Trying to install WebSphere 5 (base) on a RedHat 9 box.

Install goes well, and from the firstSteps window, I can start and
stop server, go to the admin console, go to the sample apps, pass the
verify installation test, etc..

I figure I'm home.

I then telnet in, shell over to the AppServer/bin directory and any
script I try and run start/stopServer.sh, firstSteps.sh what ever, and
I get a coredump.

All this as root.

Hmmm, wipe the install, re-install, and again, from the installer
every thing works.  I keep the first steps window open, and things
still work..

Fire up a command line, and every thing coredumps.

Any ideas?

(I set the environment the same when I do the install or when I try
and do it from the command line.....)

Did you try the LD_ASSUME_KERNEL fix?

did you set the ld_assume_kernel is 2.4 variable?

Not a fix, just a workaround. Running on RedHat 9 is not officially
supported.

I must say that WAS v5.1 on Mandrake v10 (also unsupported), is pretty snapp
y
so far.

WAS v5.1 has the new JDK 1.4.1, and with MD 10 and the 2.6 kernel -
things are cruising.

Else the LD_ASSUME_KERNEL does with with RH 9, as that is what I was previou
sly
using.
