I don't use java on Linux - but here is how it works:

/usr/bin/java is a symbolic link to a file .java_wrapper, that determines
it's own name using argv[0] and gets it's own directory and sets 
JAVA_HOME. CLASSPATH will be defined in terms of JAVA_HOME and everything
works fine. If this is not working, you'll want to put printfs in the
script and debug.
