Hi team, dependabot made a PR to update pax-web in jndi to version 9.x in https://github.com/apache/aries/pull/356 It didn't pass the tests because of 8 major versions bump and some other deps needs to be added.
Pax web 9.x seems not to support java 8 in runtime so I skipped it in https://github.com/apache/aries/pull/450 and the highest available version to update is 8.x In https://github.com/apache/aries/pull/452 I was able to bump many of the JNDI dependencies including pax-web but only to the highest 6.x version. Version 7.x of pax-web wasn't able to start and I tried 8.x . pax-web-extender-war in the version 8.x depends on tomcat so it seems to be better to switch to pax-web-tomcat-bundle to not bring jetty and tomcat deps. Unfortunately, it does not work because tomcat stucks in starting servlet container. You can see it in https://github.com/apache/aries/pull/453 Question: Do you know why in pax-exam tests tomcat is not able to start and how to fix it? -- Regards, Dominik Przybysz
