Got a Java hotspot error while launching DBCA ! Solved.

Hi Friends,

The other day while doing an Oracle Database 11.2.0.3 installation on OEL 6.2 , I encountered the below error :


# An unexpected error has been detected by HotSpot Virtual Machine:
#
#  SIGILL (0x4) at pc=0x00000032a5214be0, pid=27556, tid=140458177951488
#
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (1.5.0_30-b03 mixed mode)
# Problematic frame:
# C  [ld-linux-x86-64.so.2+0x14be0]
#
# An error report file with more information is saved as hs_err_pid27556.log

On looking up with MOS found that this is

Soln: export LD_BIND_NOW=1 , prior starting with the installation.

QuickInfo about LD_BIND_NOW
Direct the dynamic linker to resolve all references immediately. In that way, you can learn before execution of main() begins that the functions invoked by your process actually are defined.
