I just as of right now updated my computer with the latest updates from Redhat for Redhat 7.2 using up2date. I then rebooted and downloaded and the new stable build of Eclipse-Motif that was posted today. I unzipped Eclipse under /usr/local and invoked Eclipse from $HOME from the commandline. Eclipse displays the Eclipse logo but no more and appears to be stalled/crashed. Following is the error log that Eclipse wrote. An unexpected exception has been detected in native code outside the VM. Unexpected Signal : 11 occurred at PC=0x403e2071 Function name=strlen Library=/lib/i686/libc.so.6 Current Java thread: at org.eclipse.swt.internal.motif.OS.XmCreateScrolledList(Native Method) at

Did Eclipse work before you installed the patches? The problem you are reporting sounds like the wrong motif library was found. Eclipse ships with it's own copy and relies on it being found.
McQ have you seen other reports like this? From the description above it's not clear if Eclipse worked before on the clients machine. I run 7.2 without any updates on my ThinkPad and had no trouble.
Sorry that I did not respond earlier. No, Eclipse did not work before I installed the patches. But I tried. But then again - that was with the previous release of Eclipse. At that time I filed bug report #7332. This is what I do to install 1. login as root 2. download eclipse-SDK-20020125-linux-motif.zip into /usr/local 3. unzip the zip-file. I tried both using "unzip" and the KDE Archiver. 4. logout from root and login as normal user 5. create workspace directory in the home directory 6. change default to workspace directory 7. invoke eclipse using the command /usr/local/eclipse/eclipse It looks to me as if Eclipse is indeed applying the Motif files that is bundled with it - see included listing that I got using "ls -al" (As seen from the file dates - I tried again. I deleted and re-downloaded and re-installed. But I get the same error) My login script(s) contains nothing related to Motif. I have included these as well - for just in case. Thanks >ls -al total 2028 drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Jan 25 07:42 . drwxr-xr-x 23 root root 4096 Feb 6 23:13 .. -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2712 Jan 25 07:40 about.html -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2726 Jan 25 07:42 buildmanifest.properties -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 16579 Jan 25 07:40 cpl-v05.html -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 26166 Jan 25 07:40 eclipse -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 10489 Jan 25 07:40 eclipse_icon.xpm drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jan 25 07:42 install -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 34573 Jan 25 07:40 launchersrc.zip lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Feb 6 23:13 libXm.so -> libXm.so.2.1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Feb 6 23:13 libXm.so.2 -> libXm.so.2.1 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1915756 Jan 25 07:40 libXm.so.2.1 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3664 Jan 25 07:40 notice.html drwxr-xr-x 54 root root 4096 Jan 25 07:41 plugins drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 25 07:40 readme drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 25 07:40 splash -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8371 Jan 25 07:40 startup.jar -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7537 Jan 25 07:40 startupsrc.zip # .bashrc # User specific aliases and functions # Source global definitions if [ -f /etc/bashrc ]; then . /etc/bashrc fi # .bash_profile # Get the aliases and functions if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then . ~/.bashrc fi # User specific environment and startup programs unset USERNAME PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin # Qt.

The particular pattern shown in the stack trace typically indicates that the user's machine is configured in such a way that the libXm.so which is being invoked is not the one provided with Eclipse. Ensure that the LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set appropriately.
Thanks. It now works. What I did is create the following 3 line script in $HOME to start Eclipse ECLIPSE_HOME=/usr/local/eclipse LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ECLIPSE_HOME:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH $ECLIPSE_HOME/eclipse Note the absense of EXPORT of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH - don't want any other app but Eclipse to use the path. Suggestion: Leave a hint about this in the installation doc for Eclipse to avoid Linux newbie's like me filing bug reports on what is not a bug.
