Awful JVM in hpux

Posted in IT at 1:26 pm by xbin999

I’m busy and really tired recently. We’re developing Business Accounting& Settling System for Mobile corp. It will be released next week. Wish i can have a good Chinese New Year!

But I’m annoyed with the JVM in hpux now. Our java program can work well in windows, but crashed in hpux. Faint!

Aaah, the same program can work in another HP host. Its jdk is 1.4.2.05. The jdk which used in crashed host is 1.4.2.09. In hp site, it’s said that jdk 1.4.2.09 can work with HPUX 11.0, 11.15 and 11.23, not 11.11. Maybe it’s the reason. So we reinstalled jdk with version 1.4.2.05. To my sadness, it’s as before.

Sometimes it can work, sometimes it crashed, and sometimes it seemed to fall in dead loop. The cpu is busy, but nothing is done.

Give a simple test:

#!/bin/sh

while true
do
java -version
done
It crashed after executing for a while. I had no idea more. Maybe os patch is needed. Who know? We need to seek help from hp.

    It does sound like a patching issue. http://www.hp.com/go/java should be able to point you to the patches. Also in the itrc, go to the patch section, and look for the java patch set.

    Thanks John.
    We currently used jdk1.4.2.05 and removed some patches for jdk1.4.2.09. It seemed ok now.
