Troubleshooting

This section provides you with suggestions for resolving problems you might have when you load Novell JVM for NetWare.


Java Applications Fail to Load

If Java applications have trouble running in the AWT, ensure that the DISPLAY variable is set to127.0.0.1:0.0 or to the IP number of the server. (For more information, see Setting the DISPLAY Environment Variable.)


GUI Fails to Configure

NetWare GUI configuration is usually performed during installation. If NetWare GUI is still not configured after installation, run one of the following two .NCF files.

To configure NetWare GUI for SVGA 256, colors at the server console enter

vesa_rsp

This sets up XFree86 SVGA if your card supports it.

You can also customize your graphics environment by using the XSetup utility, which is used to configure standard SVGA, and accelerated-X Servers on Netware. (For more information, see Configuring XServer Using the XSetup Utility.)


GUI Resolution Is Not Working Properly

If your GUI resolution is not working, configure NetWare GUI for SVGA by entering the following at the server console:

vesa_rsp

This sets the minimum resolution. The GUI resolution can then be changed from the NetWare GUI desktop menu. (For more information, see Configuring XServer Using the XSetup Utility.)


JAVA.NET Does Not Work

If Java applications that use the JAVA.NET package have trouble resolving names, ensure that the TCP/IP configuration includes the file /ETC/RESOLV.CFG, and that WINSOCK is loaded on the server.

The /ETC/RESOLV.CFG file tells the server its fully qualified domain name (FQDN) and allows the server to locate name servers that can resolve names into IP addresses.

Another problem might be that the IP address and DNS name of the client machine need to be added to the /ETC/HOSTS file. The proper entry format is

<IP address> <DNS name>
