John, I ran java -version under strace, but I am not familiar enough with the system to know (for sure) what I am looking for/at. The last few lines in the strace are:
clone(child_stack=0x41a59500, flags=CLONE_VM|CLONE_FS|CLONE_FILES|CLONE_SIGHAND|CLONE_THREAD|CLONE_SYSVSEM|CLONE_SETTLS|CLONE_PARENT_SETTID|CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID, parent_tidptr=0x41a59c08, tls=0x41a59bc0, child_tidptr=0x41a59c08) = 2775 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, NULL, [USR1], 8) = 0 futex(0x48cb9c, FUTEX_WAKE, 1) = 1 sched_yield() = 0 +++ killed by SIGSEGV +++ >From what I can tell, it tried to clone a child process, and that appears to have been successful. It also looks to me that the rt_sigprocmask, futex and sched_yield all worked, too. Then the 'killed by SIGSEGV'. And when not under strace, all you receive is the Segmentation Fault message.

I keep on saying strace. strace will go into what /work/Disk1/stage/Components/oracle.swd.jre/1.3.1.0.0/1/DataFiles/Expanded/lnx390/IBMJava2-s390-131/jre/bin/exe/java does. -- Cheers John -- spambait [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please do not reply off-list ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
