 FAQ-O-Matic : Linux- and Solaris-specific : Installation :
What is JBCheck and what does it do? |
| Borland uses InstallAnywhere to create all of its installers (I'm not sure about the Mac version.) ZeroG is having a hard time creating a truely portable linux installer. They seem to base it on Red Hat 6.x and hardware knowledge into the script like the path to the 'cut' command, and they assume things like 'uncompress' are present without checking first.
So, basically, every linux user who installs JBuilder on a recent distribution and/or anything with a 2.4 kernel or running KDE will have trouble with the installer and/or JBuilder's JDK. JBCheck is a perl script I (Joi Ellis, TeamB) wrote using things I've learned while helping other users get JBuilder installed properly. It looks over your machine (any distribution) and looks for stuff known to cause problems for the intaller and for JBuilder's JDK. It then gives you suggestions (as current as I can make it) for fixing the problems it finds.

JBCheck makes no changes to your machine, and you don't need to be root to run it. I haven't seen a linux distribution yet that didn't have perl on it. perl ./JBCheck 2001-Dec-14 9:15am gyles19@visi.com | |
| To use JBCheck before installing JBuilder 4, use the -4 parameter:
perl ./JBCheck -4 2001-Dec-17 7:46am gyles19@visi.com | |
