I had a bug starting tomcat6 with (commons-daemon). The problem was that common-daemons was not able to register native methods (with commons-daemon.jar). Digging into the problem made me find that the file commons-daemon.jar distributed in http://apache.infocom.ua/tomcat/tomcat-6/v6.0.29/src/apache-tomcat-6.0.29-src.tar.gz
There is not commons-daemon.jar distributed in the Tomcat source download. It is only contained in the binary downloads.
was not compatible with the (only) version of common-daemons wich is distributed right now (http://www.eu.apache.org/dist/commons/daemon/source/). Everything worked fine when I got a copy of 1.0.2 from the svn tags.
Right now the recent version is 1.0.3 not 1.0.2. It is likely, that in a few days it'll be 1.0.4. Did you mean 1.0.3?
So since the common-daemons-1.0.2 is no more distributed and the jar distributed in tomcat-6.0.29 seems to be in version 2, do you think it would be a good idea to to update tomcat6.0.29-src.tar.gz with the common-daemons-1.0.3.jar? Actually almost nobody will ever compile common-daemons-1.0,2 again since the archive is no more available.
All old versions are still available at archive.apache.org/dist. No ASF distributed software version ever goes away :)
Dependencies and optional software bundled with Tomcat are usually updated with regular Tomcat releases. In this case I expect 6.0.30 is not too far away (couple of weeks maybe) and will contain daemon 1.0.3 or likely even 1.0.4 then.
The change for daemon 1.0.3 was done in August already, but not yet released. See:
