Greetings, I hav been trying to get Tomcat to run on my FBSD 5.1-R system, but have been experiencing the infamous: SIGBUS 10* bus error Full thread dump Classic VM (diablo-1.3.1-0, green threads): ... A (partial) portversion output from my system (hopefully including all that is relevant) is: diablo-jdk-1.3.1.0_1 = up-to-date with port jakarta-tomcat-5.0.19 = up-to-date with port javavmwrapper-1.4 = up-to-date with port jdk-1.4.2p6_4 = up-to-date with port linux-sun-jdk-1.4.2.04 = up-to-date with port linux_base-7.1_7 = up-to-date with port A quick Google revealed that the solution for nearly everyone else with the same error was to upgrade something (OS version, Tomcat, Diablo etc.), however everything here is up to date, the server is cvsuped regularly. I wondered whether it was an issue with the Diablo JDK, but I couldn't find an easy way of changing it, especially when the path to diablo/bin appears to be hard-wired into tomcat50ctl. I renamed the diablo directory and made a symlink from the jdk-1.4.2 directory to the diablo-1.3.1 directory, and restarted tomcat. To my surprise it started just fine. I ran thru a few of the examples, left tomcat it running overnight, and the next morning (and, in fact, the morning after that too) it was still running. So the question probably is: does Tomcat 5 really *need* the Diablo JDK or will it run fine with the other one? Btw this is not a production server, just something for me to play with at home, so high-availbility is not required, but the less maintenance the better :) Thanx Dave
