I can only confirm that it works with OpenJDK 7 on Ubuntu 12.10
[OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.3.9) (7u21-2.3.9-0ubuntu0.12.10.1)]

It sounds like your Java environment is broken. Does $JAVA_HOME point to an old Java version?

You might check the output of './ant -diagnostics' to see which Java version gets used.

I do not know why, but it seems to build fine using OpenJDK 7 on Ubuntu (I
did that), but it fails, with the errors I reported in this thread, on
Suse, with both OpenJDK 6 and OpenJDK 7.  Whatever the problem is, as far
as I can see, it is related to the Linux distribution in use.

Cheers,

Hi Adrian,

I personally haven't tested it out, but according to OFBIZ-4638
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-4638) OFBiz does build with
OpenJDK 7.

If there is a problem, can some one say what it is?

Cheers

I agree it can be frustrating trying to get a project to build for the
first time.

OFBiz does not currently support Java 1.7, so if you are willing to
investigate further on your local copy, we would welcome any patches
that enable the project to support Java 1.7.

This is regardless of whether I try to build trunk or release 12.04.

If I run 'ant run-install, I get the error "/opt/ofbuz/build.xml:23
can't
declare any more prefixes in this context".  It seems OFBiz has it's own
version of ant, and God only knows how that will interact with my system
as
my system has the latest versions of my usual development tools.  Worse,
I
have seen no mention of OFBiz using non-standard tools anywhere in the
documentatin I have read.  I am not amused.

If I run "./ant run-install", I get the error "/opt/ofibiz/build.xml:25:
The following error occurred while executing this line:
/opt/ofbiz/macros.xml:31: Please upgrade java to at least 1.6"

Of course this is really stupid, as this is on OpenSuse 12.3, and I have
the full JDK installed, version 1.7.0_17!  How is it your build scripts
can't properly detect the JDK version that is installed on this system

Now, then, what is the magic incantation I need to resort to to get this
thing to build properly?  Nothing I have tried so far has worked.

Thanks

Ted
