Still investigating. Moving down to p2 since workaround exists: download the latest Tomcat and use it instead of the bundled one. I've filed this bug in Tomcat bugzilla http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35266. The tomcat issue has been marked as a duplicate of the following issue http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34856. This issue is specific for the bundled Tomcat running on JDK 5.0 on Mac OS X and it is caused by a bug in javac, which is filed as: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6295519 Please note that non bundled Tomcat does not suffer from this issue, since the standard Apache Tomcat distribution uses JDT compiler instead of javac. Of course, this is valid as long as the JDT compiler is used. Possible work-arounds: 1) use the latest Apple JDK 5.0 dev build, in which the javac bug is already fixed 2) configure bundled Tomcat to use JDT compiler instead of javac, for more info refer to http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/jasper-howto.html Closing this issue as FIXED, since the Java 1.5.0_05 for Mac OS X, which contains the javac bug fix, is finally out. Everyone struggling with this issue should switch to the latest JDK release. VERIFIED |
