Resolution:
Description:
====================================
This error happened when you tried to use the startagent, starthma or any other script under &lthawk>/bin folder to start Hawk applications.

Environment:
====================================
OS: Mac OS
TIBCO Hawk 4.8.1

Symptoms:
====================================
When use the script under &lthawk>/bin folder to start the Hawk applications, you will see error like: can not load the tibrvj64 lib at the output and the application aborts.

Cause:
====================================
This is because on this Mac OS system, there is only 64bit JRE. But TIBCO don’t have the 64bit TIBCO Rendezvous for Mac OS which is needed by Hawk. Since 64bit JRE need to load 64bit Rendezvous lib, the application can not start. According to Apple’s statement, after JRE 1.6, there is only 64bit version. Only before JRE 1.6, there are both 32bit and 64bit versions.

Resolution:
====================================
Install 32bit JRE provided by apple for Mac OS and use it to start Hawk.
