JDK 1.1.8 GUI does not work on Solaris 10?
I am trying to run the JDK 1.1.8 that comes with Oracle 9.2 installer on Solaris 10 Beta 72 and it fails. It complains with the message:
ld.so.1: /export/home/oracle/jre/1.1.8/bin/sparc/native_threads/jre: fatal: relocation error: file /export/home/oracle/jre/1.1.8/bin/../lib/sparc/native_threads/libawt.so: symbol XShmQueryExtension: referenced symbol not found (/export/home/oracle/jre/1.1.8/bin/../lib/sparc/native_threads/libawt.so)
ld.so
The pathway is
oracle/jre/1.1.8/lib/sparc/native_threads/libawt.so
depends on
/usr/dt/lib/libXm.so.3,
depends on
/usr/openwin/lib/libXt.so.4
depends on
/usr/openwin/lib/libX11.so.4
On Solaris 9, libX11.so.4 depends on libXext.so.0, which is where XShmQueryExtension, but this dependency is missing in the Solaris 10 Beta 72.
The libXext.so.0 file exists, it is just the dependency that is missing. .
Has anyone else seen this problem? Any workarounds? How can I notify the Beta program to fix this?
