Description of problem: Using either the stable 32bit Java 1.4.2 sdk or the beta 1.5.0 64 bit one from http://java.sun.com, I get segfaults when trying to run Jakarta-tomcat-4.1.30 from http://jakarta.apache.org How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. set JAVA_HOME to where the SDK live. 2. turn on coredumps with ulimit -c 10000000 3. cd jakarta-tomcat-4.13 4. ./bin/startup.sh 5. access a webapp via your browser. 6. look at the segfaults (via dmesg) or core file The machine passed a round of memtest86 testing. I can send in more info upon request.
oops, the above should read "cd jakarta-tomcat-4.1.30", not 4.13. I haven't tried the blackdown or IBM JDK's yet, but I will. I've also tried LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.19 and 2.2.5 -m
one more detail, the processes segfault with signal 6 SIGABRT. -m
the fix for this (turned out to be a false message) is in the most recent bk kernels (post 2.6.7-rc3 I believe). see http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2839 It might be a good idea to include it in a future update release as it avoids user confusion. -m
Fedora Core 2 has now reached end of life, and no further updates will be provided by Red Hat. The Fedora legacy project will be producing further kernel updates for security problems only. If this bug has not been fixed in the latest Fedora Core 2 update kernel, please try to reproduce it under Fedora Core 3, and reopen if necessary, changing the product version accordingly. Thank you.
