I have been trying out jpype for python to java work and love it. It
works great on my gentoo box with the java 1.4.2 blackdown sdk.
I am now trying it on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 for access to business
intelligence tools (JasperReports, Mondrian, Pentaho, etc) for which we
don't have analogous tools in cpython yet. My idea it to use jpype in
a cherrypy application server to tie these java BI tools into a website
interface without having to delve into the more complex java J2EE
application servers and lose all the python libraries that I know and
love.
Here is my problem.
When trying to start the jvm with the sun jre I get this error.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# python2.4
Python 2.4.2 (#1, Dec 1 2005, 05:44:04)

>>> import jpype
>>> jpype.startJVM('/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.4.2-sun/jre/lib/i386/client/libjvm.so')
Error occurred during initialization of VM

and then python dies.
When I try to start the jvm with the ibm jre I get this error.

but the python interpreter is still running.
Can anyone point me in the right direction so I can fix this?
Thanks
