Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Hate tripping over caffeine and not something stronger... :)
1. Look in /etc/profile and add a line like

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/java/jdk1.4/j2sdk1.4.0/bin

2. Don't use the symlink in the JAVA_PATH, reference it directly?

/usr/local/java/jdk1.4

IIRC, you shouldn't put the /bin folder in this path, but its parent.

HTH

New The reason I was using the symlink...
...was to make upgrading easier, i.e., change the symlink to point to the current version, instead of chasing down every last instance that I stuck Java here or there... Is that a bad idea?
"He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you." - Friedrich Nietzsche
New FWIW
I just installed j2sdk1.4 on my RH box last night, and it never mentioned JAVA_PATH, just JAVA_HOME and then J2EE_HOME. May be the problem? I just recommend taking out the symlink to isolate the problem better. :)
