Do I have a Java problem ?
Hi again,
I'm sorry to disturb you experts again, but I really want to learn more about Linux so I have installed a Fedora Core 6 to play with. (learned a lot already ![]() I have also installed SageTV without any obvious problems. But when I start my Client from an Windows pc, he detects the server but says: "An exception occurred in Java: Java.lang.NullPointerException". When I start my Linux Client at the same machine where the server is running, is the GUI completely empty. Any idea of in which direction I should look for the problem? Regards: Michael |

Missing Java or path?
I had similar errors when I didn't have the path set for the JRE. Assuming that you have IVTV (or whatever it is that you use to encode) installed properly:
1) Grab the latest JRE from java.sun.com (it might be called JSE-something). 2) Run it in your home directory. It'll create a directory called "jre-something". For simplicity, rename it to "jre" 3) Edit your .bashrc to include "export PATH=/home/yourhomedir/jre/bin:$PATH' 4) If you run the server as root, repeat step #3 for the root .bashrc 5) Try running the server and client again - joat |
