jre-1_5_0_06plusb02 sponsor bundle causes Segmentation Violation on Win2003

XMLWordPrintable

    • plus3
    • x86
    • windows_2003
    • Not verified

      Steps to reproduce:

      Bundles can be found here:

      /net/carlow.ireland/export/home2/jdk/1.5.0_06/plus/b02/bundles

      Copy the following bundle to a Windows 2003SE machine:

      jre-1_5_0_06-fcs-bin-b05-windows-i586-p-11_jan_2006-s.exe

      NB: When the network cable is unplugged the bundle installs without error. This error only occurs on machines with access to the a network.

      When installed by "double clicking" a java process begins but dies after a few seconds. When installed from the command line the following error appears:

      <pid> Segmentation Violation

      When installed on Windows XP home a "Unexpected Error" GUI appears when installed from the command line
      By adding in the following registry value the JRE installs as expected:

      HKLM/Software/Javasoft/InstallerXmlURL

      Set String value to:

      http://javadl-esd.sun.com/update/1.5.0/1.5.0_06-test.xml

      However there is still an issue with how the error is being handled when an xml is not found.
      seeing same on win-xp-pro (sp2). when i execute jre-s.exe through csh i get the windows warning gui. however, when i execute jre-s.exe through ksh i get segmentation-fault on the cmd line but no warning window gui. both are done without any registry key modification. if i set registry HKLM/Software/Javasoft/InstallerXmlURL to http://javadl-esd.sun.com/update/1.5.0/1.5.0_06-test.xml installation proceeds as expected.
