     15== Java Virtual Machine ==
     16When using Debian or a Debian-based Linux like Ubuntu you could install JOSM from the [wikitr:/Download#Ubuntu repository]. The package should install all its dependencies including java. Then you could start JOSM in the shell with the command josm or use the item in the application menu. Sometimes there is an error like this:
     17
     18{{{
    1419  No valid JVM found to run JOSM.
    1520  Please install one of those mentioned in README.Debian
    1621  or set the JAVACMD environment variable prior running josm.

    18   Then you have to make a symbolic link in the folder /usr/bin/ like this:
     23
     24You have to make a symbolic link in the folder `/usr/local/bin/` like this:
     25
    1926{{{
    20   sudo ln -s /usr/bin/java /usr/bin/jamvm
     27#!sh

    24 '''Validation plugin'''
    25     Ensure the validation plugin display is visible by either clicking on the Blue Check Box on the left menu
    26     or typing Alt-V to toggle the display

    28     To validate the map you can either select individual ways by hitting the S key and clicking on the way or
    29     for multiple ways hold down the shift key while clicking on ways.
    30     Or optionally you could enter Ctrl-A to select all objects
    31     As ways are selected they will turn yellow.
     33If you use Ubuntu older than 12.10, consider the possibility that you are experiencing the bug [https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/josm/+bug/1186377 #1186377]. A workaround is described on ticket #8279.

    33     To remove overlapping ways:
    34 
    35         When you expand and highlight the over lapping nodes the over lapping ways should turn blue
    36         Hit the D key to remove the offending way
    37 
    38         If the wrong way is deleted type ctrl-Z to undo the delete operation
    39         To switch to the the "other" way
    40             Middle click on the blue way this will hopefully show multiply ways
    41             Hold down the ctrl key this will hold the way list open so you can release the middle mouse button
    42             Continue holding the ctrl key down and mouse over the next way description and left click on it's description
    43             Then hit the "D" key to delete the way
    44 
    45             You may need to recreate part of the way if the overlapping way

    47     To correct crossing ways
    48 
    49         When you expand and highlight the crossing way nodes the crossing ways should turn into a fat yellow line.
    50         You can now zoom in to the offending area.
    51         You now need to get out of this modes
    52         Hit the S key for select and click on something else to "reset the maps"
    53         Then zoom in until the yellow highlighting disappears.
    54         Hit N for new node and click on the intersection to add a new node.
    55         A yellow dot (new node) should appear to join the ways.
    56 
    57         When your done, don't forget to hit the Z key to get out of adding node mode.
    58

    68 
    69     Unnamed Ways
    70 
    71         These ways auto highlight in solid yellow, you don't need to hit the select button, just click on the node line.
