Hello,
I believe that Sun's Java doesnt run on 5.x.  

"The current release of the JDK and JRE available via
the FreeBSD Foundation is 1.3.1. These binaries have
been tested and certified to run with FreeBSD
4.8-RELEASE but may also work on other 4.x releases.
These binaries are not intended for use with FreeBSD
5.x, due to a binary compatibility issue we are
working with the FreeBSD release engineering team to
resolve."

Hope this helps,
Pete
