You can set the \fBJAVACMD\fP environment variable to use a specific JVM instead of the one chosen by the wrapper script. Set the \fBDEBUG\fP environment variable to 1 to get the debug output from the wrapper script. .SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES .TP .B DEBUG Set this variable to 1 to get the debug output from the wrapper script. .TP .B JAVACMD The full path to the Java Virtual Machine to use. By default, the wrapper uses \fBJAVACMD\fP; if it is not set, it looks for \fBJAVA_BINDIR\fP/java, then for \fBJAVA_HOME\fP/bin/java before looking for a java executable in the \fBPATH\fP. In the latter case, the JVM used can be configured using the Debian alternatives system (see \fBupdate-alternatives\fP(8)). .TP .B JAVA_HOME The full path where your JDK/JRE is installed. .TP .B JAVA_BINDIR The full path to the directory where the java executable is located. .TP .B JAVA_ARGS Extra command-line arguments to be passed to the Java Virtual Machine. .SH AUTHOR airport-linkmon was written by Jon Sevy . .PP This manual page was written by Julien BLACHE , for the Debian project (but may be used by others).
