This normally means the class file is from a new version of Java then the virtual machine trying to run it (i.e. class files compiled under Java 1.5, but your trying to run it in Java 1.4). "java-config -L" (without quotes) will show you what virtual machines you have installed. On my machine it shows (the asterisk is the currently selected one, i.e. what will be used to run java applications): [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ java-config -L The following VMs are available for generation-2: 1) Blackdown JDK 1.4.2.03 [blackdown-jdk-1.4.2] 2) Sun JDK 1.5.0.16 [sun-jdk-1.5] *) Sun JDK 1.6.0.07 [sun-jdk-1.6] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ If the newest VM isn't selected as the default, read the man page for java-config and tell it to set the newest one as default (1.6 is the newest version).
