please help

You need to use the alternatives system to set up java. See

Code: Select all

man update-alternatives

This wiki page provides instructions on one way that this might be done:

This forum thread should also be helpful:
viewtopic.php?f=7&t=2569

It includes a link to this page:

most of which can be adapted to fit Mageia.

thank you now firefox works
but the application like sweet home don't start

So what did you do exactly, and what error message / output do you get when you start e.g. SweetHome in a terminal?
