java in FreeBSD 7.0

[Jacob Maynard]

Peter,

You're confusion probably stems from the fact that I was not the
original owner of this thread. I jumped in after you had answered the
previous persons question as it seemed to be generally the same issue I
was having. Below are the outputs of uname and java -version

FreeBSD# java -version
java version "1.5.0"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build
diablo-1.5.0-b01)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build diablo-1.5.0_07-b01, mixed mode)


FreeBSD# uname -a
FreeBSD FreeBSD.maynard.local 7.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE #0: Sun
Feb 24 19:59:52 UTC 2008
root at logan.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  i386

Also, I burned the ports tree to disk from the installation media at one
of the ftp mirrors. I have successfully used the same media to install
java on another machine I have at work and had no problems. The work
machine was the same architecture as this box at home. Anyway, let me
know your thoughts.

Sorry, I am a bit confused now. From your first message I got the 
impression, there might be something wrong with your ports tree, 
because you wrote about missing old packages.
I can't see anything like that in your error messages.

Perhaps we hould start from the beginning and you tell us your 
correct OS version and processor architecture you are using. 
Typing
 	# uname -a
might be helpful.

Where did you get your ports tree - from RELEASE CD or 
cvsup/portsnap ?
Do you use some kind of portmanager (portupgrade/portmaster)?

You say you have got diablo-jdk installed, so
 	# java -version
should say something useful, too.

Greetings,

Uli.
