it is recommended that the
third-party JRE's bin directory be listed first in PATH instead.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Wich distro are you installing to? Wich Java SDK have you installed?
I guess you’re using a Fedora or RedHat distro.
This error message means that your server is trying to use a default placeholder as a java machine, try to download and install Sun-JDK and then update the paths in /etc/profile.d/java.sh
I can’t access my linux server now so I can’t tell you more, try to google around and you’ll find a lot of infos.

Servoy support rocks!. Jan threw on his cape and found that we had it installed but needed a symlink to the user directory. Then we had to get servoy installed…
