What happens if you type "which javac" -- do you get /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1_01/bin? If not, check that Java is
actually installed in this location.

One way of fixing this problem is to edit the makegli.sh file and specify the path of your Java SDK. Find the
lines

## ---- Check Javac exists ----
javacpath=

and enter the path of the javac executable:

## ---- Check Javac exists ----
javacpath=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1_01/bin

Then save and try again.
