I am running Redhat 7.2 and am trying to install a few programs. When I try to install them from the command prompt, I get an error that JRE was not found, to install it first. I have downloaded and re-installed the latest version of JRE. I have also tried installing the other programs as root, and it gives me the same error. I have verified that JRE loaded right. Any help would be appreciated. I am new at this.
