to run certain J2EE application servers, one will need to "fix" the JDK on Mac OS X such that the server can recognise that /Library/Java/Home is a valid JAVA_HOME.

to address this, execute the following (assuming one is not root):

sudo mkdir -p /Library/Java/Home/jre/bin

sudo mkdir /Library/Java/Home/jre/lib

cd /Library/Java/Home/jre/bin

sudo ln -s ../../bin/java

cd ../lib

sudo ln -s ../../../Classes/classes.jar rt.jar
