I also found that I had to use SVRMGRL instead of SQLPLUS when doing the Java install. Dunno why. HP-UX 11.0 and 11i. I think it takes so long because it is reloading and revalidating the whole entire Java library. I guessing. My 2¢ worth... Mike -Original Message- Sent: Tuesday, Oct

If you have java installed be aware that there are a lot of changes with 8.1.7. If you have problems with the upgrade you *cannot* simply run rmjvm.sql and initjvm.sql There are two documents on removing and installing java which are must reads (I don't have the numbers handy, sorry). Allow a l
