Description
JDK Info:
---------
java version "1.6.0-ea"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.6.0-ea-b14)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0-ea-b14, mixed mode, sharing)


Platform:
---------
Sparc Sol 10 b72


Steps to Reproduce:
-------------------

I had logged in with unix id (rk145013) and installed mustang b14 (sh file) on sparc solaris 10 b72 machine (administrator.india - 10.12.151.140). Tried launching Java Application cache viewer (javaws). Got the following error message:

administrator:/home/rk145013/jdk1.6.0/bin 194 % ./javaws

(process:24253): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: gtype.c:2253: initialization assertion failed, use g_type_init() prior to this function

(process:24253): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: file gobject.c: line 819: assertion `G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT (object_type)' failed

(process:24253): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: file gobject.c: line 1561: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
#
# An unexpected error has been detected by HotSpot Virtual Machine:
#
#  SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0xfac35ee8, pid=24253, tid=13
#
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (1.6.0-ea-b14 mixed mode, sharing)
# Problematic frame:
# C  [libgconf-2.so.4.1.0+0x25ee8]
#
# An error report file with more information is saved as hs_err_pid24253.log
#
# If you would like to submit a bug report, please visit:

#


I've attached the hs_err_pid24253.log file. I checked with another login id (vt152788). I see the same problem. But root login works fine. 

This problem is not seen with mustang b13 on the same machine (sparc sol 10 b72)

EVALUATION We need to put this fix in both mustang and tiger update. The fix is to apply fix for 6197569: VM crash if java application tries to use system proxy (Solaris10 build 71 CDE only) in to deploy/src/common/unix/native/MSystemProxyHandler.c here is the fix for it in the networking code: http://oldsunweb.ireland/~mm72272/webrev/current/webrev.6197569/ We need to apply the same fix to the deploy workspace ###@###.### 2005-1-07 17:59:19 GMT
