glassfish v3 requires at least openjdk-6 6b19

[Peter Halicky]

Glassfish V3 does not work properly with openjdk-6 6b18~pre4-1ubuntu1; after a fresh install, attempt to open the login page of the admin console results in the error below. Installing a java package from java.sun.com and using that works without a problem.

I need glassfish!!!!! it's my work.

[Mike Baranczak (mbaranczak-gmail)]

Same thing here. I can still deploy my own apps on Glassfish - it's only the admin console that's broken.

This appears to be a known bug: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6909759

The problem has been fixed upstream in OpenJDK6 b19.

When will this arrive in Lucid? Would it have to be in backports?

[AleksanderAdamowski (aadamowski)]

Confirming bug on Lucid Lynx, Glassfish admin console throws exception:

java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException while attempting to process a 'initPage' event for '/login.jsf'.

Caused by: java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Cannot create XMLStreamReader or XMLEventReader from a javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource

please could you recheck with the openjdk-6 packages in
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openjdk/ppa/ubuntu lucid main

[Robin Stocker (nibor)]

The problem is still there with 6b18-1.8-2lucid5:

Caused by: java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Cannot create XMLStreamReader or XMLEventReader from a javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource

It works with my own build of openjdk though (built with icedtea).

which version, which configure options?

[Robin Stocker (nibor)]

The default branch of the following repository: http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg/icedtea6

The version reported by java -version is:
java version "1.6.0_20"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.9pre+r2abd775a9d46) (Ubuntu build 1.6.0_20-b20)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 17.0-b16, mixed mode)

Configured using: ./configure --disable-plugin

I'll see if the problem also exists with http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg/release/icedtea6-1.8

[Robin Stocker (nibor)]

The problem also exists with icedtea6-1.8, version:

java version "1.6.0_18"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.8+rc691bc07c5e0) (Ubuntu build 1.6.0_18-b18)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 14.0-b16, mixed mode)

[Mike Baranczak (mbaranczak-gmail)]

This bug was fixed upstream (in OpenJDK) a long time ago. Does anybody know when it'll be incorporated into the distro? Right now, Ubuntu still uses version 6b18 of OpenJDK - that release is ancient.

Why not use OpenJDK ppa (https://launchpad.net/~openjdk/+archive/ppa)?
