ApplianceWare v.5.3 Complete FAQ – February 24, 2004 – Page 17 of 30

1.3.8 I already have a version of Java machine installed under Linux. Can I avoid
installation of additional Java machine within ApplianceView?
The things below can be only recommended for advanced users, and they may not work with
each given Linux distribution.
First of all, make sure that you have Java version 1.3.1. None of the previous Java versions
(e.g. 1.3.0) or newer 1.4.0 version and higher, will fit. Pre-releases of 1.3.1 may cause problems,
too. For installation, please use the setup_novm.bin file on Linux systems, instead of just
setup.bin. This file is located in the novm directory of ApplianceView installation CD.
1.3.9 I cannot view online help files using the ApplianceView. Browser just never starts.
What’s wrong?
ApplianceView tries to detect your browser via the environment variable BROWSER. If it is
not set up correctly, it may be not possible to launch your default web browser. In order to fix the
problem, open terminal session, change to ApplianceView installation directory, and then type the
following (below is an example for Opera browser):
export BROWSER=opera; ./ApplianceView
Alternatively, you can add
export BROWSER=opera
string into your ~/.bash_profile (if
your default shell is bash), so the environment variable will be automatically set up at the time
you’re logging in.
