JavaScript installation of JAVA version 2 (JRE 1.3)

New Coder
Hello everyone,

I am new here and a beginner,

I want to install fudaa-refonde and for this purpose I need to install JAVA version 2 (JRE 1.3) on ubuntu 18 LTS. This is an old version of JRE and I am a bit lost on the oracle website.

Thanks for your Help

DO NOT INSTALL AN OUTDATED JRE VERSION!

Java(and older versions in particular) are infamous for their security problems(e.g. applet exploits). You'll leave yourself vulnerable to exploits if you go ahead with an oldet version, plus, compatibility problems with other Java programs which use newer Java features.

I understand you want to use this program, whatever it does, but can you not use it with a more recent JRE? No Java program should need to depend on such an outdated JRE, not now and not in the future.
 
oh thank you so much for the warning!!!

I don't know if I can use a more recent JRE for using this software fudaa-refond as there is no forum for this software. I think I can try to install with a newer version and let's take a look of the results.
 
I seem to remember the Java VM has a setting to allow execution of older Java code. I believe it is (or was, anyway) one of the Java core policies to never break existing software.
 
Hi everyone

Thx cbreemer , and sorry for just replying now to your message , but I was tired to fail installing the software... Fudaa refonde. Maybe if I post the install procédure someone can help. The install procedure is in french so if I post a Google translation of that it can not be excatly the exact translation.
 
Installation sur Linux

Pour pouvoir lancer l’application, il faut disposer sur la machine d’accueil d’une machine virtuelle JAVA

NOTA : <xxx> correspond au numéro de version de Fudaa-Refonde. Exemple <xxx>=506
Suivez les instructions de la procédure d'installation :
• Si vous avez procédé à une installation par défaut du JRE, vous devez avoir à l'écran quelque chose
comme :
Info: using /tmp/ as temp directory.
No Java VM found.
Enter path of java VM:
>
Entrer le chemin jusqu'à la machine virtuelle java. Par exemple : /usr/lib/java/bin/java

• Choose an installation directory. (In the rest of the notice, this directory is designated by).
 
What exactly is the problem now ?
And isn't there a newer version of your Fuuda Refonde software ? Installing 20 years old stuff is quite a recipe for trouble... Ubuntu did not even exist then !
