serMyAdmin 1.2.5 requires Java6 to work. Several people are having some trouble installing Java6 on Debian Etch. Unfortunately, The automatic installation does not work on Debian Etch, only on Lenny. Java6 is in the backport repository. So, before running the installation, follow the procedure below.

1. Add this line to /etc/apt/sources.list 

deb http://www.backports.org/debian etch-backports main contrib non-free

2. Update the repository 

apt-get update

3. All backports are deactivated by default. If you want to install something from backports run: 

apt-get -t etch-backports install sun-java6-jdk

4. Update Java Alternatives to point Java to the right version. 

update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun

5. Check the installation using 

java -version

6. Comment the installation of Java in the standard installation procedure e try again the installation.
