Hello, I am not sure if this is a problem so much with Tomcat or with Ant. When I try to compile Tomcat 4.1.24 using Sun JDK 1.3.1 on Redhat 9 I get the following error:
--------------------------------------------------------------------- build-catalina: [javac] Compiling 355 source files to /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.24-src/catalina/build/server/classes [javac] Note: 18 files use or override a deprecated API. Recompile with "-deprecation" for details. [javac] 1 warning [copy] Copying 76 files to /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.24-src/catalina/build/server/classes BUILD FAILED file:/usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.24-src/catalina/build.xml:854: Failed to copy /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.24-src/catalina/src/share/org/apache/catalina/va lves/LocalStrings_fr.properties to /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.24-src/catalina/build/server/classes/org/apache/ catalina/valves/LocalStrings_fr.properties due to null Total time: 46 seconds --------------------------------------------------------------------- I checked and the file it is trying to copy does exist in the correct location and the target directory also exists. Tomcat compiles fine if I use JSDK 1.4 but the application to be run on tomcat unfortunately cannot be compiled under JDK1.4 as some of the libraries are newer (mainly the java.sql stuff) and until we can test our stuff properly we dare not use JDK1.4. I also tried downloading the src for Ant and compiling it... got a similar error... anybody have any ideas? -------------------------- Java Version ----------------------------- java version "1.3.1_09" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1_09-b03) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.1_09-b03, mixed mode) --------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------- Apache Ant Version ----------------------- Apache Ant version 1.5.4 compiled on August 12 2003 --------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
