Bug#216466: Repeat of BEA JVM test case for #216466

[Matt Taggart <taggart@debian.org>]

Hi,

I have an ia64 unstable system running the experimental glibc 2.3.2.ds1-5. I 
downloaded the BEA JVM installer mentioned previously in this thread. Here's 
what I get when I try to run it,

   root@brak:~# ./jrockit-8.1sp1-j2se1.4.1-linux64.bin 
   Extracting 0%.......................................................
   ............................................100%
   ** Error during execution, error code = 11.

if I run it with strace I get the same thing and in the strace output

   --- SIGCHLD (Child exited) @ 2000000000093651 (ba4) ---
   write(2, "** Error during execution, error"..., 44) = 44

So to catch the child's strace info I added -f. This causes it to write

   root@brak:~# strace -f -o /tmp/strace
    ./jrockit-8.1sp1-j2se1.4.1-linux64.bin 
   Extracting 0%.......................................................
   ............................................100%

and then hang. I can see that it unpacks some stuff in /tmp and fires
up a process called "java" which I'd guess is a jvm. The last thing in
the strace output is,

   2984  stat("/tmp/filed4QpGf/jre141/jre/lib/ia64/jrockit/libjvm.so",
   {st_mode=S_IFREG|0775, st_size=4293469, ...}) = 0

So I figured it might be trying to run a java based GUI installer
(and I don't run an X server on that box) so I thought I'd test
with the unstable verison of glibc (2.3.2-8), 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
root@brak:~# ./jrockit-8.1sp1-j2se1.4.1-linux64.bin 
Extracting 0%.......................................................
............................................100%
Unable to instantiate GUI, defaulting to console mode.





<------------- BEA WebLogic JRockit 8.1 SP1 SDK (64 bit) ------------->

Welcome:


This installer will guide you through the installation of 
BEA WebLogic JRockit 8.1 SP1 SDK (64 bit). Type "Next" or enter
 to proceed to the next prompt.  If you want to change data 
 entered previously, type "Previous".  You may quit the installer at
 any time by typing "Exit".

Enter [Exit][Next]> 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

So it was trying to run an install GUI, and knows what to do when it
can't.

So 2.3.2.ds1-5 definitely breaks the installer here.

HTH,
