I have a problem with installation of java j2sdk 1.4.2 on 64bit linux (Ubuntu 10.04). Did anybody handle it?
uname -a
2.6.32-25-generic #44-Ubuntu SMP Fri Sep 17 20:05:27 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I run a self-extracting file
sudo ./j2sdk-1_4_2_02-linux-i586.bin
but I get
tail: cannot open `+473′ for reading:
No such file or directory
Oracle forum has no answer.
The problem is that the ubuntu tail command doesn’t understand the ‘tail +<>’ syntax. You need to edit the file, being careful not to corrupt the content that is after the 473rd line, replacing the tail command with ‘tail -n +473’ instead. This should get you past this problem.
