Hi!
I'm getting a nasty jvm hang on redhat 2.1as. Just trying to figure out where the problem could be. I wanted to know what's the quick-n-dirty way to make the jvm use an older version of glibc. I have glibc-2.2.4-26 and would like to use some older version like 2.1.3 etc. Is it sufficient to just place the .so somewhere and include it in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH?
It may work if LD_LIBRARY_PATH is defined from within startup scripts of JVM. Otherwise you can put compat glibc in standard places like /usr/i386-glibc-21-linux and include that in /etc/ld.so.conf, I guess compat-libs rpm packages do all that. Best would be to use ldd to first see what libraries it needs.
