Java not working now

[ArtexFx]

Hello, so when I have a vps and when I first installed java it worked fine. I got a .jar file that needed a newer version of java so I downloaded it and now java quit working. I have tried yum remove java, rebooting, everything and java still does not work. It just says unknown command.

Unknown command probably means that the java launch binary is not installed in your path.

I also am having sudden problems with java.

An attempted MultiBit launch returns:

INFO o.m.ApplicationDataDirectoryLocator - Application data directory.1 = '/home/user/MultiBit'

-deleting temp and config files for the app does not resolve BUT, will change apparent data directory:

INFO o.m.ApplicationDataDirectoryLocator - Application data directory.1 = ' '

-I have tried this with multiple java versions including:

java version "1.7.0_85"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (rhel-2.6.1.3.el6_7-x86_64 u85-b01)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.85-b03, mixed mode)

and

java version "1.8.0_60"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_60-b27)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.60-b23, mixed mode)

-I also tried the 32 bit Oracle Java version with the same result

The application data directory does exist and I have have been able to run this before.

Kernel 2.6.32-573.3.1.el6.centos.plus.x86-64

You probably need the configuration file multibit.properties
See https://github.com/bitcoin-solutions/mu ... issues/119
And don't hijack threads (start your own, they're free!)

I presume this is a Java issue because:

- MultiBit does not update on the fly, in fact the only update option is to manually update. From this one can assume that the MB software :has not changed:
- Java and or limits on Java may well change with OS updates.
- MB worked before as intended. If there is a new, sudden failure and MB has not changed, it follows that something else (Java) is the cause.
