I have installed wowza rpm on CentOS and am trying to run it either as a standalone or as a service from SSH:
when in [/usr/local/WowzaMediaServer/bin]
I type:

Code:

  ./startup.sh

and get:

Code:

./startup.sh: line 24: java: command not found

Looks like Java is not installed. It's best to get the latest JDK here:

Thanks !
should go for:
jdk-6u18-linux-i586-rpm.bin
or for:
jdk-6u18-linux-i586.bin

?

The 2nd one should work on any linux machine. The first requires rpm.

I have installed JDK successfully but I still get the same error message. Would it matter that My wowza installation file is RPM and my JDK isn`t ?

What do you get with this command?
java -version

If it is not what you installed, try this fix:

Or try uninstalling Wowza completely and re-installing.

Code:

java -version

yields:

Code:

-bash: java: command not found
