FYI -
We are using Tomcat 4.1.12 too, but on NT 2000 server, and do not have =
the application.getRealPath() problem.  SDK 1.4.0, and no JBoss.

The date display error is bug #634428, fixed in the next beta release =
according to its status.

Subject: Re: Antwort: [Trackplus-user] Re: installation problems
jboss/tomcat

Hi Joerg,

It's indeed Tomcat 4.1.12 that I'm using, so nothing wrong
there from the track+ side.=20

While fixing this problem (just added a init parameter called
OVERRIDE_REAL_PATH that I can set in web.xml), I ran across two
other problems, which are bugs in Track+:=20

 - the mail locale files are all using '\n' between to separate
the lines; that is not according to the spec which requires
a '\r\n'. In particular when I was installing track+ on my linux
system, the mail flatly refused to work because of that.
As soon as I changed all the '\n''s by '\r\n''s everything was
great.=20

 - the dates(start and end date) while editing an issue are not =
displayed=20
correctly.
They are displayed with a '.' as a separator iso a '/' and are
when you save the issue not parsed correctly. Should be very
easy to fix (using mysql as a database, not sure whether that
has any impact on anything).=20

Thanks for the quick replies!=20

 - Filip=20
