Uhh, yes... JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/Home
It's always been that way...If I undeploy the application and redeploy it the bogus errors usually go away..

I have tried with BOTH the regular and JIKES compiler and I get this error intermittenly...It does not happen on 3.2.1...

I really wish the JBoss group would settle on something and stick to it. Changing to Tomcat because you hired the developer (or is it a better web container) should not break existing generic code.

And no, I'm not going to pay $200/hr for development support for something that should work as advertised out of the box.

What happens with JBoss 3.2.3 with Jetty?

[rtucker]

I've got the same problem.

[javac] Compiling 1 source file
[javac] C:\jboss-3.2.3\server\default\work\MainEngine\localhost\AgencyManagementWeb\jsp\detail_search_jsp.java:220: cannot resolve symbol
[javac] symbol : method getCountrySelectList ()
[javac] location: class com.tclick.agencyManagement.search.SearchParams
[javac] out.print(sp.getCountrySelectList());

The odd this is all I have to is change the name of the class "SearchParams" to "SearchParam" and the jsp will compile.

What's going on here?

[tbauer]

I have two different installations of JBoss on my development system, and to switch from one to the other, I only have to change my JBOSS_HOME env variable.

I am (and have been) using JBoss 3.2.1 with Jetty for MONTHS to a year, and have NEVER had this problem. Whenever I use 3.2.3 with Tomcat, I start getting these errors, whether my web.xml is configured to use JIKES or regular javac to do jsp compiles. Its as if somehow the whole xxx_jsp.java file IS TRUNCATED somehow before the compiler gets done with it....

Here's my application startup echo:

This is extremely frustrating as I would LOVE to use JIKES and new features in JB3.2.3, but I can't move it to production with BLATANT compilation errors like this.

What happens with JBoss 3.2.3 with Jetty?

[tbauer]

It works great with jboss-3.2.3_jetty-4.2.14 so far..will continue testing...Disturbing tho, since JBG has ordained Tomcat as it's "official" web engine..

Also, since OS X has been out for almost 3 years now, it would be nice if someone could please fix the DEFAULT /bin/run.sh to point to the proper
OS X classes.jar file...

JAVAC_JAR="$JAVA_HOME/../Classes/classes.jar"

NOT

JAVAC_JAR="$JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar"

Also, since OS X has been out for almost 3 years now, it would be nice if someone could please fix the DEFAULT /bin/run.sh to point to the proper
OS X classes.jar file...

Has the bug been raised on sourceforge yet?

Other developers may not have experienced the problems that you are having so you may need to submit a patch with the version that works for you.

[tbauer]

I'll submit a bug about the /bin/run.sh parameter, but hopefully someone from JBoss Group could do some testing of JB3.2.3 (with and without Jikes) using OS X 10.3.2 and java 1.4.2...

Since JBoss is also distributed with the Apple Developer package, I'll also contact some friends inside Apple to see if they have encountered this problem or know about it...

Can't rely on this version(3.2.3 with Tomcat) until someone steps up to the plate with some answers.
