Azureus probelm

That's probably because you used Azureus with Fedora Core 5 default java.

Azureus rely on java, and it performs horibly with GCJ. You MUST use Sun's Java to get it working properly.

Oh that would be the difference! Installing Sun's Java was one of the first things that I did, and I had no problems with azureus.

How do I tell if Auzreus is using GCJ or Sun's Java? I vaguely remember installing java from sun but it might not be setup up properly.

Check out the output of

java -version

to know which version is used.

[unchiujar]

I installed Sun's Java, and then linked java from /usr/java/jre1.5.0_09/bin/java to /usr/bin

In
/usr/bin

ln -s /usr/java/jre1.5.0_09/bin/java
ln -s /usr/java/jre1.5.0_09/bin/java_vm
ln -s /usr/java/jre1.5.0_09/bin/javaws

Now when I run Azureus it spurts out error messages.

azureus

Do I need to recompile Azureus with Sun' Java SDK ?

[antidrugue]

I installed Sun's Java, and then linked java from /usr/java/jre1.5.0_09/bin/java to /usr/bin

In
/usr/bin

ln -s /usr/java/jre1.5.0_09/bin/java
ln -s /usr/java/jre1.5.0_09/bin/java_vm
ln -s /usr/java/jre1.5.0_09/bin/javaws

Doing that is not enough : the output of

java -version

will confirm it.

You have to set the right java in /etc/alternatives :

ln -sf /usr/java/jre1.5.0_09/bin/java /etc/alternatives/java

should do the trick.

Always check the output of "java -version" to make sure.

[unchiujar]

I still have the same problem with azureus (errors).

java -version
java version "1.5.0_09"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_09-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_09-b03, mixed mode, sharing)

Worked before I did the last linking ln -sf /usr/java/jre1.5.0_09/bin/java /etc/alternatives/java

[antidrugue]

Well, must be something else then. How did you install Azureus ? Did you use the binary tarball from Azureus' site ?

[unchiujar]

It seems I hijacked this thread Hope nobody minds
I don't remember how I installed Azureus.
Delete + Reinstall then

[unchiujar]

Ok,
Deleted,
reinstalled
did not help

One thing I noticed though is that when I deleted Azureus yum said it was 20 mb in size and when I installed it, it said it is 11 mb in size. Huh? And it was the same version. Maybe I should mention I upgraded to FC6 from FC6 test4 from FC5. I didn't do a clean install.
I don't care that much about azureus, but I would like to know why it's not working.
