<font size=2 face="sans-serif">Hello Debian Java Maintainers,</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I'm currently testing Tomcat5.5 on a
brand new install of Debian 5.0/s390 on a System z9 EC.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Debian runs as a guest of z/VM 5.4,
but I don't think this is related to the problem I see.<br>
I installed Tomcat through the command 'sudo apt-get install tomcat5.5',
that pulled in all the required dependencies.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">All configured is by default, I didn't
touch a single file yet. </font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">When I try to start tomcat, either manually
(sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat5.5 start) or automatically during the boot process,
it keeps failing, with the following error meesage:</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Feb 23 15:43:18 debkvm jsvc.exec[997]:
Cannot dynamically link to /usr/lib/jvm/default-java/jre/lib/s390/client/libjvm.so</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Feb 23 15:43:18 debkvm jsvc.exec[997]:
/usr/lib/libgcj.so.90: undefined symbol: __data_start</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Looks like there's a missing symbol
somewhere, but I'm unfortunately unable to debug more in depth...</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">gcj is installed correctly:</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">guigui@debkvm:~$ java -version</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">java version "1.5.0"</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">gij (GNU libgcj) version 4.3.2</font>

<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I'm not sure the problem is platform-related,
but I didn't manage to find anything in Debian BTS related to this error.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I've no access to a Debian/Intel machine
to do more tests. I did a test in Sid, but the result is the same.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Did I miss something ? Maybe you can
help me ? I'm OK to do some more testing, if required.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">The list of installed packaged is enclosed.
Feel free to ask some more info if needed.</font>
