I recently updated from 9.10 to 10.4.1 LTS, and at the same time switched from Sun Java to OpenJDK.

A java-based VPN app (Juniper Networks) that I use to connect to my office's network isn't working right. It's coming really close (where it's never worked with OpenJDK in the past), but after starting successfully, I get an immediate "Session Timeout" dialog and the application quits, as if I had been idle for 30 minutes.


When I've had trouble like this in other situations, it's always been a time zone issue, so I looked into that. It turns out that Java has indeed had time zone issues with Linux in the past (see http://www.minaret.biz/tips/timezone.html) but I checked (with the java program included in that link) and it appears that my java install is inheriting the default time zone properly.


Has anyone seen this before? Any thoughts on how to approach it?

Here are my java installed packages, in case it helps:

cacao-source - Source for CACAO, a Java virtual machine
default-jdk - Standard Java or Java compatible Development Kit

default-jdk-doc - Standard Java or Java compatible Development Kit (documentation)
default-jre - Standard Java or Java compatible Runtime
default-jre-headless - Standard Java or Java compatible Runtime (headless)

freemind - Java Program for creating and viewing Mindmaps
icedtea-6-jre-cacao - Alternative JVM for OpenJDK, using Cacao
icedtea6-plugin - web browser plugin based on OpenJDK and IcedTea to execute Java applets
openjdk-6-dbg - Java runtime based on OpenJDK (debugging symbols)

openjdk-6-demo - Java runtime based on OpenJDK (demos and examples)
openjdk-6-doc - OpenJDK Development Kit (JDK) documentation
openjdk-6-jdk - OpenJDK Development Kit (JDK)
openjdk-6-jre - OpenJDK Java runtime, using Hotspot JIT

openjdk-6-jre-headless - OpenJDK Java runtime, using Hotspot JIT (headless)
openjdk-6-jre-lib - OpenJDK Java runtime (architecture independent libraries)
openjdk-6-source - OpenJDK Development Kit (JDK) source files

openjdk-6-jre-zero - Alternative JVM for OpenJDK, using Zero/Shark

Thanks,
Matt

I have yet to see OpenJDK work as well as Sun/Oracle java. I'd suggest
dumping OpenJDK, install Sun Java and sin no more.

But that was just the thing! It's soooo close to working. In the past OpenJDK has never been able to even fire up the app :-). But I will go back to corporate Java if I must.

"Soooo close" counts only in horseshoes and hand-grenades.

You left out thermonuclear devices, and close is relative....

Proof of this is Windows - it's "Soooo close" to being a real operating system.
