How can I change java version on local linux server

Question

I built my NetBeans web project with Java 1.5 successfully, however; my linux server supports / uses Java 1.4 and Java 1.5 (as well as JBoss 4.0.2). When I check the version of my project ( java -version ) it says that the current version is Java 1.4.2. However, I don't want to change the "JAVA_HOME" setting on the server because other projects need to use this version. I want my project to use Java 1.5 from the server... An idea as to how I should go about doing this? Is there a configuration that I can change? I have this error: java.lang.UnsoupportedClassVersionError: bad Version in .class file JavaScript questions and answers, JavaScript questions pdf, JavaScript question bank, JavaScript questions and answers pdf, mcq on JavaScript pdf, JavaScript questions and solutions, JavaScript mcq Test , Interview JavaScript questions, JavaScript Questions for Interview, JavaScript MCQ (Multiple Choice Questions)

Answer 1

You need Java 1.5 version installed in your Linux server. Next, run the following set of commands in your terminal/command prompt: JAVA_HOME="{fix-me}" export JAVA_HOME export PATH = $JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH In the place holder {fix-me} specify the path of Java 5 that is installed in the Linux machine. This would only temporarily set the Java version to 5 until the terminal/command prompt session is alive. So you need not worry about disturbing other projects.
