[Chello-users] Newbee install questions

[Phil B. <ph...@tc...>]

Hi everyone,

Just setting up chello for the first time and have a couple of questions:

1. Every time I access the chellobuild servlet I get:

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP
/Users/phil/Applications/Servers/jakarta-
tomcat-4.0.1/work/localhost/chellobuild/cruise$jsp.java:347: 
Incompatible type for method. Explicit cast needed to convert 
java.lang.Throwable to java.lang.Exception.
             if (pageContext != null) pageContext.handlePageException(t);
                                                                      ^
1 error

I understand what it means but have no idea what I've done to break it - 
I certainly haven't added any code yet. Just want to get everything 
running.

2. For some reason, xerces (i think) is broken by CVS. If I checkout a 
new copy of chello from my own cvs, I get the following in the log file:

It appears that something is not being unzipp'd properly however, when I 
replace the xerces jar, all works fine again. No other jar is broken by 
CVS. Has anyone had this experience - or can you recommend a cvs wrapper 
conf that will stop me breaking xerces?

Also, cvs constantly things xerces has been modified? Anyone had this 
experience?

Thanks in advance,

Phil
