sun-java 6 x64 crashes

[Jaroslav Šmíd]

Binary package hint: sun-java6-jre

I'm trying to run NetBeans on Ubuntu 8.04 x64. I downloaded lates NetBeans 6.1 beta 1, but this is happening with NetBeans 6.0.1. I don't have another java application, but I don't think the problem is related to NetBeans, it looks like it is java problem.

There is output if I try to run NetBeans:

NetBeans then runs with gtk-drawed widgets. I think that default in NetBeans is to run with Metal theme, so this could be result of Metal failure.

When I export environment variable AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit and try to run NetBeans, I get:

and netbeans doesn't start at all.

I didn't test distribution's NetBeans as it depends on icedtea-java7 and gcj, and I'd rather have sun-java6 for better compatibility.

I tried distribution netbeans and it crashes as well even without exporting AWT_TOOLKIT, there is the error I get:

Thanks for submitting this bug report to make Ubuntu and Java better!

I was wondering which version of Java you are using. Even if you have sun6-jre installed you may not be using it.

Please add the output of:

java --version

This will show what version of Java you are using. It is possible that Ubuntu is using a version of Java other than Sun's version.

[Jaroslav Šmíd (jardasmid)]

It gives me error, that java was not found (it's directory is not in PATH). But I have only one java installed (in /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.0.04 with java-6-sun symlink in the same directory) and netbeans is configured to use this path as java home directory. If I run java from that directory I get

java version "1.6.0_04"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_04-b12)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 10.0-b19, mixed mode)

[jlparise (jlparise)]

If java ins't in your path this may be the problem. Netbeans needs Java to run, try adding java to your path.

Also, I made a mistake above the command should have been: java -version

Once you have the path set confirm that Sun Java is your default version to do this run: sudo update-alternatives --config java

Here is result on my machine:

jon@jon-laptop-ubuntu:~$ sudo update-alternatives --config java

There are 4 alternatives which provide `java'.

  Selection Alternative
-----------------------------------------------
* 1 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java
          2 /usr/bin/gij-4.1
          3 /usr/bin/gij-4.2
 + 4 /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/jre/bin/java

Press enter to keep the default[*], or type selection number: 1
Using `/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java' to provide `java'.
jon@jon-laptop-ubuntu:~$

The one that is called java-6-sun is the official sun version. Once you've tried that I am stumped....at that point I'll be confirming this bug.
