What were you trying to do?
Run /usr/bin/java
What's wrong:
All the java* programs in /usr/bin are symlinks into /usr/java.
On 8.4.15 machines, /usr/java is a symlink to /usr/java1.1 (There's also
a /usr/java1.2 which I suppose you have to put in your path explicitly).
On two 8.4.17 machines, xcb and bobbi-harlow, the /usr/java -> /usr/java1.1
symlink is missing, and thus java in the path fails.
What should have happened:
I should get a java 1.1 interpreter.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
