I'm still not sure what caused the problem, but it ran fine on another server with a single processor. Thing to note, when I run dpkg-architecture on my Ubuntu Desktop (64bit), or the single (opteron) processor server, it returns the correct values. On the Dual (opteron) processor server, I get all blank values unless I run it as root. Both servers run Debian 3.1 AMD64 Anywhoo, the java problem was solved by creating the package on another machine, that doesn't use the SMP Kernel. -- Marc DM www.phronein.com/marcdm -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
