Forum Problems Installing LAMS: Intel mac - LAMS fails startup.

By: Jun-Dir Liew

[ Reply | Forward ]

I think your Java version is 1.5, LAMS 1.0 runs on 1.4.2. You can check your java version by typing 'java -version' in a Terminal application.

I'm not too familiar with Mac systems, but I think you may be able to install something called Xcode to get Java 1.4.2 on your system... also, because you have an Intel Mac, you might be able to use Sun's Linux installer for Java 1.4.2 SDK if you're familiar with the command line (http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html).

Thanks for prompt response.
I have XCode installed - and yes my Java version is Java 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition, build 1.5.0_06-112

hmmmm - will look into issues with downgrading my Java environment. I assume Java is similar to php, apache etc where you should only (in normal circumstances) run a single instance?

Hi Matt,

Downgrading your JAVA might not be a good idea, given that the LAMS v2.0 beta is coming out at the end of this month!

If you give me a day or two, I can check whether I can get java 1.4.2 and java 1.5 to coexist in a mac without causing major pain.

Thanks,

Ernie

Matt,

Can you have a look at this directory on your mac and let me know what versions are listed:

/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/

I have a powerbook (PowerPC) and it seems that I have both 1.4.2 and 1.5 living together. However, I haven't run my LAMS 1.0.x in it for a long time, but it seems that it might be possible if I ensure that my LAMS 1.0.x is running java from the correct version 1.4.2.

Let me run some tests and get back to you.

lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 5 Jun 6 23:54 CurrentJDK -> 1.5.0

given the symlinks, currentJDK aliases 1.5.0

maybe if currentJDK were to alias 1.4.2 but unsure i want to go there just yet given other dependencies.

cheers,
Matt

Changing symlink (ln -sf 1.4.2 currentJDK) made no difference to startup of LAMS. No worries - no need for speed. Looking forward to getting more involved as time goes on.

thanks for the help. If you have any other ideas happy to hear them, but am perfectly happy to wait a little for v2 beta as you suggest.

Matt

I think it will take a bit more than just the ln -sf, as the JAVA_HOME paths might be different. Let me have a poke with it to see if I can get this to work. It should be possible to add a few variables to the LAMS 1.0.x start script to declare the JAVA_* variables to be the 1.4.2 ones... let me play with it and see how I go. Give me a few days as we are going mad with getting LAMS 2.0 beta out of the door by the end of next week.

Cheers,

Ernie

Ernie,

greatly appreciated but please no need. I fully appreciate what it's like getting software out the door. Knowing that v2.0 is imminent I am more than happy to wait.

Matt,

On the Mac OSX Java FAQ page, I found out this:

2: Does Mac OS X support multiple J2SE versions on a single OS installation?

Mac OS X Tiger currently supports three major JDK versions (1.3.1, 1.4.2, 1.5.0). The standard command-line commands such as java and javac typically use the latest available version (1.5 in the case of Mac OS X Tiger). Apple developer tools such as Jar Bundler and Xcode both allow you to request a minimum or specific Java version for double-clickable apps to use. Please see the Java 1.4 Info.plist Dictionary Keys documentation for details on how this is done. End users can specify which version of Java should be used for applications and Applets using the Java Preferences Application located at /Applications/Utilities/Java/J2SE 5.0/Java Preferences.app.

That should do the trick. Let us know how it goes.

Thanks,

Ernie

Try this -

Edit the file /usr/local/lams-1.0.2/etc/lams.conf

Add this line:
export JAVA_HOME=/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.4.2/Home

It doesn't seem to be the 'proper' way, but it may get you straight to the version of Java that you want to use... see if it works.

That second one seems to be saying that a port is being used;

java.rmi.ServerException: Could not bind home;

Maybe there's an instance of LAMS still running?

See point no. 3 in this post http://www.lamscommunity.org/dotlrn/clubs/technicalcommunity/forums/message-view?message%5fid=264239#267008

Probably there were some instances of JBoss that were still running on the system after clicking 'stop lams server'.
