I am installing SUbversion Edge under CentOS 7.

The first step is 

  Set the JAVA_HOME environment variable, and point it to your Java 6 JRE
  home.  For example:

  export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/default

  Test the variable:

  $ $JAVA_HOME/bin/java -version
  java version "1.6.0_20"
  Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_20-b02)
  Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 16.3-b01, mixed mode, sharing)

The problem is that /usr/java forlder not exists.

But /usr/bin/java is existing.

Have I use this folder instead? So what do I have to do?

    how did you installed java on your centos? it should be in /usr/lib/java* or /usr/lib/jvm* if installing via YUM, also centos has alternatives mechanism, allowing you to have several versions of java on same linux – antonu17 Dec 03 '15 at 13:08
  • @antonu17 I have installed it using `yum`. I am not sure which env. variable and path I have to use... Yeah... There is `usr/lib/jvm` but it has inside different folders... `JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/default` ends with default and I am not sure what is expectiong... – NoWar Dec 03 '15 at 13:09

    Ok, so you shoud not interpret instruction as final statement. It ask you to set JAVA_HOME environment variable, _For example_: export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/default. You have to set it to correct path in your system. For centos it should be `export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/jre` – antonu17 Dec 03 '15 at 13:11
  • can you attach the output of this command in your system `ls /usr/lib/jvm` – VicX Dec 03 '15 at 13:14

You should use correct Java home path in your system. If you installed Java in CentOS via YUM, then correct path should be

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/jre

You should not use /usr/bin/java as JAVA_HOME, because it is not Java home path, it is symlink to java executable.
