Unable to start jdev 903 with redhat 7.3

Question

Hi,
I installed jdev 902 on a redhat 7.3 box. It worked fine except i was unable to see/select the Property palette within the UI editor.
So i tried to install jdev 903 to see if it worked better. I installed jdk1.3.0_02 and change the jdev.conf to point to this jdk.
Then i typed:
/opt/oracle/jdev903/jdev/bin/jdev
... and only got that ==>
Oracle9i JDeveloper

Nothing more. No window, no startup sreen.
I tried
/opt/oracle/jdev903/jdev/bin/jdev -verbose
and got:==>

Here again nothing more.
Any idea?

Hi,
Well see and thank you for the answer: Java 1.3.0_02 is not working in my system.
Other versions of java work fine but not this one. But the way i made a mistake: the system where i installed jdev is running with RedHat 7.2.
I have reinstalled java 1.3.0_02 with no more success.Could it be a problem between rh 7.2 and this version of java? In this case is it possible to use jdev with another version of java. I tried jdev 902 with java 1.4 and remember running into display problems.
Thanks
Oscar
