Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
If someone can prepare a backport, please follow the steps at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure to have 16.04 updated. All the steps documented there need to be followed. In particular, I'm concerned that we: 1) Explain the bug well enough so the SRU team (who are probably not familiar with this package) can understand the real user impact in terms of use case so they can make a decision as to whether backporting the fix to stable releases justifies the regression risk to existing, unaffected users. 2) Make sure that the fixing this in a stable Ubuntu release does not regress existing users of the module not affected by this bug. 3) Have a test case that can be followed by someone not familiar with the package for SRU verification purposes. ** Also affects: tomcat8 (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of नेपाली भाषा समायोजकहरुको समूह, which is subscribed to Xenial. Matching subscriptions: Ubuntu 16.04 Bugs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1606331 Title: StringIndexOutOfBoundsException - Tomcat8.0.32 Status in Tomcat7: Fix Released Status in tomcat8 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in tomcat8 source package in Xenial: New Bug description: Tomcat 8.0.32 has a known and corrected bug https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58999 which in some cases prevents a webapp from executing. I have encountered this error. The fix will be to place a later version of Tomcat8 into the Ubuntu 16.04 repository. I encountered this error using: ---------------------------- OpenVPMS 1.8.1 (veterinary practice management webapp) MySQL 5.7.13 Open-jdk 1.8.0_91 Tomcat 8.0.32 mysql-connector-java-5.1.39 ---------------------------- The webapp in this case (OpenVPMS) runs under tomcat7 but not under this specific version of Tomcat (8.0.32). Instead, tomcat throws a 404-/openvpms error. The relevant portion of the tomcat log is: Caused by: java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: 3 at java.lang.String.charAt(String.java:658) at org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoaderBase.filter(WebappClassLoaderBase.java:2780) at org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoaderBase.loadClass(WebappClassLoaderBase.java:1253) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:411) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:357) at java.lang.Class.forName0(Native Method) at java.lang.Class.forName(Class.java:348) Thank you.
