Java Hotspot crash depends on directory name lenght?

[Sabine Bödefeld]

Hallo,
we see a very strange behaviour on HPUX B.11.11 U 9000/800, vpar with Java JDK 1.3.1_13 (same with JDK 1.4.2 or 1.3.1_12).
Starting a small Java program in some directory e.g. /data/test it works, when we rename the directory in /data/testtest, it crashes in mallinfo, the stack is posted below.
whether it crashes or not also seems to depend in which order the classes are loaded (how CLASSPATH is ordered) and whether classes are in .jars or unpacked.
This just happens on one of our six HPUX machines.
Does anyone have an idea what could be wrong with this machine?
Patches are up to date, PHCO_30544 and PHCO_31061 are installed.

Hi


Since it is only 1 machine and there are I asume no real differences between the boxes then I suggest Hardware


Last time I saw such a thing it was a
BAD FloatingPointCo-processor
