Re: Can't start Tomcat 5.5.12 on Solaris 9

[William Bonnet]

Hi

I just tried compiling a simple java program and got a segmentation fault. I
was using JDK5.0 which I just downloaded.

It's really strange that the javac compiler makes a segfault...


on which kind of computer are you running Solaris 9 ? spar c? x86 ?





download the .Z file
extract it :
tar xfz jdk-1_5_0_05-solaris-sparcv9.tar.Z

install it as root with
pkgadd -d . SUNWj5rtx

and try again please

can you give us some more information ? are you sure the installation was successfull ? have you downloaded the right version (i mean 32 or 64 bits ? 64 for ultra sparc processor, 32 for microsparc (SS5 for instance)) you seems to have installed the jdk with the .sh package, can you try to reinstall it with the package ?

However, when I use the jdk that came from the system in /usr/sbin/javac,
the compilation completed successfully.

can you compile a very simple example and give us the output of the compiler ?

like this

public class dummy {
       public static void main(String args[]) {
       System.out.println("Hello world");
       }
}

then javac dummy.java

please paste the output of the compiler

Looks like I did not install the downloaded JDk1.5 correctly. But, JDK1.5
installation is just running the sh file right?

Use the package, the set the JAVA_HOME to the right place

/usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.5.0/



which javac

it will output the path to the java compiler




Kind regards,
