Solved: no iKVM64 in java.library.path on SuperMicro IP KVM
Posted in Technical on September 30th, 2011 by p14nd4I recently purchased a Super Micro X7SPA-HF-D525 motherboard, and was excited to try out the IP-KVM feature. While I was able to log into the web interface fine, launching the console redirection java webapplet partially proceeded, but eventually failed for me with an error no iKVM64 in java.library.path
. I was able to experiment a bit and developed a patch (below) for the launch.jnlp file served for the iKVM applet that enabled this to run on my system (i.e. downloaded the launch.jnlp, patched it, then ran with javaws launch.jnlp). When run without the patch, Java fails to download liblinux_x86_64.jar for me, because it only tries the following two URLs, which don’t contain the relevant file: https://192.168.0.207:443/liblinux_x86_64.jar?version-id=1.0.3 and https://192.168.0.207:443/liblinux_x86_64.jar (while the actual path is something like /liblinux_x86_64__V1.0.3.jar.pack.gz).
