Fixed the links in the eclipse quickstart; they are probably in the netbeans one as well.

The GeoServer docs have the updated links, and also an essential workaround to get the bin installer working under Linux:

<a href="http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/production/java.html">http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/production/java.html</a>

The jai bin installer also checks for the existence of jre/lib/$ARCH before installing. Unfortunately, this prevents the installer from running on a multiarch system such as x86_64 (&quot;amd64&quot when installing JAI into an i386 (&quot;i586&quot JDK. For example, on Fedora 14 x86_64 the bin installer refuses to install JAI into a 32-bit JDK. It fails with &quot;This is not a proper JDK directory&quot;. The workaround is trivial, but not documented on the GeoServer page:

mkdir jre/lib/amd64

The imageio bin installer also fails without first running:

export _POSIX2_VERSION=199209

as documented on the GeoServer page.

In short, for Fedora 14 x86_64, in a 32-bit JDK directory:

chmod 700 jai*.bin

mkdir jre/lib/amd64

export _POSIX2_VERSION=199209

./jai-1_1_3-lib-linux-i586-jdk.bin

./jai_imageio-1_1-lib-linux-i586-jdk.bin

rm -f jai*.bin
