Using JES-EÜR (german tax report generator for freelancer) with Solus...

schnettl

Just a hint for using JES-EÜR on Solus (and maybe some other distros).

The Problem:
The html report wont show up in browser.
After starting the program via sudo ./jes.sh the normal gui will show up, you can use the program, but no report will be generated. Nothing happens when clicking on the Button.

Solution:
Use sudo java -jar jes.jar to start the program. It then works flawless.

Took me a while... 🙂

schnettl If any one can't execute with sudo then you need to set the path

find a java installation path in terminal
readlink -f $(which java) (normally you will find in /usr/lib64/jvm/jdk******)
in terminal sudo visudo find Defaults secure_path and append the java bin path
ex :
old Defaults secure_path="/usr/sbin:/usr/bin/:/sbin:/bin"
new Defaults secure_path="/usr/sbin:/usr/bin/:/sbin:/bin://usr/lib/jvm/jdk**/bin"
Ctrl+X and type Y to save

now you can execute sudo java

attached before and after path (use your version of jdk 🙂 )

after
