Hey Philip, I'm pretty sure that Hongbing is getting this error too. And there was an email from Cam a while ago too.
Here are my answers to your questions. (a) Nope. (b) Yes, the problems reappeared when I did get a clean tomcat (the latest version) and got the latest Java version. But, I've gotten this error before. (c) Windows. I actually looked at my local environment. There isn't anything there that is special. I even deleted a few things from my enviroment to get it to be very clean, probably no different than anyone elses computer. So, I thought it was very weird that this occured as soon as I upgraded my tomcat from 5.5.9 to what ever the latest version is. I actually think that I was using a later version of tomcat a while ago and was experiencing these problems but somehow found out that 5.5.9 didn't cause the problems. However, I upgraded to the latest because there was a change to PageWriter that was incommpatible with 5.5.9 (i think it was a JSP compilation issue). Anyway, when Hongbing comes back we'll dive into this a little more. thanks, Aaron ----- Original Message ----- From: Philip Johnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Tuesday, August 29, 2006 9:16 am Subject: Re: [HACKYSTAT-DEV-L] hackystat build problems (fwd) To: HACKYSTAT-DEV-L@HAWAII.EDU > Hi Aaron, > > I can confirm that I am not getting this error locally, nor are we > experiencing it in the > daily build.
