install instructions for IceJ 2.0.0

The installation instructions for Ice for Java 2.0.0 state:
"Freeze for Java uses Berkeley DB as its underlying database. It requires
Berkeley DB 4.2.52"

However, when I run the tests I get the following error:
*** running tests in ./test/Freeze/dbmap
starting client... ok
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no db_java-4.1 in java.library.path
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(ClassLoader.java:1491)
...

I tried recompiling Java per the instructions but I get error:
[javac] ./IceJ-2.0.0/src/Freeze/Map.java:172: cannot resolve symbol
[javac] symbol : method setFlags (int)
[javac] location: class com.sleepycat.db.Dbt
[javac] dbValue.setFlags(com.sleepycat.db.Db.DB_DBT_PARTIAL);
[javac] ^

...

I recall having similar problems when I installed Ice 1.5.1 but I was able to recompile the Java source. Any ideas? Whatever the solution, I need it to work with both the C++ and Java implementations of Ice.

Thanks!

  • You need to include the jar for Berkeley DB in your CLASSPATH.

    It looks like you need to build Berkeley DB 4.2.52, and that you have Berkeley DB 4.1.x 's jar file in your CLASSPATH.

  • No, I believe everything is setup correctly. I rebuilt the Berkeley DB 4.2.52 several months ago when I installed Ice 1.5.1 and the 4.2.52 jar file is in my classpath.


    Here is my environment
    $ echo $CLASSPATH
    /opt/db-4.2.52/lib/db.jar:/home/tvedt/Ice_source/IceJ-2.0.0/lib/Ice.jar

    $ ls -la /opt/db-4.2.52/lib/db.jar
    -r--r--r-- 1 root root 157421 Sep 2 14:58 /opt/db-4.2.52/lib/db.jar

    $ ls -la /home/tvedt/Ice_source/IceJ-2.0.0/lib/Ice.jar
    -rw-r--r-- 1 tvedt software 702464 Nov 20 08:01
    /home/tvedt/Ice_source/IceJ-2.0.0/lib/Ice.jar

    $ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    /opt/db-4.2.52/lib:/opt/Ice-2.0.0/lib


    Here is what I see when I run the tests
    $python allTests.py

    *** running tests in ./test/Ice/operations
    tests with regular server.
    starting server... ok

    ... (all tests report ok until Freeze)

    *** running tests in ./test/Freeze/dbmap
    starting client... ok

    The Java API of Berkeley DB is written using JNI.

    > Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no db_java-4.1 in java.library.path

    This means Berkeley DB is trying to load the 4.1 version of the C Berkeley DB/Java library. Only the 4.1 db.jar does this.

  • You are correct. There was an older version of db.jar in my jre/lib/ext directory. My apologies!!!
