The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

java is not installing

Asked by kayvey in FreeBSD

Tags: freebsd


BACKGROUND:

    currently, i have three bootable partitions on the 60GB HD of my laptop.. each are aroud 10GB and i have a
4th partition that is 1.052GB swap so i haven't even allocated all my disk space to partitions. the fact i have unused
space may not be relevant.   my boot manager looks like this:

    F1: FreeBSD
    F2: FreeBSD
    F3: FreeBSD
    F4:  ??

  F1 and F2 are bootable, to 6.0 and 5.4 respectively, with xfce4, while F4 is an operational NTFS running Win2Kpro from
"uncle bill" as i like to say it.  F3 is the afforementioned swap partition used by both F1 and F2.  

my friend rudy who runs an ISP helped me set up F1 and F2,  we set up F1, then i found out i couldn't run MICO, "MICO is CORBA,"
and i need to  utilize, it, as well as java for a course in the fall.  since 6.0 is not stable, that's why F2 got created.  i managed
to install F2, but rudy fixed my DHCP so i can get a wire.  also rudy made my xfce on both F1 and F2.  

i started with this background, so it will be more clear to anyone reading this, what the heart of the problem is.   when
you press "F1" at startup, the ad0s1a partition is mounted on "/" while the ad0s2a partition is mounted on "/stable"
meanwhile, if you press "F2" at startup, the ad0s2a partition is mounted on "/" while the ad0s1a partition is mounted
on "/mnt-for-6.x"  one day rudy made some links "ln" i still get confused whether they would be "-s" or "-h" (if "-h" is really
"hard")

   1)  /home/kayve   only exists in one place.. i guess in ad0s1a
    2)  same is true for /usr/ports maybe?  and probably crucial java directories


   when booted up on F1, my prompt is two lines :

                       Path: /home/kayve                                                              
                       (kayve@www) 104>

    here is what it looks like when i su to root:

                       Path: /home/kayve                                                              
                      (kayve@www) 104> su
                      Password:
                       bind: Command not found.
                       Path: /home/kayve                                                              
                       (root@www) 101>

  meanwhile, i ferget what the F2 prompt looks like but the root prompt looks like this:

                        kayvetop#


  now.. here is some stuff that was happening trying to install java...

     kayvetop# pwd
   /mnt-for-6.x/usr/ports/java
   kayvetop# cd ../distfile
   ../distfile: No such file or directory.
   kayvetop# cd ../distfiles
   kayvetop# cp /mnt-for-6.x/usr/ports/distfiles/bsd-jdk14-patches-7.tar.gz .
   cp: ./bsd-jdk14-patches-7.tar.gz and
   /mnt-for-6.x/usr/ports/distfiles/bsd-jdk14-patches-7.tar.gz are identical
   (not copied).
   kayvetop# pwd
   /mnt-for-6.x/usr/ports/distfiles
   kayvetop# pwd
   /mnt-for-6.x/usr/ports/distfiles
   kayvetop#

  => bsd-jdk14-patches-7.tar.gz doesn't seem to exist in
  /usr/ports/distfiles/.
  => Attempting to fetch from
  ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/.

  File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
  => Couldn't fetch it - please try to retrieve this
