please help i also dl the other
LimeWireLinux.file tgz i think and when i use terminal on the folder all i get is
alot of jars files help me with that alittle if .bin lime wire cant be fixed but really wanna use this program is for linux it should work it sucks im have problems also yes java is installed

In your home directory there should be a file called ".bash_profile" without the quotes.

use a text editor of choice (if you are using FC3 you at least have vi).

Open a terminal window and type this:

Code:

vi .bash_profile

Look for a line that looks like this:

Code:

PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin

and Edit it to look like this:

Code:

PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_06/bin

Now for this to work you need the Java Virtual Machine installed.

To do that go to java.sun.com
and download the rpm of their site.

When the rpm is downloaded install it by doing the following commands:

Code:

chmod 777 <rpm-filename-here>

./<.rpm-filename>

rpm -ivh <,rpm-filename>

Where <rpm-filename> = the name of the file you downloaded.

I used the Develpter package because I code in Java (barely). If you download the runtime environment you will need to change the line above that looks like:

Code:

PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_06/bin

To whatever the rpm adds to the /usr/java directory.

Any questions just post here, I'll answer when I can.

i have went up and down this forums and found nothing useful althought my rpoblem is posted theres no answer to the rpoblem

Hi,

we're having problems with the LimeWireLinux.bin installer. Please download the LimeWireLinux.tgz file, and install it the following way:

mkdir LimeWire
mv LimeWireLinux.tgz LimeWire
cd LimeWire
tar -xvzf LimeWireLinux.tgz

after you do this and have java installed properly as described in the above post, you should be able to run limewire by typing :

sh runLimewire.sh
