We have a java application running with multiple JNI Libraries. Everything is fine on NT with the Java 1.3.0_02 JVM. On Solaris we recieve "Fatal System Error: Raise at top of Exception Stack" from within the java code. If we try debugging under "jdb" everything works as expected. If we run with "-Xint" specified to java again everything runs fine. However this is not an option due to performance reasons. Also note that this error is produced seemingly randomly, ie: not always at the same point of execution.

Again our problem involves JNI calls. Specifically going to C programs
that do PDF conversion stuff.

environment is:

solaris 5.8 Generic_108528-04 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-250
jdk 1.3.1-rc2-b23
