This normally means the class file is from a new version of Java then the |
| 11 |
virtual machine trying to run it (i.e. class files compiled under Java 1.5, |
| 12 |
but your trying to run it in Java 1.4). |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
"java-config -L" (without quotes) will show you what virtual machines you have |
| 15 |
installed. On my machine it shows (the asterisk is the currently selected |
| 16 |
one, i.e. what will be used to run java applications): |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
podge@venus ~ $ java-config -L |
| 19 |
The following VMs are available for generation-2: |
| 20 |
1) Blackdown JDK 1.4.2.03 [blackdown-jdk-1.4.2] |
| 21 |
2) Sun JDK 1.5.0.16 [sun-jdk-1.5] |
| 22 |
*) Sun JDK 1.6.0.07 [sun-jdk-1.6] |
| 23 |
podge@venus ~ $ |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
If the newest VM isn't selected as the default, read the man page for |
| 26 |
java-config and tell it to set the newest one as default (1.6 is the newest |
| 27 |
version). |
