Segmentation Fault

Our Servoy Application Server (on Linux Fedora 4) recently crashed and in trying to bring it back up, I’ve come across a message to the console saying ‘Segmentation Fault’. Even if I try just running JAVA alone (no parameters) the same occurs.

Does anyone know what this is ?

Given that you haven’t told us much,

then a wikipedia definition might be a good place to start:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Segmentation_fault

and a quick Google :

reveals things like:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions … p?t=460576

and that may just get u started in the right direction :)

Hope that helps

ps: Fedora Core…not for Production, I hope ;)

Thanks for the pointers…I’ve had a look at these and the last one may be useful when we come to do a fresh install of JAVA, which I think will be the next step…what do you think ?

Sorry, There wasn’t much else to say about the problem…After it crashed, I tried to bring up Servoy in the usual way ( ./servoy_server.sh & ) and the Segmentation Fault message came up…nothing else.

We are using an onine FC4 Linux Server for initial demo/testing purposes with the customer at this stage and have not changed anything on this server ourselves. It has worked perfectly for some time prior to the crash.

This appears to be a JAVA installation issue but given the fact that we have not changed anything on the JAVA front I’m not sure how this fault has occurred.

If you have any further ideas, I would appreciate them.
