Unable to compile currency.data missing

[guest]

Went to compile the latest version to install, and received this error. It does appear to be a java issue of some kind, not sure how to fix.

java.io.FileNotFoundException?: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/lib/currency.data (No such file or directory)

java -version

java version "1.6.0_18"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea?6 1.8.9) (6b18-1.8.9-0.1~squeeze1)
OpenJDK Client VM (build 14.0-b16, mixed mode)

I re-installed openjdk java, no luck. I did also try icedtea, but no luck, so uninstalled that as well.

I then installed i2p from aptitude, and it would not run (same error).

I saw this about a month ago over at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=640476.

Check that all of the openjdk versions are the same.

This is what I get on Debian unstable.

$ dpkg -l 'openjdk-6*' |grep ^i

If you install another java package, such as Icedtea, you'd need to update the alternatives to use the new package as the java command. That can be done with

update-alternatives --config java

Thanks for the quick response

All of the versions are the same, although obviously not as new as yours. I may have to find a way to downgrade/upgrade to a different version I guess.

update-alternatives --config java

There are 2 choices for the alternative java (providing /usr/bin/java).

  Selection    Path                                      Priority   Status

Older JVMs should be available at  http://snapshot.debian.org/, or of course you could try your luck with the sun jre (and updating it with the update-alternatives or galternatives commands).

I'm closing this since it's clearly not a problem with I2P itself and there's nothing that we can do to resolve this.
