Solved java: Exec format error

[~]$ java -version

any idea why I get this error? it's been persisting for some time now, and I was hoping it would resolve with some update.

linux64 is for 64-bit Linux applications only. java/linux-oracle-jdk18 however is 32-bit, so you'll have to also load linux.ko: kldload linux

Or just put this in /etc/rc.conf which does the right thing without a lot of fuss

linux_enable="YES"

then service abi restart to load them without a reboot.

thank you. and derp. I thought linux_common meant linux had already been loaded.
This was already in my rc.conf but I've noticed that bootpool is unmounted at some point, during startup and then the modules can't be found to be l loaded
