Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: visualvm
On a default installation of Ubuntu 10.10 the OpenJava JRE is installed.
Install the Sun JDK from the Ubuntu repositories and the Java monitoring
tool VisualVM is bundled with it. VisualVM requires a JDK and does not
work with a JRE installation of Java. The launch script for VisualVM
(/usr/bin/jvisualvm) contains a line that checks for a JDK,
line 13: for j in /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun;
do
This line fails to find the Sun JDK but instead attempts to launch
VisualVM using the OpenJava JRE. VisualVM fails to launch and presents a
popup dialog asking for a valid JDK.
By switching the order of the "Sun" and "Open" paths in line 13 the
problem is fixed and VisualVM loads correctly.
for j in /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk; do
The Ubuntu package is: visualvm version 1.3-0ubuntu2
** Affects: visualvm (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
