problem building 5.5.15
All - Apologies in advance if this should go to tomcat-users but I'm suspecting a problem with the way the source code is being distributed so I'm starting here. I downloaded the source file for 5.5.15 and built it. After installing it I ran bin/version.sh which said I had version 5.5.0.0. Not what I was expecting. So I followed instructions, exactly, from http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/building.html to build directly from subversion. The build went fine. But version.sh still says 5.5.0.0. I was expecting to have 5.5.15. So, did I really just build 5.5.0.0? There was a bug that was supposedly fixed in 5.5.15 that I was experiencing, and I still see this bug when I use this 5.5.0.0 which leads me to conclude I did not really build 5.5.15. Note: I can't use the binary 5.5.15 package because I have a requirement to patch JNDIRealm.java, that's why I am starting from the source code. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

OK thanks for the tip. Is there a document that goes into detail on this?

Re: problem building 5.5.15
Hi Mark, I would be happy to send in patches to the docs on how to build Tomcat but I still need more info. Let me rephrase my initial question. Does there exist a module in the current subversion repository that has predefined all the properties to generate a file that is the same as a release? For example, I am attempting to generate apache-tomcat-5.5.15.tar.gz. The current docs basically say "run ant". Based on your earlier email I know now that I'm supposed to first set the tomcat version properties. OK so after ant finishes up, then what? I think the next step is to go into the build subdir and do 'ant release' but that's guesswork on my part. I'm looking to replicate the way you guys produce official releases.

Re: problem building 5.5.15
Well if the RM must generate this file for each release perhaps then it could be added to subversion? That way any time 'svn update' is used to refresh sources the current Tomcat version can be known.
