Jboss 3.2.3 won't start with jdk 1.3.1

[erikt]

The default 3.2.3 distribution of Jboss won't start with jdk 1.3.1. The deployment of Tomcat dies with:

16:29:01,854 WARN [ServiceController] Problem starting service jboss.web:service=WebServer
java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError:
java.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find bundle for base name org.apache.catalina.startup.LocalStrings, locale en_US

I know that this has been reported before (in these forums and other places) and that the suggested solution is to use a 1.4.* jdk, but that is not an option for me, as our large application runs in production on 1.3.1.

Any suggestions? I don't understand why Jboss complains as the catalina.jar obviously is available.

You need to recompile the server with JDK1.3.1

Ok. I have recompiled jboss-3.2.3 with jdk 1.3.1 and it gives me the same result as before.

D:\java\jboss-3.2.3-src\build>build

It seems to build ok (disregarding a couple of warnings for deprecated stuff), but the result is the same when trying to run the server:

Have I missed something obvious?

Hmm, maybe that's something specific to Tomcat then. Sorry don't have the time to test it now. Tomcat is not compiled as part of JBoss build AFAIK. Does the same version of standalone Tomcat run on JDK1.3.1 ok?
