Java symbolic links broken on Fedora 19

0 votes
289 views

I have a system that I upgraded from Fedora 18 to 19 recently and I just installed eclipse, but it says that there's no JVM when I try and run it. I noticed that /usr/bin/java is a symbolic link to
/etc/alternatives/java which is then a symbolic link to
/usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.7.0-openjdk/bin/java but it's actually installed at
/usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.7.0-openjdk.i386/bin/java.

Is this an issue from the update from Fedora 18 to 19? Or is it an issue with the packages in Fedora 19?

Seems this started with java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.25-*
run alternatives --config java
then choose your openjdk version path

After migrating to Fedora-20 /var/log/messages file is missing?

I am migrating from a Fedora 19 to a Fedora 20 host. I used the Fedora 20 live disk to install on the new machine. I have most things transferred over and working, but curiously I don't have any messages or mail log files in /var/log as I do in the F19 host:

Fedup issue with thunderbird after to fedora upgrade?

I upgraded to fedora 20 from fedora 19 using fedup. Everything went well except for some weird issues with Thunderbird. The latter is now giving me a pile of weird permission errors and disk space errors. There is 250GB free space, so I know that is not the problem. Obviously this has something to do with the permissions on the thunderbird folder, but I do not have the knowledge to rectify the problem.

Please suggest how to proceed?

Transmission daemon does not start on Fedora 19

I'm having trouble starting transmission-daemon. When I try to start it with systemctl, it hangs:

 # systemctl start transmission-daemon.service

If I let it be for a few minutes (~5), it finishes with a failure. The log is extremely unhelpful. This is very strange because it was working just fine until a few days ago.
