Been awhile since I played with OpenNMS but if I remember correctly you
needed to have an older version of the java sdk installed.  At the time
I think there was a garbage collection issue, the older version did it
and the newer versions did not.  

May not be the problem you are having but something to check on.

Could you have two versions installed and your paths are not pointing
the same ones?
