Upgrading Linux java 1.4.2 AMD 64 bit edition with Daylight Saving Time

I am running 64 bit version of Java 1.4.2 It is the linux blackdown version because at the time Sun did not support a 64 bit version. Now I would like to upgrade java to fix the possible problems with the Daylight Savings Time change.
I have tried the tzupdater tool released by Sun but it did not work on my 64 bit machine, stating it could not find any tzone data to update.
Next I looked into updating the JRE itself but it appears that Sun still does not offer a AMD 64 bit version for 1.4.2 linux. They only seem to have support for 64 bit in Java 5 and 6.
Any ideas as to my best migration path? Should I consider taking the plunge and upgrading straight to Java 6 - although this will require updating Tomcat also and possibly breaking many of the 3rd party jar files we have in use.

My OS configuration is identical to your (save for the graphics card) and I do not experience these issues at all. I run pop-up blockers, firewalls, etc., etc., myself, and even mess around extensively with my browser settings (for debugging my own development), and have only EVER experienced an apparent lock-up under one condition:
If an applet is signed, and pops up and dialog, OR if there is any other condition under which the PLUGIN displays a dialog box, and during this time your browser is no longer in focus, when you reactive the browser window, the dialog box does not appear in the front. What I'm saying is that there might be an active MODAL DIALOG box, but which is not being seen. These dialog boxes do not appear on the taskbar under windows (just like the calendar doesn't) but you can active it by using the Alt+Tab function of Windows. When I've experienced support calls regarding this sort of problem, I get the user to check Alt+Tab to check if there is a hidden dialog box (which is most often the case, since we used signed applets).
I'm also a little confused by your reference to http://www.giga-byte.com - this site doesn't even load an applet when I open it.

  • Java 1.4 and Daylight Saving Time 2007

    The current version of Java 1.4.2 for Tiger, 'Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_09-244)' does not handle the new 2007 Daylight Saving Time rules correctly. Will Apple be updating Java 1.4.2 to the version that does support 2007 DST correctly? (at least 1.4.2_11 is required per Sun, http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/Intl/USDST/).
    If so, when? Thanks!

    Since you didn't list your computer, here's a link to Java 5.0 release 4 for both PPC and Intel-based Macs, which came out in April: http://search.info.apple.com/?q=J2SE50Release4.dmg&type=kbdload&search=Search&lr =lang_en&search=Go. That should solve your problem.

  • Daylight saving time changes - Netweaver Java

    Hi,
    For DST, we are planning to shutdown ABAP systems. What about JAVA systems, shall Hi,
    For DST , we are planning to shutdown ABAP systems. What about JAVA systems, shall we need to shutdown JAVA systems??
    It would be great, if any one can provide any document or OSS notes for JAVA systems.
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi Srinivas,
    Sorry that I don't know any Note covering all different platforms and releases...
    My experience is that for non-active Java engine on Windows, the Java engine would run fine without shutdown. For some platform(s), it is required to shutdown ABAP stack, so the Java engine will be down for ABAP+JAVA systems.
    If you give the release and the platform details, manby someone has the answer.
    Best regards,

  • IPhone upgrade to 3.1.2. resets date time - no daylight saving

    I upgraded my iPhone 3GS to the new OS: 3.1.2 recently. I noticed the date & time were reset to some time way in the past so I reset them to the current date & time. I notice now there's no way in the Settings | General |Date & Time to automatically have the date & time synced with your PC and the iPhone doesn't take allowance of daylight saving time - I added London as a city for keeping track of my time and the Clock shows it as 10 hours behind Sydney time rather than 11, which would be the case if Sydney was set at daylight saving time.
    Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get my iPhone to recognise daylight saving time again? I can't see anywhere on the iPhone or iTunes to do it, I've tried resetting my iPhone. Nothing is working.

    I don't see a DST option either. I assume that Set Date & Time automatically did set from the phone network and that would include DST corrections. Mine is correct now and we are on DST here. Manual says:
    "Set whether iPhone updates the date and time automatically: Choose General > Date & Time and turn Set Automatically on or off.
    If iPhone is set to update the time automatically, it gets the correct time over the cellular network, and updates it for the time zone you’re in.
    Some carriers don’t support network time in all locations. If you’re traveling, iPhone may not be able to automatically set the local time."

  • Daylight saving patches to java certified by oracle

    Which version of JVM needs to be installed in Oracle, by which we can make Java API calls from database using dbms_java to support daylight saving in US ?
    US Daylight saving time changes are being patched by SUN in all versions of Java. But has Oracle certified all of these versions ?
    If there is a JRE 1.3 installed on Oracle 9i, can the daylight saving patches be applied to this version ? Is there any info from Oracle regarding this ?

  • Java 1.4.2 w/ 64 bit Linux on AMD 64 processors

    I noticed that Java 1.4.2 wasn't availble for AMD 64 bit Linux. Is this true? Was it ever developed? I need 1.4.2. since an RMI distribution I am using was built against it.
    Thanks,
    Sam

    Vandering,
    You may try to use 64 bit libs from OS, not those 32-bit libs downloaded from Oracle.
    In my Red Hat 4 installation, 64 bit libs are available at /lib64/
    You may try to copy the 64-bit files libstdc++.so.5 and libgcc_s.so.1 to your netpoint/webgate/access/oblix/lib/ directory.
    BTW, the last package I found at Oracle is: Oracle_Access_Manager10_1_4_0_3_linux64_APACHE2_WebGate

  • HT1338 I need to upgrade my JAVA software - I'm in a MacBook Leopard 10.5.8?

    I'm trying to use an on-line program that may require me to upgrade my JAVA software. Any ideas?

    Upgrade your OS:
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard, Lion, or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You must purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
             7. Xserve (Early 2009)
         Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
         Am I eligible for the free upgrade?
             See Apple - Free OS X Mountain Lion upgrade Program.
         For a complete How-To introduction from Apple see Upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion.

  • Upgrade default java version in Solaris 8?

    I have Solaris 5.8 running on sun blade system. Default Java version is 1.2.2 and user need it to upgraded to latest version of Java so, I installed jre1.6.0 (combination of 32-bit install and 64 bit install). Now I can't point solaris to look at the newly installed java version. I have tried to change the path variable in .cshrc but it is readonly to root and group is deamon. I also tried changing the symbolic link from /usr/java to /usr/jre1.6.0 but it is still looking at default version of java1.2.2.
    I need help as I don't know much about Solaris to upgrade this java. Any help or guidance is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    solaris_newbee

    After installing, you need to update the '/usr/java' sym link to point to your new root installation. For example, I installed jdk1_5_16 at /usr/jdk/jdk1.5.0_16/ and then added this symlink:
    ln -s /usr/jdk/jdk1.5.0_16/ /usr/java
    You may need to remove the symlink that is already there before it will allow you to successfully create the new one.
    There are several other dependent symlinks in /usr/bin that use /usr/java, but you only have to update /usr/java.
    From one noob to another.

  • Upgrading to Java 7 u45, and my applet can not be openend

    After upgrading to u45, I can not open an applet from HTML page, even on the simplest scenario (described below)
    The applet is signed, and the whole scenario used to be working well on u40.
    Trying to open this HTML with u45 results with InvocationTargetException run time exception.
    Why does this happen? Does anyone knows how to bypass this?
    I'm so frustrated. The last few java upgrades required huge amount of work on my behalf. They are so not backward compatible its unbelievable.
    The simple version of my HTML looks like this:
    <HTML><SCRIPT    LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.2" TYPE="text/javascript">
            document.writeln("<APPLET CODE='com/PkgDudu/myApplet/AppletInit.class' ARCHIVE='sample.jar' WIDTH=100% HEIGHT=100% BORDER=1>");
            document.writeln("</APPLET>");
    </SCRIPT></HTML>
    my simplified applet code looks like this:
    package com.PkgDudu.myApplet;
    import java.applet.Applet;
    public class AppletInit extends Applet {
        public static void main(String[] args) {

  • After upgrade linux-firmware (20100606-1) lvm root will not be loaded

    Hello,
    I'm a newbie, although arch has been running for 2 years now on my server.
    after I've upgraded the system today with linux-firmware (20100606-1) (from kernel26-firmware(2.6.33.4-1), coreutils (8.5-2), dri2proto (2.3-1) udev (157-1),initscripts (2010.06-2) and mkinitcpio (0.6.6-1), I did not see any errors and rebooted.
    The result was an error that my LVM root could not be created.
    I have a /boot that is outside lvm and then my root and home etc are in the lvm.
    When looking closer at the creation of the kernel26.img I noticed that the usual usb, keymap and lvm2 were not created.
    Why he did not make it now like before I do not know (maybe because of the upgrade of the mkinicpio?)
    I've booted my system with sysresccd and edited the /etc/mkinitcpio.conf to include usb, keymap and lvm2 (in the order it normally is created)
    Now the problem is that I do not have a clue how to solve how to build the new image, since I can not boot into my system to run the command:
    /sbin/mkinitcpio -k 2.6.34-ARCH -c /etc/mkinitcpio.conf -g /boot/kernel26.img
    I've tried it with the lvm root and my boot mounted and then run an adjusted command but it does not work because it needs stuff from /sbin (like gen_init_cpio.
    I've tried starting up from the arch2010.05 CD but after lvmdiskscan I get an error that the device-mapper driver is missing in the kernel.
    (I've did a "modprobe md_mod" and "modeprobe -l | grep md-mod" shows kernel/drivers/md/md-mod.ko so I figure it is loaded.
    How can I solve this?

  • Linux, Java and Javax.usb

    Hello,
    I've spent 3 days trying to install the javax.usb package on my linux with the classical package and I finally found the javax.usb RPMs. I installed them and every thing seemed fine until I tried to run a java program.
    Now I'm unable to run any program.
    Completion does not work anymore e.g. when I'm in a directory with a .class file, the completion is unable to find it.
    That would not be a real problem but when I try to run a java program, I always end up with a ClassNotFoundException. Does anyone have a clue about what is happening to me.
    System : Mandriva 2009.0

    Packages that begin with "java" are base packages.
    Packages that begin with "javax" are extensions to
    Java (hence the "x").
    AWT was the first UI package in Java. Swing came
    later and was added as an extension.
    %aha, right. cheers

  • AMD Radeon HD 6970M with 2GB GDDR5 available for upgrade?

    I bought my iMac in store and it came with AMD Radeon HD 6970M with 1GB. Then I saw that the 2GB version of this card is availble online only. I want the 2GB card bad. I see that apple sells video cards for older verions of the iMac. Does anyone know if there is a way to order the 2GB card for the mid-2011 i7 iMac?

    Changing out the Radeon 6970M 1GB for a 2GB card will not void the warranty.  Changing the cpu will.
    Really.
    Have you read the warranty? Specifically, check (g) which appears to be applicable to a different graphics card (as well as (f)  and (d) which may also be applicable):
    (This is an excerpt from an iMac hardware warranty for the US):
    This warranty does not apply: (a) to consumable parts, such as batteries, unless failure has occurred due to a defect in materials or workmanship; (b) to cosmetic damage, including but not limited to scratches, dents and broken plastic on ports; (c) to damage caused by use with another product; (d) to damage caused by accident, abuse, misuse, liquid contact, fire, earthquake or other external cause; (e) to damage caused by operating the Apple Product outside Apple’s published guidelines; (f) to damage caused by service (including upgrades and expansions) performed by anyone who is not a representative of Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider (“AASP”); (g) to an Apple Product that has been modified to alter functionality or capability without the written permission of Apple; (h) to defects caused by normal wear and tear or otherwise due to the normal aging of the Apple Product, or if any serial number has been removed or defaced from the Apple Product.
    It is irrelevant whether or not I've done a teardown. What is important is that the OP now has the information necessary to make an informed decision. With that, I am done here.
