Java Workshop 2.0 FAQ

• Question :The Java Workshop doesn't start at all or hangs when the first window is displayed.

• Solution(s) :
  • If JDK is stored in another place than /usr/lib/java, you must either create a link (e.g. ln -s /usr/local/jdk /usr/lib/java) or load the file /opt/Java-WorkShop2.0/JWS/intel-S2/bin/startup_wrapper and change the line

    _SS_JDK=/usr/lib/java
    

    at the top of the file such that it points to the new location.

  • If you're using a version of JDK that is linked dynamically with Motif, then load the file /opt/Java-WorkShop2.0/JWS/intel-S2/bin/startup_wrapper and search for the following text :

    # check for motif library
    #
    #MOTIFHOME=${MOTIFHOME:-/usr/dt}
    #if [ ! -r ${MOTIFHOME}/lib/libXm.so.3 ] ; then
    #    ${PRINTF} "`${GETTEXT} 'Error: Motif library %s not found.'`\n" "${MOTIFHOME}/lib/libXm.so.3" 1>&2
    #    exit 1
    #fi
    

    Remove all comment signs from 'MOTIFHOME' to 'fi' and adapt the names and/or the paths of your Motif library.

    Example :

    MOTIFHOME=/usr/X11R6/lib
    if [ ! -r ${MOTIFHOME}/libXm.so.2 ] ; then
        ${PRINTF} "`${GETTEXT} 'Error: Motif library %s not found.'`\n" "${MOTIFHOME}/libXm.so.2" 1>&2
        exit 1
    fi
    

    The Java Workshop doesn't work reliably with all Linux versions of the JDK. So far the best results were achieved with JDK 1.1.3.

• Question : The workshop stops during start-up with the message : /usr/bin/gettext: no such file or directory.

• Solution : Don't start the Java Workshop as user root.
