Search here for centos jre install all users   The easiest way to set an environment variable in CentOS is to use export as in    gt  export JAVA HOME  usr java jdk 1 5 0 12    gt  export PATH  PATH  JAVA HOME   However  variables set in such a manner are transient i e  they will disappear the moment you exit the shell  Obviously this is not helpful when setting environment variables that need to persist even when the system reboots  In such cases  you need to set the variables within the system wide profile  In CentOS  I   m using v5 2   the folder  etc profile d  is the recommended place to add customizations to the system profile  For example  when installing the Sun JDK  you might need to set the JAVA HOME and JRE HOME environment variables  In this case  Create a new file called java sh  vim  etc profile d java sh   Within this file  initialize the necessary environment variables  export JRE HOME  usr java jdk1 5 0 12 jre export PATH  PATH  JRE HOME bin  export JAVA HOME  usr java jdk1 5 0 12 export JAVA PATH  JAVA HOME  export PATH  PATH  JAVA HOME bin   Now when you restart your machine  the environment variables within java sh will be automatically initialized  checkout  etc profile if you are curious how the files in  etc profile d  are loaded    PS  If you want to load the environment variables within java sh without having to restart the machine  you can use the source command as in     gt  source java sh
