[Pljava-dev] JNI_CreateJVM symbole not found in pljava.so when install.sql launched

[Thomas Hallgren]

Hi Christophe,
Feel free to add yourself to the tada wiki. A comment with your description would be very 
welcome here http://wiki.tada.se/wiki/display/pljava/Posix+Installation. That way it stands 
a good chance to be included in the documentation when I get around to it.

Kind Regards,
Thomas Hallgren
