Tim,
Well...until I could get even java -version working, I couldn't even run
orion. It's running orion now.
This is a fresh install of rh7.1 (not an upgrade), then install jdk1.3.1rc1.
If you just use the LD workaround, and type
myjavapath/bin/java -version
You will get a hang.
IF you *don't* use the LD workaround, and use the symbolic link, it seems to
work. With java working, Orion works with this, also. All pretty bleeding
edge stuff, here, but Sun knew this weeks ago, and didn't update their
package.
However, if you try to install Oracle 8.1.7, it won't work, because Oracle
needs the LD workaround, and the compatibility packages. (the symbolic
workaround will cause many make files to fail in Oracle). So you can't yet
install java 1.3 and Oracle on the same machine.
But you can install Orion with 1.3 on one rh7.1 machine, and Oracle on RH7
without jdk1.3 on another machine.
This is all pretty pedontic, and not useful for all orion developers...but
if you are installing the latest stuff from rh and sun and oracle and orion,
this is what we have to deal with.

the elephantwalker

Hmm. Thanks for pointing that out.
Is it specifically running Orion where you see the problem, or are
you seeing it with other Java applications also? I ask because I
am currently running Tomcat 3.2.1 with Apache on the GJT, and so
far I have not had any problems with Java, servlets, JavaDoc or
Jar.
