tomcat6 on snow leopard does not compile, appears to be Java version problem

[gary@…]

Hello,

I tried to install tomcat6 on my new mac with snow leopard, but it fails in org.apache.commons.dbcp. The errors are listed below, and it appears that the dbcp code was never built against java 6, and this is the only version of Java on the machine. I notice that macports does not include loading Java versions. So, I am not sure how you will fix this dependency, except to include some kind of a note in the install process. By the way, I compared the version 5 and 6 of java and it appears that the dbcp code will compile just fine in java 5.

Sincerely yours,

Gary Griswold

P.S. The actual error messages follow:

I'm using the fix for commons-dbcp #21037 which was recently added to macports, and the fix #21309 for dom4j. I get all the way to this step and get the exact same error message. Also running Snow Leopard.

Note that #22498 is marked as a duplicate of this, but appears to be a separate problem and should probably be reopened.

Duh, I meant #22787.
