Hi all, another user pointed out that Tomcat4 versions later than 4.1.34 dont work properly on NetWare; when you try to call any of the jsp examples, f.e. snoop.jsp, then you receive an HTTP Status 500: An error occurred at line: -1 in the jsp file: null full error report here: http://www.gknw.net/test/tomcat/Apache%20Tomcat-4_1_37%20-%20Error%20report.htm
so it seems that Tomcat 4.1.36 / 4.1.37 are no longer able to compile jsp. The same user also reported that there was a change with the Ant version: TC 4.1.34 uses Ant 1.5, and TC 4.1.36 and later uses Ant 1.7. Indeed the issue can be fixed with only copying ant.jar from TC 4.1.34 over to TC 4.1.36 or 4.1.37; after that all works fine as usual. I googled for that error, and got tons back, however as usual nothing but same question and no solution; only that other recommended to upgrade JDK to 1.5 - and indeed some then reported back that it works. But when I look at the Ant page: http://ant.apache.org/manual/install.html#sysrequirements I can read there that Ant 1.7 requires JDK 1.3 only which is same as what the TC 4.1.x docs say; and the version I currently run on NetWare is: Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_13) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2, mixed mode) We have also TC 5.0.x and even TC 5.5.x running on NetWare, so I wonder what here breaks with TC 4.1.37? I hope someone can give me some hints what's missing; my guess is that Ant 1.7 requires now some additional pieces with the classpath, whatever....
