You need to have JAVA_HOME set to your JDK 1.5+ path.

[ravinder]

could u please tell how to set the path

That's outside the scope of this forum.

I have downloaded the java 1.5 from sun.com and set the path and JAVA_HOME .


java -version showing below text
[root@localhost Desktop]# java -version
java version "1.5.0_06"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_06-b05)

[root@localhost ZimbraBuild]# which java
/usr/bin/java


even it is giving the same error as given previously

[KevinH]

Did you get the JDK? OR JRE? You need the JDK.

[ravinder]

i downloaded jdk-1_5_0_06-linux-i586.rpm

[KevinH]

Not sure what you have wrong then. Like I said earlier, configuring a Java build enviroment is outside the scope of this forum.

there should be a docs folder that covers the build process.
