So I run Linux exclusively and I'm trying to get indexing to work. Unfortunately I'm rather clueless as to how to get it to actually run. I've downloaded a script from familysearch.org using wget: wget https://indexing.familysearch.org/downloads/Indexing_unix.sh But the script bombs out checking for Java (I do have openjdk 1.8) jeremy@main:~/geneaology$ ./Indexing_unix.sh ln: failed to create symbolic link '/home/jeremy/geneaology/jre/bin/*': No such file or directory No suitable Java Virtual Machine could be found on your system. The version of the JVM must be at least 1.6 and at most 1.6. Please define INSTALL4J_JAVA_HOME to point to a suitable JVM. You can also try to delete the JVM cache file /home/jeremy/.install4j jeremy@main:~/geneaology$ java -version openjdk version "1.8.0_91" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_91-8u91-b14-3ubuntu1~16.04.1-b14) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.91-b14, mixed mode) I'm not sure if I need to edit the script so I can fake out the java check or.... I just don't know.

Hi there, I'm Maureen, from CT, been a member for very long time.... veeerrryy looooong tiime, and now my husband decided to take the bis step, we hope to be sealed by April 2011 we have two kids... kid one and kid two Kid one is 14 years old and going to technical school Kid two is a princes/brat/screaming-monster thing that will be the death on my husband and I, and with only 6 years I'm ready to send her to college. I'm from San Jose Costa Rica, my husband from New York, and I've been in the states for almost 18 years. I was introduced to the church when I was 12 by two very handsome missionaries who used to visit my father who became member before me, the charming young guys got me at hello but out of all that they said I was capture by the beauty of the Salt Lake Temple (which I never seen in person) and the eternity of families. Little that they knew I came to be a part time missionary for the Family Search and Church History Dep. and I've been a family history consultant for as far I remember. Nowadays I still hold the same calling but with a little difference, now is my own sealing the one I'm preparing to take to the Temple I'm happy to be here and hope to share and learn about many things not only about the church. Love Maureen

Hi! Can anyone tell me the web address of the new Family Search web site? My husband has the calling and the Family History Center person in our Ward told us we needed to register with our member # but didn't tell us the link. I've looked in Google, and everywhere else but still can't find it. THANKS!
