kkcv is an input method server for Japanese 4.x Binary Compatibility( BCP) applications. When LDAP is used, kkcv dumps core repeatedly with the error message:
cssd: The process "kkcv.sh" has been killed by sig#134, core dumped |
This problem occurs in all locales when 'ja' locale is installed by using the Languages CD.
Workaround: If you do not need to use the Japanese BCP feature, configure your system not to start input method servers for BCP applications:
Copy /usr/lib/css.d/cs00.sh to /etc/css.d.
# cp -p /usr/lib/css.d/cs00.sh /etc/css.d |
Edit /etc/css.conf and comment out the line of /usr/lib/css.d with `#'.
# /etc/css.conf |
Restart the CS monitor daemon.
# sh /etc/init.d/loc.ja.cssd stop # sh /etc/init.d/loc.ja.cssd start |

Complex Text Language (CTL) support for entering Hebrew, Arabic, or Thai has been implemented in en_US.UTF-8 and European UTF-8 locales, but is not supported in ja_JP.UTF-8, ko.UTF-8, also known as ko_KR.UTF-8, zh.UTF-8, which is also known as zh_CH.UTF-8, and zh_TW.UTF-8 locales.
Workaround: Use the en_US.UTF-8 locale if you need to enter Thai, Arabic, or Hebrew by using CTL. If you want to enter those languages in Asian and Japanese UTF-8 locales, do the following.
Create a symbolic link to common CTL modules. In the instance of ja_JP.UTF-8, use the following commands.:
# cd /usr/lib/locale/ja_JP.UTF-8 # mkdir LO_LTYPE ; cd LO_LTYPE # ln -s ../../common/LO_LTYPE/umle.layout.so.1 \ ja_JP.UTF-8.layout.so.1 # mkdir sparcv9 ; cd sparcv9 # ln -s ../../../common/LO_LTYPE/sparcv9/umle.layout.so.1 \ ja_JP.UTF-8.layout.so.1 |
Edit the /usr/openwin/lib/locale/ja_JP.UTF-8/XLC_LOCALE file by commenting out the load_option delay_nocheck line from Thai, Arabic, or Hebrew entries. For example, in the Thai language, use the following.
# fs14 class (Thai) fs14 { charset TIS620.2533-0:GR font { # load_option delay_nocheck <--- comment out primary TIS620.2533-0:GR } } |
The Add, Modify, and Remove User screens are blank in the Greek locale of the Solstice AdminTool software.
