Ok, given what Noel has told me about this problem, listed below, I have tried all the suggested fixes to this point, none of which worked. The DNS handling apparently changed somewhere between a17 (which seems to work fine) and the final release (which doesn't appear to work at all, at least in XP)

I would like to know if anyone has gotten the newest RELEASE (2.2.0) to run on XP Home/Pro with SP1. Or am I all alone with this problem? Any guidance/assistance is most appreciated.

I run into this when I run "run.bat" so I am not entirely sure all the necessary files have been created for me to run the application as a service. I suppose it is possible that the batch file is somehow using a different config file than "config.xml" but the change in the error message from:

org.apache.excalibur.containerkit.lifecycle.LifecycleException: Component named "dnsserver" failed to pass through the Initialization stage. (Reason:
java.net.UnknownHostException: fec0:0:0:ffff::1%1: fec0:0:0:ffff::1%1).


to

org.apache.excalibur.containerkit.lifecycle.LifecycleException: Component named "dnsserver" failed to pass through the Initialization stage. (Reason:
java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError).


would suggest otherwise.

TIA,
Greg

Try specifying your DNS servers.  That may or may not help.  It appears that
dnsjava is throwing a RuntimeException from a static block.  Really bad
idea.  We don't even care about their default resolver, and are about to
replace it when they throw the exception.

Ah ... that looks familar.   :-)   See:

Does this mean the IPv6 prevents JAMES from working in 2.2.0
(release) even with the DNS server(s) specified and the
autodiscover off?


You might need to explicitly provide the IP address rather than "localhost".
I don't have the IPv6 installed, and never run James on a Microsoft
platform.  The problem is the "fec0:0:0:ffff::1%1" from MS-Windows.


It works in 2.2.0a17. What changed that makes it not work now?


Different DNS handling.
