Subject: Bus Error? (was: JDK 1.1.4)
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org
X-Loop: FreeBSD.org
Precedence: bulk

My bus error is bigger than I thought.  I've installed kwhite's JDK 1.1
for FreeBSD.  I get the core dump with this as well.

Bus error - core dumped

from /var/log/messages:

pid 26222 (java), uid 0: exited on signal 10 (core dumped)

Is there any way to track down what's causing this error?

It's more than the Linux_lib.

Yesterday I wrote:

With the help of Scott Mitchell's .java_wrapper, I managed to get the Linux
port of JDK 1.1.3 to work.  (I also had to set the JAVA_HOME variable in
my .cshrc)

But now when I try to run the ICQ 0.911 for Java, I get:
Bus error - core dumped

Now I thought this might be ICQ, or JDK1.1.3, but then I remembered that
StarOffice core dumped with the same error since I installed FreeBSD 2.2.5
(but before I installed JDK).

Is there a known bug with linux_lib-2.4 and 2.2.5?  StarOffice worked under 
2.2.2.  I upgraded to 2.2.5 via a clean install (to take over more of the HD).

I have also pkg_delete linux_lib2.4 and reinstalled it from the CD.

Another note:  Acroread 3.01 runs fine, under linux_lib2.4.  No core dump
there.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Patrick

P.S.  I don't know how to read a core dump.
