Installation problem

alessa@boo:~/Dowloads$ ./jME3_SDK_Alpha-4-linux.sh

Configuring the installer…

Searching for JVM on the system…

Extracting installation data…

Running the installer wizard…

null



:frowning:

What can be wrong?

Lots of things, remember you are using Linux. Just a small list:

  • Bad graphics driver
  • OpenJDK instead of Sun JDK
  • No JDK but only a JRE installed
  • Forgot to recompile the kernel and make a raindance



    Also, what exactly does “null” mean? Is that the error output? You get a NullPointerException? You get null output on the screen? Please be more specific.

In my first message is full output of installer. As you can see - it starts, looking for JDK, etc, etc… and oops! Finish.
