Hi All,

I running Ubuntu Server Edition x32. I installed Wowza free edition on my machine, but when I run the “./stratup.sh” I got the following error: "

“./startup.sh: 24: java: not found”

I installed “java-common - Base of all Java packages” but the error is same.

Please help. 🙂

I resolved the issue. Package “default-jre - Standard Java or Java compatible Runtime” should be istalled on the machine.

Now it works. 🙂
