jdk1.5.0_08 install - can not execute binary file

java_ascii · 09-17-2009, 11:25 AM

I have java jdk1.5.0_08 installed on linux x86_64 architecture and I can execute java -version no problem.

I took the same binaries and installed on ia64 architecture and the command java -version gives and error "cannot execute binary file"

The Linux OS versions are 2.6.18-128.1.10.el5 on x86_64 and 2.6.18-128.4.1.el5 on ia64

Do you know whether the jdk1.5.0_08 binaries are compatible between x86_64 and ia64 architecture. The answer may be no, but I may be wrong and there could be some other issue.

Thanks for your response.

Where can I get the jdk1.5.0_08 specific to ia64 architecture for Linux version 2.6.18-128.4.1.e15

Thanks again

Have you considered acquiring the correct binaries for the target platform? They exist, it is a matter of installing them.

For some reason, the wheels off my Mack truck won't fit on my bicycle. I intend to complain.
