Re: Nightly build for linux?

It shows 2.7.0, but I'm using the tarball. So for instance, I have extracted it to /opt/spark2. So I cd to that directory and run `bash ./Spark`. The user profile is then created in "/opt/spark2/?/.Spark". So for multiuser systems the profile is not unique, and owned by whichever user creates the directory first. And in a directory called "?".

I'm going to try the deb file now.

edit: The deb file requires sun-java6-jre. So I unpacked the deb and changed it to require oracle-java6-installer. After installing and running the binary I get:

using classpath: /usr/share/spark/lib/jdom.jar:/usr/share/spark/lib/log4j.jar:/usr/share/spark/l ib/lti-civil.jar:/usr/share/spark/lib/fmj.jar:/usr/share/spark/lib/startup.jar:/ usr/share/spark/lib/linux/jdic.jar:/usr/share/spark/resources

Could not find the main class: org.jivesoftware.launcher.Startup.  Program will exit.

Java version:

java -showversion

java version "1.6.0_45"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_45-b06)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.45-b01, mixed mode)

So it looks like the deb package is outdated, I'm pretty sure they deprecated/removed sun-java6-jre from the Ubuntu repositories awhile ago due to licensing issues.
