Old Java quicky

Philip Dunn_1 — Thu, 16 Mar 2006 06:11:24 GMT

Hi to all,
Hope everyone is having a good day?

Just a quick question, I have a server running HPUX PARISC 11.11. Installed is Java 1.4 SDK, I've have had a request to install SDK 1.3.

I've searched the FAQ's and forum entrys such as http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=1006905
just wanted to double check that this wouldn't screw anything up with the later version of Java?

Thanks

Phil

It will not. I have different versions of java. It installs into a seperate directory.

drwxr-xr-x 4 root sys 96 Apr 18 2002 /opt/java1.2
drwxr-xr-x 7 root sys 1024 Apr 18 2002 /opt/java1.3

Hello Phil,

Nope, It wont affect anything. You can use both versions simultaneously.

Phil,
depending on which version of java a user need, you can then set an alias or create links.
