Davmail Java terminates with SIGSEGV after 11.10 Upgrade

  • 772

One of my favorite programs, davmail, crashes now after upgrading to 11.10. Just checking if there is a quick fix before I submit a bug report. Thanks.

    I solved by installing openjdk-7-jre, and then linking the /usr/bin/davmail script to use the JDK1.7 java binary.

  2. After installing openjdk7, do this:

    sudo update-alternatives --set java /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-i386/jre/bin/java
