Try with /usr/ports/java/jdk14 (native JDK 1.4 for FreeBSD).  It worked
for me.  I am running FreeBSD 5.4 STABLE.

Re: Having Some Trouble with Java on FreeBSD

Hi,

O.k., people please correct me if I'm wrong but...

I've been having a small amount of trouble with running Java on FreeBSD 
(version 5.4 for amd64) and I was hoping that someone would be kind 
enough to help me out.


I manually installed the linux version of Java.  Which seemed to work 
alright


[...]

So...  Then I went through the documentation for FreeBSD some more and 
decided to start over by reinstalling the Linux Java using:

cd /usr/ports/java/linux-sun-jdk15
make install clean

But now I get the following error: linux-sun-jdk-1.5.0.01,2 does not run 
(core dumps: Bad System Call).  Note that previously I manually 
installed it by simply downloading the Linux version on another 
computer, transfering it over to the computer, and executing the file.


I *think* I've heard/read that the AMD64 version of FreeBSD doesn't 
feature 'Linux compatibility'. Perhaps that's where your issues come 
from. No idea why a binary distribution of a Linux version would have 
worked, but perhaps that was just coincidence?!?


Either way, please don't come down too hard on me if I'm way off base 
here; as the above is purely based on hearsay and my own speculation...


Cheers!
Olafo

Having Some Trouble with Java on FreeBSD

2005-10-20 Thread Franklin E. Powers, Jr.
I've been having a small amount of trouble with running Java on 
FreeBSD (version 5.4 for amd64) and I was hoping that someone would 
be kind enough to help me out.


I manually installed the linux version of Java.  Which seemed to work 
alright and then I was trying to build the native version using Sun's 
sources and the patch.  And that seemed to go well, except for one 
small problem, which was that the hotspot compiler seemed to have 
trouble finding its stack frame and it outputted a warning to 
standard output, which ended up in some of the files that were 
produced during the build process.  Anyway...  I took care of that, 
but then it appears that near the end of the build process, Java 
suffered an internal error of some kind.


So I tinkered with that a bit and I discovered that the almost 
complete native build for FreeBSD could run.  So I decided to try to 
finish the build process, by getting it to build itself.  But it 
suffered a slightly different error.


So...  Then I went through the documentation for FreeBSD some more 
and decided to start over by reinstalling the Linux Java using:

cd /usr/ports/java/linux-sun-jdk15
make install clean

But now I get the following error: linux-sun-jdk-1.5.0.01,2 does not 
run (core dumps: Bad System Call).  Note that previously I manually 
installed it by simply downloading the Linux version on another 
computer, transfering it over to the computer, and executing the file.


BTW...  The computer is not connected to the internet.  And in case 
it makes any difference, its a 64-bit dual processor Xeon.


The problem should probably be obvious to me.  But its not and as a 
result, I would be grateful for assistance.




Thanks in advance,
Franklin E. Powers, Jr.
