I just installed the latest JDK from Sun using rpms built with the jpackage spec file. The install seemed to work properly and everything that I've tried works, except java web start.
strace shows the error, javaws looping on
waitid(P_PID, 3163, 0xbff85180, 0, NULL) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
This is the same bug that was in 1.4.2.crap. bug.sun.com shows that it's fixed in 5.2 (where's that?).
If anyone has a fix to share (that doesn't involve a preload .so), I'd appreciate it.
Regards,
John

That problem was fixed in 1.5. What version did you install? Works for me with 1.5.0_04 (still have to rebuild te jpackage 1.5.0_05 rpm)... If you're starting with the browser plugin, maybe you've still got an 1.4plugin installed?

Is it actually working for you? I yum removed 1.4 and installed 1.5.0_05. I see the error when I run javaws directly or in the browser. So, not fixed here in the latest version of 1.5 from Sun. I'll poke around and make sure 1.4 is really gone.

The 1.5.0_3 version has been working for me under FC3 for some time. I loaded the package directly from Sun. You might try that.

I'm running this, also directly from Sun:
[jwendel@Godzilla1 ~]$ java -version java version "1.5.0_05" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_05-b05) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_05-b05, mixed mode, sharing)
If it's not too much trouble, where did you find 1.5.0_3 ?
Thanks,
John

I pulled it from Sun's site many many months ago. I am sure there are updates to it since then. Actually I do have version 1.5.0_04-b05 as well. I pulled the first version to solve that specific problem with javaws. Had to get some tools that are needed for work going on my laptop and that was required when I loaded the laptop with FC3. Previously the laptop with FC2 did not have that problem since they had not made those changes in the glib.
