JBoss 3.2.6 Can't Find URLDecoder in Java 1.3

[dwightmccann]

I am running zLinux on an IBM 2066. I am not familiar with Java or JBoss but am doing the install as part of my support duties for developers. I installed Java:

dwight@z800f:~> java -version
java version "1.3.1"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1)
Classic VM (build 1.3.1, J2RE 1.3.1 IBM build cx390131-20040527a (JIT enabled: jitc))

and JBoss 3.2.6, but when I started it I got the following:

=========================================================================

JBoss Bootstrap Environment

JBOSS_HOME: /opt/WebSphere/JBOSS/jboss-3.2.6

JAVA: /usr/lib/java/bin/java

JAVA_OPTS: -Dprogram.name=run.sh

CLASSPATH: /opt/WebSphere/JBOSS/jboss-3.2.6/bin/run.jar:/usr/lib/java/lib/tools.jar

=========================================================================

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: java.net.URLDecoder: method decode(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/String; not found

at org.jboss.Main.boot(Main.java:98)

at org.jboss.Main$1.run(Main.java:399)

at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:513)


Can anyone point me in the right direction for resolving this?

You will either need a different JBoss version or a later JDK.
