[Biojava-l] Setup problems on Linux

[Bornman, Daniel M]

Dear Listers,

I am having problems getting my biojava-1.4 set up on my linux machine.
I have java2-sdk-1.4.2 working just fine.  I also have a working install
of biojava on my windows machine so I'm surprised to have ran into such
a problem.

I put all the .jar files in a directory '/usr/local/biojava' and set the
permissions to each of the .jar files to 755.  I am using a bash shell
so I inluded a command in my bash_profile to inlcude the jar files in
the CLASSPATH variable.
(i.e. export
CLASSPATH=/usr/local/biojava/biojava-1.4.jar:/usr/local/biojava/blah
blah blah...)

Also, mozilla browser forced the jar files to be saved with a .zip
extension. So I downloaded a .zip version and a .jar version of each of
the jar files and tried each of these extensions set in the bash_profile
with no luck. Argh!

Does someone have an idea of what I can try next???
