Re: Tomcat 5.0.x or 5.5.x in production

2004-11-29 Thread Tim Funk
5.5.5 is about to be tagged soon. (See the dev list)
If there are no showstoppers in that release - I (IMO) would say its 
realistic to start consider moving your 5.0.X releases to 5.5. But be warned 
that if you have custom modules (valves, realms, etc) against 5.0 - you will 
need to recompile them (and of course test).

With 5.5.4 being labeled 'stable', I'm interested in moving our sites
to 5.5.x.
 
Is 5.5.4 being regarded as being at least as stable/reliable as
5.0.28?
 
Thanks!

and you'll also have to factor in a little re-configuration too, for example 
the much-debated logging (i.e Logger removal in 5.5), and also a slightly 
different JNDI datasource setup. if it's any interest to you we've had 5.5.4 
(sensibly or not) running our production and dev servers for 2 weeks with only 
1 issue which was related to a connector anyway I think.

Allistair.
