jchem installation

Hello,





I am a Linux user and I just downloaded JChem and installed it but I got the following error when executing molconvert:





./molconvert -h


Exception during runtime initialization


java.lang.NullPointerException


<<No stacktrace available>>





Does anybody know what is wrong with my installation? I've also installed jdk1.5.0_05 and added it to the PATH environment variable.

Hi,





Presumably you are unwittingly using an other Java, not the one from Sun.





You can check this with the following commands:

Code:

java -version

or

Code:

which java

or

Code:

echo $PATH

The items in the PATH are found in the order of the list.


You should move the Sun Java installation at the front of the list.





Best regards,





Szilard

Thanks, you are right. Now it works.





greetings,


Villy
