Q: Why doesn't JBoss run on my machine properly ? I see a lot of error message while the server startup process.
I am using IBM JDK 1.3.x.

A: There might be a problem with long file name and the IBM JDK reading from ZIP files. Since JAR files are basically ZIP files and JBoss uses a deep directory structure this may trigger the JDK error.

Please upgrade to a newer IBM JDK (not yet available at the time of writing) or switch to a SUN JDK.

PS: Our information on this topic is very sparse. Please supply us with the error message you see and any evidence that this problem in the IBM JDK exists and is trigger by JBoss.

Here is the requested evidence.
My machine ( Debian Linux 2.2, kernel 2.2.19 )

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 cxia32131-20020622 (JIT enabled: jitc))

Here are some snippets of output from JBoss run.sh:
I have editted the output. Entire output available upon request.
