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.
