Can I use OpenJDK December 6, 2011 7:12AM UTC
Iannis Avramopoulos 4 Posts	Hello, I have some problems in some of my simulations and I'm wondering if they occur due to the fact that I do not use Sun java. A novice question I know, but just to be sure. I'm using Ubuntu 11.10 32 bit and OpenJDK Runtime Environment. In terminal I give " java -version" and the response is: "java version "1.6.0_23" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.11pre) (6b23~pre11-0ubuntu1.11.10) OpenJDK Server VM (build 20.0-b11, mixed mode)" Is it OK with Ejs?

Francisco Esquembre 237 Posts	Hi Iannis, It should work, but I am not 100% sure. Could you please do the following? 1.- Open a console/terminal window 2.- Go to the EJS directory 3.- Type "java -jar EjsConsole.jar" And see if it produces any error message. If so, please copy it and send it to me directly to fem@um.es or post it here. Paco Login to reply \| Condense

Iannis Avramopoulos 4 Posts	Hello and thank you both for your feedback. I checked it and it seems that it has nothing to do with java version. I will post a question regarding my simulations in another thread. Iannis Login to reply \| Condense
