Hi Priya,
You need to set the PATH and CLASSPATH environment variables. How you set them depends on what (login) shell you are using. If you are using Bourne (sh), Korn (ksh) or BASH (bash), then you can type the following command:

 export PATH=${PATH}:<path to java> 

and replace "<path to java>" with the full path of the directory where the "java" executable is located. Use similar syntax for setting CLASSPATH.
For example, on my SUN [sparc] with Solaris 7, <path to java> is:

/usr/java/bin</CODE]
If you are using C-Shell (csh) or T-C-Shell (tcsh), the the syntax is:
[CODE] setenv PATH ${PATH}:<path to java> 

Of-course, I don't know how much experience you have with Solaris, so I don't know if the above is sufficient for you (or not).
Hope this helps.
Good Luck,
Avi.
