Problem with JBoss build

[Jan Novak]

Hi,

I'm a very beginner with JBoss.

I downloaded JBoss distribution from http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/tags/JBoss_4_0_3/ (using tortoise svn) and then I started build from \build\build.bat. Command line says:

Can anybody help me?

I doubt I have to repair org.jboss.ejb.plugins.cmp.jdbc.ByteArrayBlob manually. Where is a mistake?

Thaks a lot for a help.

Jan, welcome to Java Ranch!

1) Why did you using 4.0.3? That version is ancient. You should be using 6.0 or 7.0.

2) Why are you trying to build from source? And why did you download the source from svn instead of grabbing the source bundle on the downloads page?

3) Which JDK are you using? I don't recall if you need JDK 1.4.2 or JDK 5 to build it.

Hi, actually I have to use just this version as it's a part of the test task. I know, this version it's pretty old, but unfortunately need to use it and can't get over the error.

I need to use JDK 5.

[Peter Johnson]

I am going to suggest that try building it with 1.4.2. If that works, then try running that build with 1.5.

And you still haven't told me why you need to build it...

Switch JDK 6 to JDK 5 was very helpful thing for me. (eg. download from oracle archiv http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javasebusiness/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javase5-419410.html#jdk-1.5.0_22-oth-JPR ).
By the way changing JVM on Ubuntu 10.10 was an horror as Ubuntu forces me to use Open JDK 6 any way. But when i found that there is symlink structure usr/bin/java -> /etc/alternatives/java_xx -> usr/lib/jvm/some_jdk/jre/bin/java, I have got a clue and just by manipulate with symlink in /etc/alternatives i was finally able to resolve the bug and task was being ready.
