A few messa= ges ago he suggested: >>> Or upgrade to OpenJDK 8 - though of course this depends on your OS: The supported platform set IIUC consists of "versions of Java that Per has installed on his own machine today", since he has to be able to test it in order to claim support. I'm sure if somebody else wants to commit to periodically running tests on some other version and reporting the results, Per would be willing to add that platform to the list. >> So David's problem is not universal with OpenJDK 7.

I haven't messed with Java-on-Debian in a while, but I seem to recall that the /etc/alternatives symlinks didn't always get updated the way they shoul= d. Have you made sure that all of the java-related symlinks are pointing at the same JDK directories/binaries? A version mismatch might produce the errors you're seeing. -- Jamison Hope The PTR Group www.theptrgroup.com
