I applied Greg Lewis' jdk15 patch he sent yesterday (at http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-java/2005-September/004329.html) to the java/jdk15 port and I've successfully built the port on amd64 with it today. I tried building and installing it earlier today before I applied the patch, and it failed during the install with the "can't dump" error... > I feel confused, I read about this error but no solutions or > workaround.

IIRC, I was able to fetch and install all the amd64 packages for Linux compatibility on my new amd64 machine installed from 6.0BETA2, and the Linux JDK worked just fine for me... I used portinstall, and I explicitly set PACKAGESITE to retrieve the binary packages from ftp://ftp2.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/amd64/packages-6-current/All... > Within the last 4 years I belong to the 'small' (?) group of FreeBSD > users who never had success compiling a working JAVA environment.
