I tried running the .sh file and got this:

For help, type 'jwsdp-2_0-unix.sh -help'
 
Using /var/tmp as temporary directory...
Searching for Java(TM) 2 Platform, Standard Edition...
tail: cannot open `+368' for reading: No such file or directory

Could not find the main class: JWSDP. Program will exit.

does it need to be in a particular directory?

tail --bytes=+368 ./jwsdp-2_0-unix.sh > jwsdp.jar
unzip jwsdp.jar
java JWSDP

If you run the jwsdp install script as shown below.

sh jwsdp-2_0-unix.sh -is:debug 1

it will print the reason why it fails. In my case the output is:

com.jxml.quick.QPE; lineNumber: 0; columnNumber: 0;  java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:  sun.beans.editors.BoolEditor

followed by a stack trace.

In my computer, the install script is detecting and using OpenJDK 6 to run the JWSDP installer. Unfortunately it seems to rely on this sun.beans.editors.BoolEditor class which is not part of the Java API. The rt.jar shipped with OpenJDK 6 includes sun.beans.editors.BooleanEditor but not BoolEditor.

My solution was to tell the installer to use Sun JDK 5 to run the JWSDP installer, as follows.

sh jwsdp-2_0-unix.sh -is:javahome /etc/alternatives/jre_1.5.0

If needed, replace /etc/alternatives/jre_1.5.0 with your Sun JDK 5 home directory.
