Installing ARCo on x64 Linux with Blackdown Java JVM

Posted by Rayson Fri, 08 Dec 2006 02:46:00 GMT

Todd was trying to install the Accounting and Reporting Console (ARCo) for an Opteron cluster, and got the error message:
Java setup
----------
We need at least java 1.4.1

Please enter the path to your java installation [] >> /opt/j2re1.4.2

ERROR: This java version does not support 64-bit native libraries,

       The use of libdrmaa.so from the lx24-x86 binaries would be 
       possible, but the packages are not installed.

       Please install a 64-Bit java version or the N1GE 32-bit
       binary packages for the architecture lx24-x86!
The fix is to hack the “inst_dbwriter” script to remove the “-d64” flag which is not supported by Blackdown Java.
