Java 1.3.1 - execute permission denied

Frank Zecca — Mon, 29 Sep 2003 13:46:21 GMT

Hello,

I just installed Java 1.3.1 on HP-UX 11.11 and get an error when issuing any java commands. For example, java -version returns:

sh: java: Execute permission denied.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Frank

My guess is you have a script called jave in your PATH that doesn't have execute permission for you.

Try running "/opt/java1.3/bin/java -version" and see if that works. If it doesn't then something went a bit awry during your install.

Use swverify to validate the installation.

id

Is the user and group permissions compatible with the binaries.

Next, look at the envrionment variables.

Thanks for the pointers Mark and Steven. It turned out to be my PATH variable. It wasn't set to include /opt/java1.3/bin. Thanks again for fast responses. I'll be assigning points after this reply.
