Phex (win)setup for the java illiterate, like myself...

#1 (**permalink**) May 16th, 2001

I'm clueless about Java [the real problem] and the setup didn't work quite as mentioned on KH's site.
He's got a link for the required Java software: [JRE1.1.8]
http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/jre/index.html

but what you really need is:[Java2RE]
http://java.sun.com/j2se/

After installing the first [JRE118], the 'java -jar phex.jar' command was not recognized. After getting Java2E into place everything was gravy!

PS: Phrex kicks Limewire's butt.

I used the latest version of Java Runtime (v 1.3.1 ... i think).

All I need to do was double click on the phex.jar and it runs.

(however, i had to undo the file association of *.jar to powerarchiver first)
