[389-users] 389-console yields error after frest Centos 7 install

[Janet Houser]

Hi Folks,

I just created a Centos 7 VM (CentOS release 7.6.1810) and did a yum 
install of the epel directory:

       yum install 
https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm


and an install of 389-DS:

       yum install 389*


I ran setup-ds-admin.pl as a stand alone system (this is a test 
machine).   After the installation, I ran the following

     VERBOSE=1  /usr/bin/389-console

which yielded an unfamiliar error:

    /usr/bin/build-classpath: Could not find slf4j-api.jar Java
    extension for this JVM
    /usr/bin/build-classpath: error: Some specified jars were not found

I've built two test systems in the past, the most recent being in March 
of this year, and I've never seen this error before.  My other two
systems don't show the apache-sommons-codex.jar and the 
apache-commons-lang.jar file in the classpath and one of the systems is 
at the same
CentOS release as this new server.


I'm searching info about java and 389-DS to see if I need to add 
something to the system but I haven't had any luck yet.  I'm sure there 
is a simple
fix and I'm overlooking the obvious.

The java packages between the systems look the same so I'm not quite 
sure why the clean build is looking for this jar file.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
