did I install java correctly, and how can I fix this?

when I click on Java mission control I get this message.

{No local (attachable) JVMs were detected, not even the JVMs running this instance of java mission control. Local JVMs will not be detected if the Java mission control client is run with a JRE instead of JDK or if the hsperfdata_<user> folder in TMP is not writable. see the FAQ help section For more information.} I need to know why I am getting this message and what steps can be taken to fix it.

Jimmy;

Can you provide additional details about your computer environment (OS, OS version, etc.)?

From a command line what results do you get if you type

java -version

and

javac -version
