I recently installed subsonic, which has a Java dependency. The www/subsonic port installed Java.
Unfortunately, this (or something else I did) broke CrashPlan (which uses the Linux Java in the java/linux-sun-jre16 port).
I had to take a few unexpected steps to fix this.
Namely:
Re-install linux-sun-jre16
I’m not sure if this was necessary, but I did it to make sure that the Linux Java didn’t get over-written by the native Java. It didn’t. Linux Java installs in a different directory (see below).
Link the linux java to the Linux compat directories
The Linux Java gets installed in /usr/local/linux-sun-jre1.6/. However, the /compat/linux/bin/bash shell will pick up the native java. I have no idea how this all worked before I installed native Java, but I linked all the java files to the compat linux bin directory:
ln -s /usr/local/linux-sun-jre1.6/bin/* /usr/compat/linux/usr/local/bin
Fix up Java class paths
For whatever reason, CrashPlan would start at this point but would not be able to load jtux. I added the following to the CrashPlanEngine script (in /usr/compat/linux/usr/local/crashplan/bin):
FULL_CP=”${TARGETDIR}:${TARGETDIR}/lib/com.backup42.desktop.jar:${TARGETDIR}/lang”
Basically, it was missing the direct /lib directory. Again, I’m not sure why this wasn’t a problem before.
