Mac OS X install

[macgruder]

My testing server is a Mac machine and before I buy I want to test it out but I can't get it to work at all.

I suspect I can do the Linux startup.

$ cd /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.4.2/Classes/
$ ls
charsets.jar dt.jar jsse.jar sunrsasign.jar
classes.jar jce.jar laf.jar ui.jar

On another thread you suggested this:
$ sudo java -cp lib/fcserver.jar:lib/log4j.jar:lib/jdom.jar:lib/xerces.jar:lib/mysql.jar:. com.topcmm.jchat.MainServer

But I just get this:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/topcmm/jchat/MainServer

$ ./fcserver.sh
using the fcserver.sh in http://www.swfkit.com/forum/thread_4_250_0.html

./fcserver.sh: line 78: /bin/java: No such file or directory

which is expected but I don't know what to try now.

Help would be much appreciated.

in that thread, it's for version 2.0 or lower, in version 2.1, please set:

java -cp lib/fcserver.jar:lib/log4j.jar:lib/jdom.jar:lib/xerces.jar:lib/mysql.jar:. com.topcmm.jchat.FCServer

Two things appear to be needed to install on Mac OS X. First, the instructions to modify /etc/profile won't work unless the shell is changed to bash. Open the Terminal preferences, select Execute this command... and set the value to /bin/bash. Second, the appropriate changes to /etc/profile are these:

JAVA_HOME="/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/CurrentJDK/Home"
export JAVA_HOME
CLASSPATH=$JAVA_HOME/lib/dt.jar
PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/Home/bin

Following the somewhat tedious manual editing of phpbb2 files I was able to connect to the chat server. However, the icons and text at the top of the forum page, that include the chat icon, have horizontal lines going through them so something isn't quite right.

I'm using phpbb 2.0.10 and the 3.0 demo download.
