I posted an e-mail regarding the java debugger supplied with the Sun Java SDK.
Well, after much messing around I have found that Sun, bless 'em, missed one
file out of the SDK tar ball (it was in ALL the RC releases !) and didn't copy
a library file to /usr/lib ! (Thanks to Blackdown for that by suggesting using
strace.)
Any way, to another problem. The java debugger now complains about not being
able to connect to the local host.
So, I tried ping localhost, and ping 127.0.0.1
5 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss
Why doesn't this work anymore !?!?!?!?!?
It used to work, well when I say used to, I haven't tried ping'ing for ages and
ages.
Anyway, is this why I can't connect to localhost, or is this a red herring.
Help please,
Owen
