Unable to Get Java 1.7 Beta (PPC) to Work
Well, I found and downloaded Java 1.7 Beta for PPC and hoped I could get it to work on my G4 PPC. I want to run the Nightly version of jD because it has a plugin for a new host that I subscribed to.
After decompressing the Java 1.7 Beta tar.gz archive, I changed the folder name (merely to simplify it) and then placed it in I believe my usr/local directory.
Then I went in with Terminal to set the Export Path variables. Unless I did that wrong, it was a pretty straightforward command.
After I did so, I ran the Terminal command: java -version.
Unfortunately, when it looked at the usr/local/java1.7-macppc/bin folder, it came back with something like the following:
"couldn't locate executable in folder..."
the "Java" executable was in that folder, so I don't know what to think.
Anyone have any suggestions? drbits? Statter? Any Mac hounds out there?
