IPlanet WS - JVM hang

[Anonymous]

I have a problem with the IPlanet WebServer 4.1 SP7, installed in a Linux Platform (Mandrake 8.1 based on 2.4.2 kernel). I have installed the web server with my own JDK (j2se1.4 from Sun) but the JVM hangs if the servlet engine is enabled. When I try to start up the server the errorlog shows repeteadly this message:
[23/Aug/2002:09:17:43] info ( 6543): Exiting JVM due to: jvm_abort () and jvm.exitOnAbort > 0
[23/Aug/2002:09:17:43] info ( 6543): JVM exit statistics: AttachedThreads/Max=0/0, ActiveThreads/Max=0/0
When I disable the servlet engine the server works correctly. The start-jvm file in https-admserv have the all the jar files that the release notes recommend (dt, tools, iiimp, i18n, rt) but I copied manually the iiimp.jar file, because the j2se1.4 doesn�t have it. (I found the iiimp.jar file in a dreamweaver installation).
Does anybody knows what can be happening? I�m stuck with this, and I will appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.

I think 4.1 SP7 is not certified with j2se1.4. Try installing the right JVM version(1.3).

Hi again...
Thanks for your answer. I tried the jdk1.3 but still not working, for the same reason (Exiting JVM). Also, the iiimp.jar file didn�t came with the installation. What can be wrong? I changed the start-jvm file in https-admserv in order to point to the new jdk1.3 installation, should I change it anywhere else? Which is the recommended jdk version for linux to Iplanet 4.1? please help me.
Thanks again.

Switch to the Web Server Administration Server, select the Global Settings tab, and use the Configure JRE/JDK Paths page. You can also change the path to the JDK in this page.

I tried to upgrade jvm on 4.1 sometime ago and came to know that 1.3 does not work on 4.1 though am not sure on the specific patch that you are working on(sp7). Try vesion 6.0 and you should be fine.
