Hi Java fans,
        I've been trying to get the Java Web Server and HotJava
browser working in Linux without too much success. I've downloaded
all the packages and patches from www.blackdown.org and installed
per the instructions. With the HotJava browser I get a segmentation
fault, and with the server it appears to run the statup script
but nothing happens and no server process actually starts running.
        Has anybody gotten these to work, or had similar problems
to me? Thanks for any sugestions,
                Ken.

Hi-

I got the seg fault with HotJava, and in a big rush, I just patched
together this shell script which seems to work OK for me:
----------

#!/bin/sh
# 6-15-97 My best shot at a HotJava script!
export JAVA_HOME=
HOTJAVA_HOME=/usr/local/HotJava1.0
export CLASSPATH=.:/usr/local/HotJava1.0/lib/classes.zip
JAVA=/usr/local/jdk1.1.1/bin/java
exec $JAVA -noasyncgc -ms4m -mx32m -Dhotjava.home=$HOTJAVA_HOME
-Dwww.home=http:
//www.yahoo.com sun.hotjava.Main > /dev/null 2>&1 &
---------
Coupla things which account for the tacky nature of this script: I have
still got JDK 1.0.2 in the java directory, so I use the JDK 1.1.1 by
executing things from the jdk1.1.1 directory, after setting JAVA_HOME=
(nothing).

I have also put a line in the .java_wrapper, which echoes "using jdk1.1"
so I know which version of Java I am using, as I am an easily confused
person.

Hope this helps.

Anyway, I got HotJava running by upgrading said libraries.  I did not find
it usable.  It renders pages well, but when you try to use the scrollbar
it freaks out.

I have gotten so fed up with Hotjava and netscape* with trying to
get them to work under linux.... Seg faults and* my window
manager under RedHat linux.

Now I know why I like src code. I can at least try to track the
problem down. Things are so bad, that I use my NT box for browsing
and reading mail, stuff that I download I ftp my linux box.
And for reading man pages (everybody now seems to use .html pages) I
am still looking for a primitive html reader....

re html
Try  look for lynx you might have it already.

This worked for me  lynx  file.html
