Just saying that in a previous problem with 2.1.9 they were mentioning JDK1.4
(still giving issues) and JDK1.3 running fine. Hence my remark. Although I
worked with really old versions of Cocoon I don't know what the installation /
build requirements are.
I found this in the readme.txt for 2.1.9:
Requirements
------------
Cocoon has been designed to coexist and interoperate side-by-side with your
existing J2EE solutions or to give them new functionality without requiring
any change in the existing infrastructure.
Cocoon is implemented both as a Java servlet and a Java command line
application. The following requirements exist for installing it:
o A Java 1.3 or later compatible virtual machine for your operating system.
o A Servlet API 2.2 compatible Servlet Engine or J2EE Application Server.
[not required for command line operation]
Kind regards,
Robby

What JDK are you using? It seems like you will need a very old JDK for this
branch to work.
Hum, nice spot :-)
I remember that last time I run C2.1 I was on JDK 1.5, but I probably ran the
tests below with latest JDK 6: I'll give a try ASAP with latest 1.5
downloadable from Oracle website.
Thanks!

Hi team,
I recently came again across annoying 2.1 bugs, which I have proposed patches
for, and realized that I received almost no answers to my "what's the future of
Cocoon 2.1" e-mail, and that
Robby
my patches have not been reviewed nor committed.
I have found and patched a new one this morning :
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COCOON-2319
As I previously said, I fully understand that current Cocoon committers are
focused on Cocoon 3, and that they probably have no great interest to old
maintenance releases.
Again, I totally volunteer to help to maintain and release 2.1.x branch, as I
have dozens of production applications on top of it, running with a
a-lot-patched Cocoon.
Please tell me what I can do to help.
Hi Cedric,
as I wrote in [8], here it follows what I did for building C2.1 trunk (in order
to start applying your patches, of course):
1. svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cocoon/branches/BRANCH_2_1_X
cocoon-2_1_X
2. cp blocks.properties local.blocks.properties
3. set include.all.blocks=true
4. ./build.sh
5. ./build.sh test
resulted in 6 test failures (DefaultRunnableManagerTestCase)
Am I doing something wrong?

Hi Cocoon team,
A little more than one year ago, I sent a mail [1] to this list, to get
feedbacks about usage of Cocoon 2.1.x, 3 years after the last release.
I must admit that I received many more answers (privately and publicly on the
list) than I could have expected first.
This proved me the vitality of the 2.1.x community.
So I began to open some tickets [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] and provide some
patches gathered during the last years on my projects, but unfortunately, I
received nearly no feedback from committers around here.
Is there still any interest from devs for the 2.1.x branch ?
Could someone review the patches ? I obviously volunteer to help, to stop
having to run dozen apps with a patched Cocoon.
Has someone interest to prepare and schedule a 2.1.12 maintenance release ?
Best regards,
Cédric
