i am really frustated with this...i still couldnt set the environment variable... i need to set the PATH by my jdk;

i have tried the following code and put it at the beginning of the .bashrc file and also tried this code on the shell but yet no help.

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/java/JDK-1.5.0_04/bin/

still it tries to compile with gcj instead of taking the java command from the installation directory.

in the shell i have also tried with the setenv command by putting

setenv PATH /usr/java/JDK-1.5.0_04/bin/
setenv CLASSPATH $JMFHOME/lib/jmf.jar:.:${CLASSPATH}:

but it reports with 'command not found error'
now tell me what to do...

It sounds like you've got to a point half-way through this tutorial. Try following the remaining steps, and see if that works...

hey now i have succeeded setting environment variables. but still dont know how to set the Classpath...

can you tell? say i have a api at /root/software/jmf/jmf.jar
how can i include it into the class path?

please dont tell me to do anything into the .bashrc file. i have tried it already. it didnt work!

OK, now try setting it within .bash_profile :P

If you want to try manually set the variable do:
VAR=$VAR:"your value"
echo $VAR
