Re: OK, I have 2 major problems

Hi Mike,

on debian like systems like Ubuntu OPENNMS_HOME is in /usr/share/opennms.
The bin folder should be there.
You can use "export OPENNMS_HOME=/usr/share/opennms" to define it.
Or "find /usr/share -name runjava" should do it.

You can find more distribution specific hints on
