Okay, I installed the port for linux_base-7.1_3 Then I installed the port for linux-sun-jdk-1.4.1_2 when I try to make the port for java/jdk14 and it hangs right after printing out bsd i586 1.4.1-p3 build started: 03-04-24 19:45 In 'ps', I do notice some processes of: /usr/local/linux-sun-jdk1.4.1/bin/java -version which seem to be just sitting there. I also notice a process: /bin/sh -c /usr/local/linux-sun-jdk1.4.1/bin/java \ -version 2>&1 | /usr/bin/awk -F'"' '{ print $2 }' which implies that running java with '-version' is supposed to just print out the versions and exit. If I run that by hand, it does not seem to do the "and exit" part. This is on freebsd-current, built April 22nd. SMP machine. This is also the first time I've tried to build any of the java stuff. This might be a problem in -current, but I thought I'd mention it. Also, I managed to end up with a '(javac)' process that had a process-id of zero. Seeing that did not give me a warm-and-fuzzy feeling, so I rebooted... -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@gilead.netel.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu
