Hi

What could be the reason for Memory Fault (Core dumped)

and Segmentation Fault(Core dumped)?

i am getting this error when i try to use the command

java -version or javac
(JAVA_HOME environment variable is available)

What version of java are you running and are you putting a full path in there?
I'd try the following:
file `which java`
`which java` -version

I've come across this before when copying binaries across between different system types (x86 to sparc). Or really dorked up libraries (a precompiled file with VERY different versions of libraries).

From My understanding, Segmentation fault and Memory fault (coredump) are same. All are happenening because of SIGSEGV signal.

Causes for SEGV and BUS signals:

SIGSEGV
SEGV_MAPERR address not mapped to object
SEGV_ACCERR invalid permissions for mapped object
SIGBUS
BUS_ADRALN invalid address alignment
BUS_ADRERR non-existent physical address
BUS_OBJERR object specific hardware error
