Sun's JDK & Athlons

[Chong Yu Meng]

Lonni,

I'm not clear on the details, because I don't use Sun's Java, but from 
what I can remember from discussions on the Tomcat mailing list, Sun's 
JDK (1.4) first had problems with NPTL, then it got fixed, then it broke 
again for one release and then got fixed again.

Try setting LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5. This may work, but may not be 
optimal. Then try LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 and see if it works. 
Alternatively, you can try using a newer version of Sun's 1.4.1 
versions. You probably shouldn't use IBM's because of differences in the 
class files.

It should not be a problem with the compiler, unless you are working 
with source files instead of the compiled class files. Or if you are 
using JSPs.

If you provided more information about the application (is it a web app 
on Tomcat?) or the error, that might help.

Regards,
pascal chong
