It should not be path to java path, but to java executable for example: 
/usr/lib/jre/bin/java

The quickest way: 
- install j2re package from http://dag.wieers.com/apt/ repository
- in Konqueror configuration: Settings > Configure Konqueror > Java & 
JavaScript > "Path to Java executable or 'Java" just type:
/usr/lib/jre/bin/java.
- restart Konqueror
- it works
