setuid bit on java - UnsatisfiedLinkError

843811Sep 26 2005

Scenario:
set user id bit for java executable for linux is set as this

-rwsr-sr-x 1 root root 64492 Aug 27 05:33 java

Now you login as non-root and run a Java Program's main method with following code

System.out.println(java.awt.Component);
System.out.println(Class.forName("java.awt.Component"));

The first line of code is sucessful, but the second line is not.
It throws the UnsatisfiedLinkError on line 2.

java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /opt/SnappimonAgent/jre/lib/i386/libawt.so: libmlib_image.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file
ry

But when run as root, it just runs fine.

Can any body breaks it?
