Hi, next bug in the java/ppc serie: I've installed ant(ant-1.4.1-r3) but whenever I try to execute it, I receive an error message: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/tools/ant/Main I've tried to search for ant libraries containing this class but I didn't find them. Best regards, Guillaume
Created attachment 4006 [details] output of the emerge ant command
Hi again, apparently the building phase failed due to some file location problems, but the documentation, scripts, ... installation phase were successful reporting an overall success status: ouch ! (cp: cannot stat `build/lib/*.jar': No such file or directory chmod: failed to get attributes of `/var/tmp/portage/ant-1.4.1-r3/image//usr/share/ant/lib//*.jar': No such file or directory) Going tracing the problem I've cleaned /var/tmp/portage and /usr/portage/distfiles and re-emerged ant. Now I've got a fully reproducable OutOfMemoryError (see the attached trace). Cheerio, Guillaume
Everything works fine with ant1.5 (masked for ppc).
I tried ant 1.4 on two machines, one with 32MB of RAM, another with 128... it didnt work on the 32MB machine and worked fine on the 128MB Machine so we can say ant requires more than 32MB of RAM. Anyways, ant-1.5 is now unmasked.
My computer as 384160 kB (mostly unused during the build). I guess the blackdown ppc VM is using more memory on it's own. This would explain the problem if you'd run it on a x86 box. BTW ant 1.5 is still masked for ppc (doesn't have the ppc keyword ?). Cheerio, Guillaume
No, both builds were on PPCs (A 4400 and an iBook)... I commited the fix. It may take a couple of hours for it too reach your favorite mirror.
