JVM Crashes on HPPA 64 Bit and HPIA 64 Bit

Vaishali Maurya — Fri, 01 May 2009 16:53:09 GMT

I am working on a project which uses 3rd party library which invokes JVM. Except HP platforms, this library is working fine on all other platforms. On HP platform JVM crashes with following stack trace:

I wrote one simple C program which uses JNI_CreateJavaVM(), this program is working fine for me.

Can anyone please help to know why that library is causing this problem?
I have rebuild this 3rd party library with same link options which I used for my C program but even now this library is crashing.

What's at frame #0? What's the signal?
Are you in a thread? Do you have a thread stack overflow?

You'll probably need to contact the Response Center.

I am not getting any frame#0 in stack trace. Is it possible? Sorry I don't know much about trace thing.

But how can simple JNI_CreateJavaVm works fine with this Java?

>I am not getting any frame#0 in stack trace.

Are you in gdb or is this being printed automatically?
Do you have a core file?

>But how can simple JNI_CreateJavaVm work fine with this Java?

As I mentioned, if you have a thread stack overflow, that may explain why it doesn't work on HP-UX.

yeah I am in GDB.

Then gdb will show frame #0. And it should tell you the signal.
When you get a stack trace, does it go past frame #8?

You need a disassembly and a register dump:
(gdb) disas $pc-16*12 $pc+16*4
(gdb) info reg

You can get the thread stack used by:
(gdb) p /x $sp_save = $sp
(gdb) frame 9 # the largest one
(gdb) p $sp-$sp_save

Shalom,

Whats the back end version of Java/JVM?

Have you considered updating that, recompiling the application?

What is the JVM version? If you updated to JVM 1.6.003, consider downgrading to 1.6.002. That solved my different problem.
