Sun Java and Linux PPC?

I've installed yellowdog linux on a Mac Mini and it seem that sun doesn't provide any installations for linux-ppc. IBM does and it works s� this is not a big issue but a link or something to IBM could have made my life easier.
Now I go for the NetBeans installation and this is a binary file probably x86. Why cant you provide the installation using a java application or someting other than an executable?
Is there any way to install NetBeans on ppc based linux?

Hi ! I saw the message only now ... I think the class files are loaded from JVM which has to be correlated to the platform (32/64 bit) so I think the only preoccupation is to find netbeans in archive format !
See this link http://www.netbeans.info/downloads/download.php?a=n&p=1 here you can find the q-builds in tar/gizipped or zipped archives. These ones are development versions. Try these ones ! Bye !

Need help for java and linux

Hi, guys,
I am being involved in a project.My current task is to build an interface using java. This interface will obtain some information from a linux-based software called NistNet, which is done by C and has GUI as well. My question is, can I use this java-based interface to obtain some information that is typed in this NistNet'GUI? If I can, how can I do that?
Any hint available?
Thanks!

You can bridge between Java and C using the "Java Native Interface" (JNI). There used to be a good tutorial on this site but it vanished for no apparent reason in some resent update, so try a websearch.

Deploying Sun Java - and controlling settings centrally

Hello.
We are trying to deploy Sun Java to corporate PCs (XPsp2) silently and also to ensure the settings are correct for our environment.
Deploying silently is easy (documented here and using SMS).
Some settings appear to be stored in the registry, and so we can control these by creating Active Directory Group-Policy templates.
However, some settings are stored in "document.properties" in the users profile - and this file is not accessible via normal centralised management techniques.
We want to set the downloaded Java folder (deployment.user.cachedir) to, say, c:\temp on all PCs. We cannot have the default option of having it installed in the user profile, as users profiles are quota'd and are cross-site roaming, so it is key to keep them small.
We would also turn off updates; tray icon etc etc.
We could manually modify this file in everyones user profile - but this is far from ideal, and indeed quite messy.
Is there a separate install package available to corporates where options can be determined in advance? Or is there a way we can apply this?
Many thanks!

I'm going to take a guess here... It's a known situation that, within a single instance of Internet Explorer, you can't have two different kinds of JVM running. So, for example, if you started a new instance of IE, and ran a forms session using JInitiator for a while; then came out of forms but, staying within the same IE instance, started an app using Sun JVM - you'll get a very nasty crash.
However, there should be nothing to stop you simultaneously running separate IE instances, one running JInitiator, one running Sun JVM.
Something to be aware of is that you can have multiple IE windows open, but all existing under the same IE process. For example, if you do CTRL-N from an IE window, you get a new window, but it's still part of the same process - you can see this by checking Task Manager. You can also get multiple windows sharing one process when a link opens in a new window, or you use a desktop shortcut when IE is already open. To guarantee a whole new IE process, the simplest way is to just start IE from the desktop / start menu.
You state that the order in which people open the two apps makes a difference. I wonder if the different order affects whether a new process is started or an existing one shared?
Good luck,
James

Compatibilty Between SUN Java and IBM Java

Hello all,
This is my 1st post in this Forum.
I build a Desktop application compiling my project with IBM J9 VM (build 2.3, J2RE 1.5.0 IBM J9 2.3 Linux Java.
The application runs on a windows pc that has the SUN Java version 1.5 installed, but it does not run on a pc that has the SUN Java version 1.6 installed.
I assume that there is a compatibility issue. Could it be the case that :
IBM Java Version 1.5 is only compatible with SUN Java 1.5 ?
Thanks,
Helen

You'll need to check the IBM site for a bug reports, I doubt Sun is going to be concered with a bug in IBM's implementation.

Incompatiility among the SUN JAVA and IBM JAVA

Hi,
There are Cryptographic policy files present in jre/lib/security. The
default policy files are not capable of using stronger encryption
algorithms like AES 256.
In order to use them we need to install unrestricted policy files.
The unrestricted policy files provided by Sun works fine but the Sun
JRE is not compatible to the IBM JRE from the following scenario.....
If I use the unrestricted policy files from IBM in the Sun JRE 1.6 the following exception occurs.....
Caused by: java.lang.SecurityException: Cannot set up certs for trusted CAs
at javax.crypto.SunJCE_b.<clinit>(DashoA13*..)
... 9 more
Caused by: java.lang.SecurityException: Jurisdiction policy files are not signed
by trusted signers!

at javax.crypto.SunJCE_b$1.run(DashoA13*..)
at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native
Method)
... 10 more
So is Sun Java compatible to IBM java or not?

If I use the unrestricted policy files from IBM in the Sun JRE 1.6Did somebody say you could do that?
So is Sun Java compatible to IBM java or not?Of course is it. But nobody said that if you combine elements of both of them, the result will work, did they?

Java and linux

I read the followig blurb on a website (http://rimuhosting.com/howto/memory.jsp):
Resolving: High Java Memory Usage
Java processes can often consume more memory than any other application running on a server.
Java processes can be passed a -Xmx option. This controls the maximum Java memory heap size. It is important to set a limit on the heap size, otherwise the heap will keep increasing until you get out of memory errors on your VPS (resulting in the Java process - or even some other, random, process - dying.
Is the second paragraph accurate?

I do not think you are correct, at least on the Linux
platform. I don't think there is a default max heap
in Linux, neccesarily...
Does anyone have any info on this? I have spent a
great deal of time researching, to no avail.It is correct information. Also, you are incorrect when you say it does not apply to Java 5. If you had bothered to read the information I directed you to, you would have found the following:
-Xmxn
Specify the maximum size, in bytes, of the memory allocation pool. This value must a multiple of 1024 greater than 2MB. Append the letter k or K to indicate kilobytes, or m or M to indicate megabytes. The default value is 64MB. Examples:
-Xmx83886080
-Xmx81920k
-Xmx80m
On Solaris 7 and Solaris 8 SPARC platforms, the upper limit for this value is approximately 4000m minus overhead amounts. On Solaris 2.6 and x86 platforms, the upper limit is approximately 2000m minus overhead amounts. On Linux platforms, the upper limit is approximately 2000m minus overhead amounts.
I was fully aware of the various conditions that alter the answer, including the server class machine variation. If you had properly asked the question, giving the specifics that you had, you would have received an answer that fit the specifics; you received an answer that fit the question, and a reference to more information.
Please learn how to ask questions correctly, and also research before you argue about the answer - it appears you are more interested in arguing than in the answer. Server class information http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/vm/server-class.html

Highest supported Sun java for forms 10.1.2.0.2?

Hello everyone,
According to Oracle's "client platform statement of direction 10gr2" web page, the highest officially supported version of Sun java for our environment (XP, IE 6, Forms 10.1.2.0.2) is 1.5.0_06. Is this indeed correct? The Sun site has info that this version has the 2007 USA DST changes too.
We are looking into moving from jinitiator to Sun java and we want to make sure we stay supported. I have tested with 1.6 and my app worked ok, but if it's not offically supported, the powers that be will not allow it.
Thanks for any info,
Gary

I believe you need to install forms/reports patchset 3 10.1.2.3 for sun java, plus support for new browsers and vista IE8. going forward no more jinitiator anyway

Is it possible/recommended to backup SUN, AIX to Linux RMAN backup Server

We have a number of databases in a mix OS environment and we are considering RMAN. We have a mix of SUN, AIX and Linux database servers. I would like to know if anyone has implemented RMAN in a similar environment and what were any known challenges. Would a single repository work for this scenario? Could we backup/restore SUN/AIX from a Linux backup server....
Thanks in advance.

If you  are referring to a single catalog for multiple environments that is possible and works really nicely .
A catalog database can reside on any platform as  long it is accessible by the target server.
The backup server concept you are referring to though does t imply that you want the backup pieces from all your mix OS systems i.e. AIX, Solaris etc be stored on one backup server which is on linux. I think that might be possible since you can potentially nfs mount from any OS and store a file. I have not tested this though yet.

Problem with java, ASCII and Linux

Hi Friends,
I has a Linux RedHat 9.0 with a jre1.5.0_04 (rpm package of Sun).
I has a problem with ASCII , for example :
import java.io.*;
public class HolaMundo
public static void main (String[] args)
System.out.println("Hol� M�ndo");
this programs runs ok on my windows jdk so it prints "Hol� M�ndo", but when i run the same HolaMundo.class program on my linux redhat it prints "Hol�� M��ndo"
I think the problem is with the ASCII table that uses the linux version of jre, but i dont know how to solve this problem. I need a Spanish-European ASCII table on my application but i think it is working with a US-ASCII table.
Then i has installed a kaffe 1.0 (rpm) java machie on this linux and this solve the problem but i has another problems of compatibility with this old version of java kaffe.
Do you know whats happening?
Thanks in advance.

The problem doesn't have to do anything with Java or Linux as far as i can see. It's more likely a problem with Windows XP and IE. Be assured that normally downloading the Linux JDK in windows is not a problem.

Sun java directory server and Active Directory

We are using two different directory servers Sun java directory server and active directory.
My question is how we can have password synchronization between these two directory servers.
I have checked Sun Java[TM] System Identity Synchronization for Windows 1 2004Q3
http://www.sun.com/download/products.xml?id=41537425
It seems that it's supported platforms is only for solaris and windows , but I have installed my Sun java directory server on linux and obviously it doesn't work for me.
I would be grateful if anyone can suggest a solution to work around this situation.
I have checked identity manager , I would like to know that if I can do this using this product.
http://www.sun.com/software/products/identity_mgr/specs.jsp
--regards.
Sara

Yes RHEL 4 is a supported OS with DSEE 6.0.
Identity Synchronization for Windows is a part of DSEE that allows synchronization of users, passwords and groups between Sun Directory Server and Active Directory bi-directionally without altering the users environments, ie it does not require that users change their current habits.
Identity Manager is a complete identity management solution that is targetting enterprise work flow when it comes to user provisioning and de-provisioning, but also allows to build authentication and password change forms that will provision the passwords to many different systems including Sun Directory Server and Active Directory but also IBM mainframes, legacy applications, databases...
If you are implementing a complete identity management solution, then go with Identity Manager. If you need a lightweight and fast solution for just synchronizing users and passwords between Sun DS and MS AD, Identity Synchronization for Windows should be your choice.

Ludovic.

Sun Java Directory Server Linux RHEL 5 Installation

Hello,
As Linux RHEL ES/AS 5 is not officially listed in the operating system requirements.
Has somebody been succesful in the installation ?
- With which Linux RHEL 5 update.
- Are the package depencies the same (compat-C/C++ libraries)
- Which Edition of Sun Java Directory Server (5.2Q6, 6.0, 6.3) and which packages (Native/ZIP)
Tips would be useful as I have been successful in Linux RHEL 4 update 4 with Sun Java Directory Server 5.x
in the past but customer requirements have changed and I did not find any Information and do not have testing Time.
Thanks,
Fab

Hello,
Just a quick question: can we have an official position from Sun regarding support of earlier releases of Solaris with Java RTS 2.1? Our customer is currently running Solaris 10 Update 3 with current Recommended patches, and the 2.1 beta cyclic driver supported this version of Solaris. However with the official release version of 2.1, support for U3 disappeared (only U4 and U5 are now supported). Aside from "rubber stamping" the Solaris build via /etc/release, is there a technical reason why U3 is no longer supported? As long as our kernel is up to date, can we safely use 2.1? Or is it just a case of being unable to officially support and test so many releases of Solaris?
Is this a general rule-of-thumb we can expect in future: only supporting the last 2 updates of Solaris 10?
Your advice is appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave.

WebObjects Java Client-JNLP fine on OS X and Linux, Windows problem

Hi,
I have been making a somewhat fruitful exploration into WebObjects Java Client development in order to get my nice IB interfaces for prototypes functional and deployed in a cross platform environment.
I have made some good strides in figuring out the semi-documented process of Java/IB integration, and how to build (including adding external libraries) and deploy onto a server (if anyone else is interested I will share; perhaps a blog is deserved), and though I am able to run it from both Mac OSX and Linux clients on the network (the Linux interface currently looks like garbage but will work on that), when I try to run it on windows I immediately get the following error tab in General:
An error occurred while launching/running the application.
