Hi,luisalvaradox.
I got same error.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. install DEB package from Download section
2. Try to execute Webcamstudio
3. It will not work
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It should open the program

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
webcamstudio_0.57beta4_all.deb on Ubuntu 12.04 64 Bit

Please provide any additional information below.

Error: /usr/bin/webcamstudio: line  45: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/java: No 
such file or directory

This issue causes that your and my machine does not have the appropriate 
directory.
Appropriate directory is /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-(i386|amd64)/bin/java,isn't it?
From Ubuntu12.04, it seems to be appended architecture name, such as i386 or 
amd64, to the directory of OpenJDK's Java VM.

So I write this issue patch.
This patch fix two issue.
One is to determine appropriate architecture name.(e.g. i386 or amd64)
The other is fix JAVA_DIR path.

Cheers.
Hiro.

Hi, luisalvaradox.

I'm apologize to write a low-quality patch.

It seems to be appropriate "uname -m" than "uname -i" to determine architecture.
Because lately "uname -i" command output GenuineIntel or AuthenticAMD and so on.

'uname -m' is always output architecture name, such as i386 or x86_64 or armel 
etc.

I rewrote "uname -i" to "uname -m".

Hi, madpuppi.
>after I download the patch where do I place it, which file

Please put patch where you like anywhere,for example, put in $HOME.
Then, type following command:
sudo patch `which webcamstudio` < (The directory where you placed 
patch)/diff_webcamstudio_uname.patch

Hello,

 I had the same problem with the JAVA directory. When I try to apply patch as explained in Comment #8 by Cosmo, I receive the following output: 

 patching file 'which webcamstudio'
Hunk #1 FAILED at 4.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file 'which webcamstudio.rej'

Ok... sorted. I just edited the webcamstudio file directly, instead of using 
the patch. thanks!

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install Ubuntu 10.04 64bit
2. Install WebcamStudio
3. Upgrade to Ubuntu 12.04 64Bit

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It should open the program

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
webcamstudio_0.57beta4_all.deb on Ubuntu 12.04 64 Bit

===First Error 
$ webcamstudio

Hi, neuman1.
>== If this cannot be resolved,  can webcamstudio be installed at all on Ubuntu 
12.04 64bit?
No. If this error cannot be resolved, you cannot run webcamstudio on Ubuntu 
12.04 64bit. You needs to resolve error.

First Error says that "/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/java" directory not found 
your computer.
Second Error says that patch command cannot resolve hunk at 4.

There are two solutions.

One is rewrite directly the JAVA_DIR=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/ to 
JAVA_DIR=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/bin/ or 
JAVA_DIR=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/bin.

The Other is modify diff_webcamstudio_uname.patch.

Could you attach your rej file?
And what happens in this new diff_webcamstudio_modify.patch?

====
Just an FYI.  I had originally tried to install WCS directly to 12.04 before, 
But I was getting an error with the install.   You can see my original post on 
the Ubuntuforums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2055935       It 
appeared to be an issue with videodev.h not being compiled with my kernal.   So 
thats when I reinstalled ubuntu 10..installed webcam and upgraded.  I was 
hopping that the issue would be resolved during the upgrade.

It seems to be fail to install webcamstudio in kernel module compile phase.

What is displayed when you run the following command?:
$ sudo /etc/init.d/webcamstudio restart

Please try reinstall Webcamstudio.

When I originally installed webcamstudio I kept getting the error 
/usr/bin/webcamstudio: line 42: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/java: No such file 
or directory
then when I applied the patch I get /usr/bin/webcamstudio: line 59: 
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/java: No such file or directory
or /usr/bin/webcamstudio: line 65: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/java: No such 
file or directory

I assumed the patch would have changed every line of /usr/bin/webcamstudio that 
associated with /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/java... Any ideas to lead me in the 
right direction?

Yes, in part.
This patch modifies /usr/bin/webcamstudio line 12 from line 7.

>Any ideas to lead me in the right direction?
In Ubuntu 12.04, sun-java6 is no longer provided.
Please install openjdk-7-jre or openjdk-6-jre or oracle-java7-installer.

When you install the oracle-java7-installer, the following special steps are 
required.

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-installer

Tried all this....still not working in Linux Mint 14.  I really wish this 
program worked easily in latest versions of Ubuntu/Mint.  I have had same issue 
with this program and Ubuntu 12.04/12.10 and Mint 14.  I also wish there was 
another decent application like this for Linux.  I would support development 
through kickstarter.

I had also experience with non working WebcamStudio 0.57_beta 4 on ubuntu 12.04 
and 12.10 both 64bit - first issue was of course the wrong java path (because 
of my 64bit system) - like comment #14, however there was another one: missing 
file libwebcamstudio.so.1.0.1 - every solution I've seen was wrong, so there's 
my fix for this problem(you have to unpack the .deb file):

cd /usr/share/webcamstudio/webcamstudio-src
mkdir /tmp/webcamstudio-src
cp * /tmp/webcamstudio-src
cd /tmp/webcamstudio-src
make
make install
depmod -a
gcc -c -fPIC libwebcamstudio.c -o libwebcamstudio.o    

gcc -shared -o libwebcamstudio.so.1.0.1  libwebcamstudio.o //this line can be 
found on the whole internet with -Wl parameter which actually doesn't work 
there, but here goes the missing file finaly

cp libwebcamstudio.so.1.0.1 /usr/lib
cd /
rm -R /tmp/webcamstudio-src

So, I hope this helps someone.

Please try our 0.60 and up versions... The current SVN r443 should work for 
you...

You may also use our LP daily builds PPA
