failed to launch jnlp application in 12.04 upgraded version

Asked by Pooja Saxena

Dear Experts,
I have using EVO (http://evo.caltech.edu/evoGate/) which is probably jnlp applicaion in 10.-4 version w/o any issue.
Now, I upgraded to 12.04 with the Upgrade option and it failed to launch.
I did google and probably insalled several jovaw software that now if I check the version of my java,
-------------------------
$java -vesion
bash: /usr/bin/javac: cannot execute binary file
------------------------

My firefox and other application are working all fine, but I can not launch EVO anymore.
It is causing trouble for my work.

Thanks in advance,
ps

Well everybody has execute access to all the files, should be ok. Lets try oracle's java:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-installer

Perfect, Thanks actionparsnip:-) It works fine.
I just wonder if there is any update/suggestion on my wireless issue.

Now, I can access the "Additional Driver", I am not sure if it might open
some
ways to resolve that further.

thanks again,
Pooja
