After spending a couple hours trying to fix or work around this issue, I eventually just decided that the only workaround for now is a downgrade. So I installed jetty and libjetty-extra-java 6.1.26-ubuntu1, but then bumped into a problem with the most recent version of libtomcat6-java (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=740596), so I manually downloaded and installed the earlier packaged version of libtomcat6-java (6.0.37-1). I'm happy to report that Solr now works on my machine.
Better would be if jetty6 were fixed to only depend on libtomcat6-java again instead of libtomcat7-java, I suspect, along with a backport of the fixes that were done to resolve the Debian bug mentioned above; but for my purposes, I'm content to just stick with earlier packages for what is a localhost-only setup. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1508562 Title: Broken symlinks for JSP support in libjetty-extra-java version 6.1.26-1ubuntu1.1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jetty/+bug/1508562/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
