Subject: glibc-2.1.3 upgrade breaks threaded java apps From: Thomas Porter <txporter@mindspring.com> Date: Mon, 4 Sep 2000 14:55:52 -0400 I just did the security upgrade to glibc 2.1.3 and all my threaded java apps are cratering with thread related exceptions or going into loops and sucking up 98% of the cpu. These include Bluej, ArgoUML, and TogetherJ Whiteboard edition. This is double plus ungood, and I may have to downgrade back to the previous glibc libraries, if I can find them. Any other reports or observations welcome, especially from RH support. === Subject: Re: glibc-2.1.3 upgrade breaks threaded java apps From: "Michael J.

Same here. I was wondering why moneydance (with IBM's jre 1.1.8) stopped working. I downgraded glibc and things are working fine again. I use autorpm, so I added "^glibc-" to my Regex_Ignore variable, until all this gets worked out (ah the benfits of automagic updating ;-) ). -Mike ===
