Okay, I'm not new to FreeBSD, everything is quite up to date on this machine. But thanks anyway! The problem with the port is, that it fetches an old package, there is a jdk1.3.0_1 now.

Without that I get the infamous "cannot uninstall alt signal stack" error. Shouldn't that go to the port patches? > When you try to run the JDK, you should set JAVA_HOME to > /usr/local/linux-jdk1.3.0. Thats not needed. At least on this machine. But now something strange. I installed the jdk manually into my $HOME, actually into /usr/home/runge/java/jdk1.3.0_1. I made all changes to .java_wrapper's and jvm.cfg. Still core dumps. But as quiet a few guys have success running it on FreeBSD, there must be something wrong with my setup. I moved the directory to /usr/local/linux-jdk1.3.0 and without any additional changes it worked! Don't know why, maybe it's a problem, that both are on different partitions? Anyway, thank you very much! No reboots to NT anymore! :-) -- Tom To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
