Nope. We intend to support Solaris with our application out of the box, and then after we get problems like this worked out, Linux and FreeBSD. > > > Does this look more like a cocoon problem or an excalibur problem? > > > > > > > It looks like you have the wront Event JAR in your classpath. > > I can reproduce this exception on Linux/PPC/blackdown-1.3 .

Yep, going to a 1.4 JDK with our cocoon-based application would be a huge headache at the current time, especially since 1.4 is even more alpha quality under FreeBSD than 1.3.1 is (that and API's changing / being deprecated & the jsse stuff changing -- I cringe at the day we move to 1.4!) Since we've verified that there *IS* a problem with something, can one of the cocoon/excalibur guys respond to this and give a possible workaround or analyze this and see if it is a non-trivial fix? If it is non-trivial, then just tell us all to piss off and use a OS that the jdk is 'officially' supported on. :-D Appreciate all the help. thanks, rob
