Just out of curiosity, why do you want/need to use a container?
I wanted to test JBuilder 2005 with a lightweight system. The problem with JBuilder 2005 is, that this software is nearly 10 years old and unsupported. So my task is: Find a (32 Bit) Linux distribution, which is old enough to run this software correctly. I thought, that LXC would be good for this task, because with LXC I can quickly test some distributions.
I guess that would work, but it seems like a lot of work - wouldn't it be easier to try to figure out why JBuilder can't run on more recent systems?
There is an incompatibility with newer Linux kernels or with newer libraries in this software:
JBuilder2005 FC4 AMD64 http://www.borlandtalk.com/jbuilder2005-fc4-amd64-vt90132.html
Bug 190333 - jbuilderx opentool failure with 2.6.16 kernels https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=190333
Both of these seem to be related to SElinux, which probably isn't active on your openSUSE system. Are you seeing the same problems?
Of course, if this software does not run with newer kernels, LXC and Chroot does not help me. It only helps to test other libraries and configurations.
With jbuilder being just an application, the kernel most probably will not matter much.
On 64 Bit openSUSE 13.1 it prints this error during startup:
$ /opt/Borland/JBuilder2005/bin/jbuilder count = 145, total = 522 count = 145, total = 522 Use -verbose for details on OpenTool failures *** OpenTool com.borland.jbuilder.webservices.personality.WebServicesPersonality failed to initialize *** OpenTool com.borland.jbuilder.personality.JBuilderPersonalities failed to initialize *** OpenTool com.borland.jbuilder.JBuilderCore failed to initialize
Not exactly very informative :-(
Yes, of course. But installing 32 bit libraries alone does not help here. See above.
Just my opinion, it seems like a bit of a stretch to conclude from those three errors that you need an older distro :-) I would try to focus on figuring out what the real problem is - my gut feeling says it's about java. Maybe try changing the JDK for instance. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (4.8°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
