Hi everytime I try to install LimeWire I get this error message,

"Preparing to install...
Extracting the installation resources from the installer archive...
Configuring the installer for this system's environment...
No Java virtual machine could be found from your PATH
environment variable. You must install a VM prior to
running this program.""

And I have insalled java. Anybody know what to do?

If you searched the threads you would have got an answer coz it's a common question. Anyway I'll answer it for you. You need to edit you .bash_profile and add a line similar to the following;

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/java/bin

replace the path above with your java path, log ou and then log in again and try installing LimeWire. If you are installing LimeWire globally you need to edit roots .bash_profile as well.
