Bug 137412 – [java-migration] Compile error when emerging dev-java/jboss-module-tomcat-4.0.2

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Uwe Klosa 2006-06-20 13:22:15 UTC]

I had a look into the ebuild file first. But no hint there :)

The error message is:

What happens if you downgrade tomcat from 5.5.17 to 5.5.9?

[Comment 2 Josh Nichols (RETIRED) 2006-06-20 21:10:19 UTC]

My bet is that older releases of tomcat 5.5 used servlet api 2.4.. and later (as in most recent) use servlet api 2.5. Downgrading should reveal if this is the case.

[Comment 3 Uwe Klosa 2006-06-21 02:33:16 UTC]

Downgrading to 5.5.9 helped.

[Comment 4 Vlastimil Babka (Caster) (RETIRED) 2006-06-21 02:45:41 UTC]

Jeez, hope they fix it upstream or something, or we need slots for every minor version :)

[Comment 5 Josh Nichols (RETIRED) 2006-06-21 06:31:33 UTC]

That would be really bad if we had to slot tomcat like that, imo. Hopefully, it can be gotten around by bumping servletapi...

[Comment 6 Josh Nichols (RETIRED) 2006-07-02 19:26:58 UTC]

The jboss stuff in our overlays needs updating real bad. There are likely newer versions of jboss that are cool with newer tomcats...

[Comment 7 William L. Thomson Jr. (RETIRED) 2007-05-15 04:56:03 UTC]

Closing bug as this is no longer in tree. Ebuild has been moved to java-experimental overlay. It's not been touched in quite a while and I believe current JBoss efforts are not touching this package. Might need to be moved to junkyard.
