=========================================================== You are using an old Java runtime environment 1.6.0_26 mkgmap support for JRE 1.6.x will be discontinued after June 2013. Please update the JRE to the latest release. ===========================================================

BTW: Java 1.7 isn't yet available as installable package on all platforms.

Linux: openjdk 7, AFAIK there are no problems. Sometimes Orcale Java is necessary. For debian based Linux you can use a shell script to install it. Look here: http://www.duinsoft.nl/packages.php Regards Josef
