I downloaded the jdk1.1.7_ELF.V99-3-25.tar.gz and uncompressed it.
After adding the jdk1.1.7 directory to my path, I issued the following commands independently:
java filename
javac filename
jre filename
All the commands gave me the following error message:
Syntax error: "(" unexpected
What does this mean?
Thank you for any help you can provide.
