With a trailing period? That should be removed. > Will the above cause any other issues? If change LANG helps it means the JVM is not multibyte-locale clean. The locale is (should be?) used for all kind of internal things like reading text files. By changing the locale any text file read has to be encodined using ISO-8859-1 instead of UTF-8. You have to know yourself whether this is a problem. > What other incompatibilities should i expect between Java1.3.1 and a > NPTL kernel? There are many things which will go wrong with old JVMs. The thread library behaves differently (but correctly) now. The exec-shield functionality is causing problems. No version earlier than 1.4.2 has been shown to work correctly. - -- â Ulrich Drepper â Red Hat, Inc. â 444 Castro St â Mountain View, CA â -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/urnu2ijCOnn/RHQRAvSaAKCqsGJRwzj8fSPDNY13lJdtc/r5fQCeMLc8 ID8Am4ozKJddKCrVPX40MFo= =WaZ8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
