I am new to Ubuntu and have programmed in C in the same but java seems to be a bitof a pain. This is what -java version looks like

java version "1.6.0_27"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.12.3) (6b27-1.12.3-0ubuntu1~11.10.1)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b12, mixed mode)

My PATH environment variable is already set to

/usr/lib/lightdm/lightdm:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games

but when I try setting the JAVA_HOME and CLASSPATH variables I get a warning that says:

Gtk-WARNING **: Attempting to store changes into `/root/.local/share/recently-used.xbel',
but failed: Failed to create file '/root/.local/share/recently-used.xbel.JGX9UW': No such file or directory

I do not understand what this means.Has it got to do anything with access permissions?

Think you've already setup it. Try running

javac

If it displays any message other than can't find, you've already done that.

  • Well i was being able to compile the .java file so javac was working earlier, i could also see the .class file.It turns out out I didn't have to really set anything more as you said, because doing 'java -cp <path-of-class-file> A.class' did the trick.
