I have downloaded j3d-1_5_2-linux-i586.zip, and unpacked j3dcore.jar, j3dutils.jar, v

Answer 1

I recently ran into this same problem, here's how I fixed it:

Run 'strace java filename' and look near the top for lines like "open("/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre/bin/../lib/amd64/libpthread.so" which will tell you what binaries your system is loading.

In my case, it's amd64 that matters.

Go back to the java3d download page and download the binaries for (in this case) amd64 verson and install that. Overwrite the .so files in lib/ext (vecmath, j3dcore, and j3dutils).

Test your java3d program again, it should be working.
