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
