Description Gabriel Schulhof 2001-05-14 20:52:13 UTC
Description of Problem:
Sun JDK no longer works out of the box.
It cannot find /usr/bin/cut (No problem: ln -s /bin/cut /usr/bin/cut)
However, There are many errors loading various shared libraries, and
simply adding ${prefix}/bin/java to PATH and running it, causes java to hang.

How Reproducible:
Easily.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download jdk-1_3_0_02 from Sun
2. execute downloaded file (produces an RPM)
3. rpm -ivh <the rpm>
4. ln -s /bin/cut /usr/bin/cut (<- already a workaround)
4. /usr/java/jdk-1_3_0_02/bin/java
             ^^^^^^^^^^^^
                  |
                  +---- if I remember correctly
5. ... (hangs)

Actual Results:
(hangs)

Expected Results:
Run java class

Additional Information:
JDK worked jut fine in 7.0 without the need for any intervention (beyond,
optionally, adding the JDK bin directory to ones path).  Now, in 7.1, it
doesn't work at all.

Comment 1 Trond Eivind Glomsrxd 2001-05-14 21:01:51 UTC
I suggest you read the release notes - there is a bug in JDK (it makes
assumptions which are no longer valid). IBM has a version available with a
workaround.
