Here is a work-around for installing JWSDP 2.0:
1) Make a copy of the JWSDP shell script (as a backup);
2) Edit the JWSDP shell-script with a text-editor like vi, emacs, etc.
3) Find the section that defines the cleanup() function:
4) Comment out the line that removes the jarfile; when correctly done, it should look like this:
Code:
# Cleanup function
cleanup() {
rm -f "$listfile"
rm -f "$outputfile"
#rm -f "$jarfile"
rm -f "$tmp_error_log"
if [ -n "$1" ]; then
exit "$1"
else
exit 0
fi
5) Save the file and execute the shell script; you will continue to get the same error, but ignore it;
6) The execution will have now left behind a jwsdp-2_0-unix.sh.4032.jar file in the /tmp or /usr/tmp directory (the number - 4032 - will vary for you based on the PID your process used for execution); go to that directory;
7) Extract all contents of the jar file with jar xvf jwsdp-2_0-unix.sh.4032.jar;
8.) Run the JWSDP class directly with java -cp . JWSDP
9) You should see the installation window now; if it does not work in GUI mode, use "java -cp . JWSDP -console" to install in ASCII text-mode.
10) Because of another bug in the text scripts, don't just press the Enter key for default answers when you see the prompt; type in the answer even if it is the same as the default and then press Enter - this will ensure the script sees the input and continues installation instead of silently exiting (which occurred to us many time on Gentoo).
Still i m not able to move ahead to complete the installation,
Please help me.

Further investigation reveals that if I unpack the jar file in a directory (jar xvf xxxx.jar) and change the classpath to "." instead of the jarfile, the program launches perfectly. This is definintely a bug in the classpath handling of big jar files on certain systems, or something of that sort. (Note: I'm using java sdk 6u1, 32 bit CentOS Linux.)

I've encountered the same problem on RH FC6.
If you take a look at the script you will see this line tail +368 "$0" which attempts to extract the remaining lines into a separate jar file. This line may not work on all versions of Linux. A proper way to use Linux version of tail utility is: tail -n +368 "$0". Anyways, you can manually extract the jar file if you are getting tail +368 file not found error message when running the script.
After you extract the jar file you can run it via the command line like so
java -classpath .:./tmp/jwsdp.jar -Djava.ext.dirs= -D.java.endorsed.dirs= -Dtemp.dir=/opt/java/jwsdp/tmp -Dis.debug=1 JWSDP
You should be able to install JWSDP 2.0 successfully on your Linux machine.
