Is /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.4.2-sun/bin/ in your path?

In what path?

type 'echo $PATH'

if java isn't there add it 'export PATH=$PATH:/usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.4.2-sun/bin/' (this is temporary, modify /etc/profile to make it permanent)

then try installing the rpm again

damn, what's wrong???

reg@linux:~> echo $PATH
/home/reg/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/bin:/usr/games:/opt/gnome/bin:/opt/kde3/bin:/usr/lib/jvm/jre/bin
reg@linux:~> export PATH=$PATH:/usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.4.2-sun/bin/
