Jemboss installation help?

[Mike Holloway]

Hate looking clueless, but there you go.  I'm trying to install
Jemboss as standalone on a new Redhat 8 installation.  I installed
j2sdk 1.4, and got what appears to be the new Jemboss/Emboss
installation script, and Emboss package.  The script seems to install
things OK, but the runJemboss.csh script doesn't work.  I inserted
into runJemboss.csh the lines given in the Readme:

setenv EMBOSS_INSTALL /usr/local/emboss/
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH $EMBOSS_INSTALL/lib

and run it in tcsh shell.  I get:

 Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:

which makes me think that there's something wrong with the paths for
java in the script, but I can't find anything wrong.  Seems to be
pointing to the right directory.

I've tried a number of things, but not making any headway. Any clues
appreciated.
