seeing a segmentation fault and core dump when trying to run java (jdk1.2.2) on RHat 7.0
Do you have latest glibc errata (glibc-2.2-12 at this point) installed?
I am unsure if I am executing the correct commands, because RPM keeps bouncing me out.... 1) // attempt to install glibc-common before glib-2.2-12 // as follows rpm -ivh glibc-common* error: failed dependencies: glibc < 2.2-12 conflicts with glibc-common-2.2-12 2) // list all rpm entries on my RHAT 7 machine # rpm -qa | grep glibc glibc-2.1.92-14 glibc-devel-2.1.92-14 3) // since rpm identifies glibc-common-2.2-12 as a depency, lets to install glibc-common-2.2-12 rpm -ivh glibc-common-2.2-12.i386.rpm error: failed dependencies: glibc < 2.2-12 conflicts with glibc-common-2.2-12 any help would be appreciated
You have to upgrade glibc and glibc-common at once, such as in: rpm -Uvh glibc-2.2-12.i686.rpm glibc-common-2.2-12.i386.rpm the rest can be done with rpm -F, one by one, whatever you want.
how does this affect the workaround as described in bug # 18391 I have included the document for your perusal http://ftp.valinux.com/pub/support/hjl/glibc/sdk/2.1/README.Oracle8i
problem solved the new rpm works and regression tests OK the new library
