Tsunayoshi's Journal: 'Duh!' moment of the day

So I'm installing the most current JDK's from Sun on the new X4500 system we got. I copy over the tarball from my software archive, extract it, and try to run the install scripts. Get an error. Previously I had been playing with trying to strip out their UELA/License from the installer, which fails cause they have all sorts of checksums in place, so I figured I must have accidently blown away the original version. I go to Sun's site and download all the JDK's all over again, copy the over, run the installer, same error. I start messing with directory perms and setting the files 777, error.

Then it hits me: I have the SPARC JDKs and am trying to install them on an x86 server.

Duh!

For the record, this is our first x86 server running Solaris, so it never occured to me that I needed the correct binaries.
