Hello everybody,

we, the memoComp, run a trial to port the most famous Scarab application from tigris.org to Turbine-4.0-M1.

Scarab is already compiled, using Maven2 and Turbine 4.0-M1, but it doesn't work. The application seems to start on a Tomcat 6.0 with JRE 1.6, but there are still some errors. Hence we are currently interested in some short facts, e.g. about the Turbine framework, as there are in detail:

We saw Turbine-4.0-M1 is currently not ready for production yet but the future version, right? We wanted to test it, but what are your further plans for turbine? Which version is the base version for Turbine-4.0, as we see several unfinished approaches, like 2.4? Do you still want to migrate turbine to use Apache Fulcrum or Avalon services, or is the aim to use Turbine's own classes whenever this is possible? This question is, because we found some incompatibilities, e.g.: "org.apache.turbine.om.security.User" and "org.apache.fulcrum.security.entity.User", which seems to be very similar.

If we start Scarab using Turbine 4.0-M1 and try to access the main servlet in Browser, some, mysterious exceptions occur, which I cannot explain yet. Please see the following:

* "java.lang.NullPointerException: charsetName", appears in my tomcat console. Property for "locale.default.charset" is set in TurbineResource.properties. * "java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: ROLE" Maybe a class file is missing here? I think this is about PoolService in fulcrum 3.0-b1, we found no fulcrum 3.0 to download. * Using fulcrum-pool 1.0.4 instead of fulcrum 3.0-b1, we got the following "java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.fulcrum.pool.DefaultPoolService cannot be cast to org.apache.turbine.services.Service"

I hope you are able to help. Our target is to provide all sources to public on tigris.org.

cheers,
Johannes
