Can't use Java Desktop System

I've installed Solaris 10 u2 x86 and after having fought with setting up X for a month. I've now managed to get X to start on my 1920x1200 Dell monitor.
The problem is when I chose Java Desktop System, Release 3 as the session I just get kicked back to the login display.
Can someone tell me where I am supposed to look to see what's wrong?
I can login using CDE, but who want's to use that when JDS is around!
Martin

Since I stumbled onto the solution I'm sharing it here.
I logged into CDE and tried to get a web browser going, but nothing happened when clicked on the web browser icon.
Then I tried running mozilla from a terminal, but it complained about missing library libmlib.so.2. A quick search on google brought me back to these forums and a post saying "Missing libmlib.so.2 - GDM won't start".
I put the solaris 10 dvd into the cdrom and added the SUNWmlib package.
Now JDS is working

  • Where I can find and use "Java Desktop System Management Tools "

    With Solaris 10, you not only get the Java Desktop System desktop environment, but also the Java Desktop System Management Tools and a selection of free and trial Development Tools, which are available for download only.
    I found only an information about JDS release 2
    but today it's release 3 already and it's said it already integrated in JDS
    and above sentence it state that it already come with solaris 10?
    where i can find that , where i can use it
    http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-7575/6mmsrpduj?a=view
    this page said how to install but ...where I can find CD/
    regards please help

    Good question. It appears to have been installed with Solaris 11/06, as I have all of the packages listed here:
    http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-7575/6mmsrpdus?a=view
    However, it does not appear in the Java Web Console. I tried adding it using the wcadmin command, but haven't managed to get it to run as per the docs. The documentation assumes that it is already installed and visible in the Java Web Console...
    According to this documentation:
    http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-1985/6mhm8o5l6?a=view#gdjpi
    An application for the Java Web Console should have a WEB-INF directory and an app.xml file. The apoc packages come with neither, so something is missing.

  • Who else is using Java Desktop System?

    Is anyone buying this thing?

    Yes, they are! For instance, the Government of China recently signed a deal which would make the Java Desktop System one of the most widely used desktops on the planet! That's a pretty large market for your application software.

  • Can't get Java Desktop System remotely for some users?

    I have been using exceed to use XDMCP Query or Broadcast to access my Solaris server desktop. However, whenever I try to log into it as any other user it takes the username and password adn simply disappears and the exceed host selection box pops back up. Does anybody have any experience with this kind of problem??
    Thank You,

    I don't know if it helps, but you may want to look into Sun Ray Software (SRS). It's basically X with the warts removed. In fact, the Sun Ray server component runs as an X server on the local machine, then acts as an ALP server to Sun Ray clients. Note that in Sun-Ray language, the concept of client and server are reversed from that of X.
    There are dedicated Sun Ray clients (called a Desktop Unit, or DTU) and there are also so-called soft clients which act as a DTU but run under Windows.
    SRS is not officially supported yet on Solaris 11, but once it gets installed and configured, you are free of remote login troubles. I run it here in my home and have workstations set all around the house -- I have a rather large tech-savvy family. Sound, multi-head, vpn and many other X headaches are much less of an issue under SRS.
    While I am not terribly clear on the licensing, I understand it is basically free for evaluation. It probably costs less per seat than Exceed.

  • Java Desktop System Release 3 - Login problems

    Hi all,
    This is my first post here so apologies if I'm in the wrong area. I've recently installed Solaris 10 (5.10 Generic_118833-36) onto a V245. I wanted to see if I could get the gui desktop to work so I downloaded/installed Hummingbird Exceed on to my Windows XP workstation. Having launched Exceed XDMCP broadcast I could see my host in the list so I selected and clicked OK. I was instantly presented with the blue login shell, so good so far. In options, sessions I chose Java Desktop System release 3. When I tried to login as root the login shell just dies and disappears but If I use a non-root account it takes me all the way in to the desktop gui. The same thing happens if I use select CDE as the session type as well.
    So my question is how do you login as root?
    I gues it's a config file somehwere that needs a tweak but I've not been able to find anything helpful on Goolge so far.
    Any help is most appreciated.
    Thanks
    Jon Barker

    I just removed the locales using the same tool and I can log in now.
    Does anyone have any idea why this is or the correct way to install extra locales ?
    Thanks

  • How To make/configure  Broadband connection in Sun java desktop system

    Hi all,
    I am using sun java desktop system Release 3 solaris 10 version in my sun ultra workstation. I have a problem with it. I can not make broadband connection , in it. so pls let me know how can i make broadband connection with my ADSL modem ?
    Thanks
    Partha

    Try this:
    Log into a termina as rootl. (Select failsafe terminal or command login)
    To get the name of your network interface driver, type:
    /usr/sbin/ifconfig -a You'll see something like this:
    lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232 index 1
    inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
    hme0: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2
    inet 129.156.226.245 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 129.156.226.255
    In my case it is hme0 so I create a file called /etc/dhcp.hme0:
    touch /etc/dhcp.hme0If you want to set a hostname, put it in a file called /etc/hostname.hme0 for example:
    rm /etc/hostname.hme0
    echo myhostname > /etc/hostname.hme0Most broadband providers preconfigure ADSL modems to default to DHCP so if you do this, connect the ultra 10 to the broadband modem and reboot, the ultra 10 should pick up an IP address and be connected to the internet.

  • Uninstall Java Desktop System?

    Hi,
    when browsing the docs (docs.sun.com, search for java desktop system), I've a tough time in finding how to unistall the java desktop system. Also, using the prodreg package manager, I only find some GNOME packages, but nothing about jds.
    Can jds be removed (while preserving the CDE/KDE desktop managers)? If so, how?
    Thanks in advance!
    Cheers, Peter.

    There's no 'official' method of uninstalling JDS that I know of.
    You can get a list of all JDS packages using this command:
    pkginfo -c JDS3 | awk '{print $2}'
    Note that this list includes all packages delivered by the JDS team,
    including things like Python, libpng and mozilla.
    To uninstall all packages, you can feed that list into pkgrm (as root):
    sed -e 's/ask/nocheck/' /var/sadm/install/admin/default > /tmp/admin
    pkginfo -c JDS3 | awk '{print $2}' | xargs -n1 pkgrm -a /tmp/admin -n
    rm /tmp/admin
    This will uninstall all JDS packages without asking.
    Or almost all... it won't uninstall StarOffice, to uninstall that too, run
    pkgrm SUNWsogm
    pkgrm SUNWsom

  • Issue: non-root access to Java Desktop System

    Hello,
    Rookie here. i have been using Solaris 10 with no problem and accessing the GUI thru the Java Desktop system with no problem. i created a new non-root user 'user1' on the system with all default parameters assigned to the user when doing 'useradd user1'. these default parameters assume a default home directory is assigned to the user, correct? i am able to access the system with 'user1' via console and remote, but i cannot access the GUI thru the Java Desktop system with this user. It accepts my credentials then it flashes a couple of times and sends me back to the welcome log-in screen.
    Are there additional permission that i need to grant this user to access GUI via JDS? i'm able to do everything else as normal. Any help is appreciated.

    doing 'useradd user1'. these default parameters assume a default home directory is assigned to the user, correct? i am Incorrect. man useradd paying attention to -d and -m. Solaris defaults to /export/home and will usually throw an error if you try to use /home as it's controlled by the automounter.
    If it's just a test user account then userdel followed by useradd again.

  • Java Desktop System Login to Zone?

    Hi all.
    I have installed Solaris 10 (Kernel version: SunOS 5.10 Generic_137138-09) for i386. I have created a single non-global zone which runs happily and that non-global zone can be accessed with SSH remotely and locally by root. Zlogin also works for my zone. Additionally, the zone seems to be running an X server because if i "ssh -X myzone" I can run graphical applications in my zone (like xclock) from the Java Desktop System in my global zone.
    Now, what I would like to do, if possible, is to login with the full Java Desktop System to my non-global zone. When presented with the graphical login screen on the console I choose "Options" then "Remote Login" then "Choose Host From List", I see my non-global zone on the list. So I then highlight my non-global zone and click "OK". I am returned to the login screen. But it still says "Welcome to <my global zone>", and when I logon I am still in the global zone. I also tried typing in the non-global zone name in Options -> Remote Login -> Enter Host Name, but still no luck.
    So, what might I need to do to login with the Java Desktop System to my non-global zone?
    Thanks in advance!!
    John

    Is there any particular reason why you did the minimum install? I perform an "Entire Distribution without OEM SUpport" installation, and select everything except the Documentation (since there is no documentation CD - go figure) and the Java Enterprise System (since I do not need to run those servers). I do install the Companion CD which contains a lot of the software.
    When the installation is finished, the Java Desktop System is up and running, after tweaking XFree86, of course.
    Unless you are **REALLY** hurting for disk space, you might as well install the entire distribution. They claim that you need 9 GB or so, but in reality I've been able to install it on a 4 GB hard drive.
    As to where exactly it's located, I'm not sure because it's always been installed for me. If you can, reinstall with an Entire Distribution and the additional software selections that I mentioned. You'll have JDS.

  • Can't launch Java Desktop in Solaris 10 X86

    I've installed Solaris 10 for x86 with Jumpstart but I can't log on using Java Desktop--any Ideas?

    Hello,
    You can use kdmconfig.
    Let me know if it solved your issue. I have the same problem with solaris 10 b72... JDS cannot be loaded, and I come back to the login screen. But no problem with CDE.

  • Can I use Java Card Development Kit 2.2.1 on Windows XP?

    Can I use Java Card Development Kit 2.2.1 on Windows XP?
    If no, which kit supports XP?

    It is not as strait forward as per say.
    I would like to share some tips that I have learnt duirng my recent experience with Java Card Development Kit 2.1.2 ( It presumed that JAVA SDK and JCDK is properly installed:
    Additonal installation
    - you need to download Java Communicatons API version 2.o for Windows at http://java.sun.com/products/javacomm/downloads/index.html
    - unzip the downloaded file javacom20-win20.zip
    - copy comm.jar and javax.com.properties to %JAVA_HOME%\lib
    - copy win32com.dll to %JAVA_HOME%\bin
    Configuration of Environment
    - Activate System under Control Panel
    - Click Environment Variable button under Advance Tab.
    - Check that JAVA_HOME and JC21_HOME are there under User Variables for user123
    - Create a new enviroment by clicking New button under User Variables and Enter "CLASSPATH" for Variable Name and ".;c:\j2sdk1.4.1_04\lib\comm.jar for Variable Value ( the ".;" is important for the entry and varies according to your JAVA_HOME)
    Modifying %JC21_HOME%\samples\build_samples.bat
    - Next you need to modify the compiler option in build_samples.bat
    - Use editor to look for the portion "Compile Sample" and add "- target 1.1" to every statements here. A sample is listed below:
    %JAVA_HOME%\bin\javac -target 1.1 %JCFLAGS% src\com\sun\javacard\samples\HelloWorld\*.java
    You may proceed to test the demo codes as instrucrted in the User Guide.
    I hope the above will help those who are keen to have a head start in Java Card Developemnet.
