I have seen a number of messages flowing by the last little while about trouble getting Java to work on FreeBSD x.x.x. I'm afraid I must add myself to the troubled group. I just installed Communicator 4.0b3 using the port that was updated today (April 9) and I get the familiar 'Floating point exception' message and a quick disappearance of Communicator whenver Java tries to start up. Several messages mentioned that the CLASSPATH had to be unset to make Java work so my current /usr/local/bin/netscape wrapper looks like: #!/bin/sh export XKEYSYMDB ; XKEYSYMDB=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB export XNLSPATH ; XNLSPATH=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/nls export XAPPLRESDIR ; XAPPLRESDIR=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults #export CLASSPATH ; CLASSPATH=.:/usr/local/lib/netscape exec /usr/local/lib/netscape/netscape.bin $* and still it crashes. I copied the *.jar files (ifc11.jar, iiop10.jar, jae40.jar java40.jar) into ALL the locations mentioned in the README: The current directory (~) /usr/local/netscape/java/classes /usr/local/lib/netscape $HOME/.netscape and still it crashes. Would someone who has it working post their wrapper file and a list of the *.jar (or other java class) files they have installed, with a note of exactly where they are installed. ---- Ken
