I am installing OpenOffice 1.1.0 on a system on which I just did a fresh install of FreeBSD-4.9-RELEASE-i386.
I am at the point where JDK is being installed, which requires that LINPROCFS be mounted, because it needs Linux emulation, which I installed from the ports and have enabled in rc.conf. The first step is to load the linprocfs kernel module, but that gives me the following error: kldload: can't load /modules/linprocfs.ko: Exec format error A look in dmesg shows the following: link_elf: symbol nextpid undefined I did a Google search for this error, but did not turn up anything. The complete seqence of error messages is shown below. I am very new to FreeBSD, so please word your responses accordingly. Thanks, Barry ============================================= ERROR: You have to have LINPROCFS mounted before starting to build of native JDK 1.4.1. You may do it by following set of commands: # kldload linprocfs and # mount -t linprocfs linprocfs /compat/linux/proc *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/java/jdk14. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/editors/openoffice-1.1. ============================================== digital-village# kldload /modules/linprocfs.ko kldload: can't load /modules/linprocfs.ko: Exec format error digital-village# kldload -v /modules/linprocfs.ko kldload: can't load /modules/linprocfs.ko: Exec format error ============================================== digital-village# dmesg | tail link_elf: symbol nextpid undefined ============================================== _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
