SP3 upgrade errors

Avatar

Level 1

Hi All,

I'm trying to upgrade my Linux/jboss Livecycle instance to SP3.  Download was fine, and MD5s check out, started to run the patch, and it says its looking for a JRE, and then kicks back the prompt.  I turned on logging and got this:

The JVM does exit in /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_19 and seems to work fine otherwise.  It sun Java 5.0 SE JDK. 
Anyone else run into anything similar? (And hopefully have a fix).

What output do you get for the following commands:

java -version

which java

Here you go

root@cyclotron sp3# which java

/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_19/bin/java

root@cyclotron sp3# java -version

java version "1.5.0_19"

Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_19-b02)

Did you ever solve this problem?   I'm using the same jvm on Linux 64 bit.

Whenever I launch ./x86_linux_adobe_livecycle_8_2_patch.bin, I'm getting "Initializing Wizard........" and it kicks back to the prompt.  I can't find any log files.

Yes, two things.  Firstly, make sure your DISPLAY variable is set.  See if you can run an app like xclock or something, and make sure it pops up on whatever the DISPLAY variable is set to.  Secondly, and this is really strange, you have to specify the full path to the executable.  If it is in say, /root/sp3 you have to run the command like this:

/root/sp3/x86_linux_adobe_livecycle_8_2_patch.bin

That did the trick for me.

Thanks, but using the full path didn't matter.  The installer still crashes.  I'm using Redhat 5 64 bit, so that might make a difference.  Let's see what support says.

I don't think so.  I'm able to launch the installer for the quick fix that's included with the service pack.

When I initially launch the script, I'm getting a "/bin/sh^M: bad interpreter" error.  When I use dos2unix to fix that problem, the installer crashes with the message from the OP.

The .bin file might be corrupted.

Try bypassing the .bin script and run directly:

java -jar livecycle.jar
