["Donald Woods (JIRA)" <de...@geronimo.apache.org>]

     [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-1011?page=all ]

Donald Woods updated GERONIMO-1011:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: IBMJUnit.patch

The IBMJUnit.patch also needs to be applied to allow the Geronimo source code (not OpenEJB) to be built via the IBM JDK.

>      Project: Geronimo
>         Type: Bug
>   Components: JVM-compatibility
>     Versions: 1.0-M5

> HTTPS connectors for Jetty and Tomcat fail to load when starting the server using the IBM 1.4.2 JDK.
> This worked with M4, but was broken sometime in the last several weeks by changes in M5.
> The IBM JDK supplies its own HTTPS handler - com.ibm.net.ssl.www.protocol, which must be manually loaded in addition to the default sun.net.www.protocol.
> Also, the IBM JDK provides a different implementation of the X059 algorithm, which is IbmX509 instead of SunX509.
> The required code changes to recognize that an IBM JDK is being used and initialize the algorithm and protocol handler correctly, are confined to the Jetty and Tomcat HttpsConnector classes and the GeronimoURLFactory.
> The resolution of this bug will only allow a Geronimo server built with the Sun JDK to run on an IBM JDK - it does not resolve the other known build and Orb problems with using non-Sun JVMs.
