[1.1.5v7] does not work with the following error message (or

Library path not set.
Patrick,
Hmm, I wonder where this is coming from.
Could it be I need to upload the latest glibc libraries?
I really don't know where that exact message originates. You *should*
update to the latest glibc RPMs from RedHat, though.
Visit http://www.redhat.com/support/ and go to their
http://www.redhat.com/support/docs/rhl/rh50-errata-general.html page.
>From there, download all of the updates for your platform's installed
packages. They're all in ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/updates/5.0/i386/.
Here are the most relevant patches for most people:
glibc-2.0.7-7.i386.rpm
libc-5.3.12-25.i386.rpm
You may also want to get these files from
ftp://ftp.xfree86.org/pub/XFree86/3.3.1/binaries/Linux-ix86:
X331lib.tgz, X331S3.tgz, and X331bin.tgz
I'm sure that 3.3.2 would work fine, but I haven't tried it.
Make sure your CLASSPATH, JAVA_HOME, and JDK_HOME environment
variables aren't setup for a different, possibly older JDK installed
on your system. Check /etc/profile.d for scripts that are
automatically sourced at login for conflicts. This will probably only
have happened to you if you installed a different version of the JDK
from RPM.
If you're still having problems, please consider looking the script
I'm providing you below over carefully, running it, and sending the
results to me. You can even pipe it to me like this:
sh script | Mail -s "JDK115v7 Troubleshooting Output" [EMAIL PROTECTED]
It's pretty spammy, and includes some information that may be personal,
so please don't send it back to this list :-)
Good luck,
Steve
