    Hello 
    I am trying to install JAVA SDK8 on a OMVS Unix

    • Uncompressed the file (RACF permission for BPX.FILEATTR are ok)
    • I set PATH Variable
    • When I try to verify the installation typing the command : java -version I get the message

    [1] + Done(137) java -version
    16777258 Killed /usr/lpp/java/J8.0_64/bin/java

    and on Z console

    Completion Code 4093 Reason Code 21C means the following: "Load of the AMODE 64 Language Environment library CELQLIB failed. One possible cause is that the SCEERUN2 data set was not in the program search order." Do you have the SCEERUN2 data set in this user's LINKLST or STEPLIB?

    Hello 
    You are right. Thank you 
    In LINKLST there was only SCEERUN and not SCEERUN2. I have added and the Killed message has disapperead
    The strange thing. From Z/OS OMVS the command "java -version" works
    From a putty rlogin session on that machine the same command fails... any idea ?
     
    # java -version
    Unhandled exception
    Type=Segmentation error vmState=0xffffffff

    There were some similar reported problems in some of the SR5 Java builds (circa 2019). Would you check your release level and try a current (or at least relatively recent) SR6 build if you're not already running one?

    Another possibility is that you're bumping up against a storage (disk) limit somewhere.

    I am already using SR6. 
    So the problem should be the storage. 
    Now I have to understand which one ...

    How much memory has your TSO user assigned? You must have enough memory. Check it in the TSO Logon panel under the entry Size

    You may not be able to change it yourself to a higher value. Talk to your RACF admin to uprise.

    If it's working from TSO OMVS but not from PuTTY, then you need to check how your telnet or SSH server is connecting too RACF to validate your userid. Maybe the OMVS segment needs to be updated with more size.

    Also check the profiles for the user in the USS.

    Hope it helps.
