Hey guys,
I just tried installing jdk 1.0.7 on my centos 5.6 box and I am getting a permission denied error when I try to display the java version.
[root@VIRTCENT09:/usr/lib] #ln -s /usr/lib/jdk1.7.0 /etc/alternatives/jdk [root@VIRTCENT09:/usr/lib] #ln -s /usr/lib/jdk1.7.0/bin/java /etc/alternatives/java [root@VIRTCENT09:/usr/lib] #ln -s /etc/alternatives/java /usr/bin/java [root@VIRTCENT09:/usr/lib] #java -version Error: dl failure on line 875 Error: failed /usr/lib/jdk1.7.0/jre/lib/i386/client/libjvm.so, because /usr/lib/jdk1.7.0/jre/lib/i386/client/libjvm.so: cannot restore segment prot after reloc: Permission denied
I tried opening up the permissions every step of the way along the path to /usr/lib/jdk1.7.0/jre/lib/i386/client/libjvm.so but no luck so far.
I would certainly appreciate any advice you'd be willing to provide!
It's running fine here with the Oracle rpms but I'm not using the alternatives stuff.
I have
export JAVA_HOME="/usr/java/default"
and symlinks like so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 Aug 4 11:25 /usr/bin/java -> /usr/java/default/bin/java lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Aug 4 11:25 /usr/bin/javac -> /usr/java/default/bin/javac lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Aug 4 11:25 /usr/bin/javadoc -> /usr/java/default/bin/javadoc lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 28 Aug 4 11:25 /usr/bin/javaws -> /usr/java/default/bin/javaws
