This document contains instructions for installing and uninstalling JBuilder 3 Foundation for Linux.
This version of JBuilder 3 does not contain a version of JDK 1.2.2. You will need to download the JDK from the JavaSoft website: http://www.javasoft.com.
XWindows has security restrictions that can cause a GUI application to fail
if running the application as a different user than the one logged in. One
such case is when you open a terminal window and use the "su" command to
become "root".
The error message issued is usually 'Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by
server'. This is a security feature, not a bug. To avoid this problem open
a terminal window and type the following command:
xhost +localhost
This command notifies XWindows that any user on your machine is authorized to
use your display. After the installation you can run the command:
xhost -localhost
to reset the value to the default.
Another possible side effect of this is that you will get an icon for JBuilder installed on your desktop that does work when selected. To fix this:
/jbuilder/bin/jbuilder
.
