Got it!<br>
I defined JAVA_HOME:<br>
$ export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.10<br>
<br>
and ran:<br>
$ sh ArcExplorer.sh<br>
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
com/esri/ae/AE<br>
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.esri.ae.AE<br>

Could not find the main class: com.esri.ae.AE.  Program will exit.<br>
<br>
I googled the error and found the solution and ran:<br>
$ sudo mv /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/lib/ext
/home/ubuntu/Downloads/ArcExplorer/lib<br>
b$ sudo chown -R ubuntu /home/ubuntu/Downloads/ArcExplorer/lib/ext<br>
<br>
edited ubuntu /home/ubuntu/Downloads/ArcExplorer/lib/ext<br>
as per the post:<br>
ArcExplorer/bin/aejava
<br>
change the line:
<br>
JARHOME=$AEJHOME/lib
<br>
to:
<br>
JARHOME=$AEJHOME/lib/ext
<br>
Save it and now you should able to run the:
<br>
~/Downloads/ArcExplorer/ArcExplorer.sh <br>
<br>
And it runs!!<br>
<br>
Thanks everyone. I couldn't have figured out the variables, much less
running the darn thing!<br>
If anyone wants the post with the fix, after setting the env variables,
it's: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://forums.esri.com/Thread.asp?c=24&f=199&t=208888">http://forums.esri.com/Thread.asp?c=24&f=199&t=208888</a><br>

Something is weird.....<br>
I seem to have gotten the variables right. the documentation for
ArcExplorer says to start the program by running "aejava" and here's
what happens:<br>
  <br>
$ aejava<br>
bash: aejava: command not found<br>
ubuntu@ubuntu:~/Downloads/ArcExplorer$ ls<br>
ArcExplorer.sh  bin  Disk1  fonts  Help  lib  UninstallerData  Xenv<br>
  <br>
So I run:<br>
  <br>
ubuntu@ubuntu:~/Downloads/ArcExplorer$ sh ArcExplorer.sh<br>
  <br>
** JAVA_HOME must be defined<br>
  <br>
This is after installing the software by running the installer that the
download included:<br>
sudo sh SetupArcExplorer.sh<br>
  <br>
(I run as sudo as I need to have write capability to my jre directory)<br>
  <br>
I don't know-too much for me<br>
  <br>

        <pre wrap="">Thanks Brendan. I'm pasting the syntax corrections as I understand you 
(which is a stretch given my experience with this!). Is this correct?

export AEJHOME=home/ubuntu/Downloads/aej90exe
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$AEJHOME/lib
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/aejhome/bin

      <pre wrap=""><!---->If I am not mistaken, your entry for AEJHOME appears incorrect, in that 
I believe you want to prepend a "/", e.g.

export AEJHOME=/home/ubuntu/Downloads/aej90exe

for what is called and "absolute path" instead of a relative path.

export AEJHOME home/ubuntu/Downloads/aej90exe
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH $AEJHOME/lib
export PATH= $PATH:/usr/local/aejhome/bin

          <pre wrap="">The syntax is "export NAME=value".  Note there's an = between the name 
and the value, and there is no space at all.  Add = signs, remove your 
spaces and try again.

FWIW, you could switch your shell to csh or tcsh if you have that 
installed.  Use the chsh command to change shells.
