Application: SAP GUI in 8.04

You said this is a Java application. Can you check the version of Java you are using ('java -version' will tell you this), and compare to the java you were using in 7.10?

On a guess, I would think that the problem might be that your SAP application won't work with a Java which is not from Sun. The package containing the Java from Sun is 'sun-java6-bin'.

You can try different Java runtimes by using 'sudo update-java-alternatives. Use 'sudo update-java-alternatives -l' to get a list of the javas you have installed, and 'sudo update-java-alternatives -s [name]' to select one.

Hi Alex,

I am using the same SUN Java versions I had with 7.10.

I show you the result of the command you said me:

# sudo update-java-alternatives -ljava-1.5.0-sun 53
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun
java-6-openjdk 1061 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk
java-6-sun 63 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun

I tried also to install an older version such as SUN-java 1.4.2, but there
is a conflict between xulrunner-1.9 and j2re1.4.

Any suggestion?

Thank you in advance.

Can you please double-check which java is in use, by running 'java -version', and enter the results back here?

Ok Alex,

I am sending you here:

:# java -version
java version "1.6.0"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-b09)
OpenJDK Client VM (build 1.6.0-b09, mixed mode, sharing)

I hope it helps.

Thanks.

OK, that is the OpenJDK Java 6.

You'll need to switch to Sun Java 6.

Run 'update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun'. This should switch the version of Java used on your system. Once you've done that, try running the SAP gui again.

Yes Alex!

It works!

Thank you for your help!

Best Regards.

I still can not get the sapgui to work even with Alex's suggestion. This is a significant problem. Can any Ubuntu engineers respond please.

I have a similar problem mentioned by "Don hardaway" . SAPGUI installed alright but when i try to connect to a system, it immediately gives this java error. I am running ubuntu 8.04 64 bit.
