Java HotSpot Virtual Machine

Hi,

We have embedded Java to our software through JNI. We did upgrade to our Java version to 1.6.0_06 recently, one reason we did this was that 1.4.2 wouldn't start on Linux (Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3) environments. Now, 1.6.0_06 starts ok, and usually runs for 5-6 hours and then crashes with error that is beyond our knowledge. We've had this problem with several of our customers so if anyone could give us a hint what to do with it?

The error we get keeps pointing to safepoint.cpp line 261.

Here's the error log, I couldn't attach full log because of message size limit, but let me know if you need anything else:

#
# An unexpected error has been detected by Java Runtime Environment:
#
# Internal Error (safepoint.cpp:261), pid=13063, tid=13589424
# Error: guarantee(PageArmed == 0,"invariant")
