installing edonkey with java

[Yttrium]

i wanted to try the GUI from edonkey so downloaded the jar-file and tried to install it:

[root@yttrium downloads]# java -jar ed2k_1.1.2.jar
current locale is not supported in X11, locale is set to CX locale modifiers are not supported, using defaultException in thread "main" java.lang.InternalError: Current locale is not supported
at sun.awt.motif.MWindowPeer.pSetTitle(Native Method)
at sun.awt.motif.MWindowPeer.init(MWindowPeer.java:9
at sun.awt.motif.MFramePeer.<init>(MFramePeer.java:5
at sun.awt.motif.MToolkit.createFrame(MToolkit.java:1 92)
at java.awt.Frame.addNotify(Frame.java:469)
at java.awt.Window.pack(Window.java:425)
at com.mm.gui.a.f.a.a(Unknown Source)
at com.mm.gui.ex.<init>(Unknown Source)
at com.mm.gui.Launcher.main(Unknown Source)
...
and then i stops, java is properly installed because i already used to make some java-thingies myself. so i thought maybe the java version aint right but it seems to be ok (its the sdk version):

[root@yttrium downloads]# java -version
java version "1.4.0_02"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0_02-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0_02-b02, mixed mode)

so if anyone knows something, let me know hehe ...

What is your locale, then? Try "unset LANG" before you start it.

already tried unset LANG and didn't work, my locale is nl_BE.utf8@euro but when i change it to en_us or POSIX i changes nothing ... and so far i found that this shouldn't affect the way your comm's work ... so i assume that java is the problem ...

OK, then. I guess it is quite mysterious. I'd probably attack the problem this way: The backtrace clearly shows that Sun has used Motif when writing the Java toolkit, so I'd download the Motif source and debug it in gdb, since it's probably (or hopefully) Motif that errors out.

[Yttrium]

yep, good idea, i'll try that one ...

[yowwww]

I got edonkey to work pretty well, check out my guide for instructions. I installed java first, but didn't have to do anything special to get edonkey going. I run it in the terminal.
