Dev setup problem - jsp directory not found Will Holtz  2019-02-06 17:14

Hi,

I'm setting up a development machine, which I have done successfully several times before, but I keep running into this error (from catalina.log):

ERROR ExceptionUtil            2019-02-06 16:57:46,724     http-nio-8080-exec-1 : Unhandled exception: 500: Unexpected server error
javac: directory not found: /Users/wholtz/labkey/release18.3/build/modules/core/classes/java/jsp

ERROR ExceptionUtil            2019-02-06 16:57:46,734     http-nio-8080-exec-1 : Exception detected

The full catalina.log is attached. If I create the missing jsp directory, this process gets further but stops whenever another module tries to display jsp.

I'm running:
Labkey 18.3
Apache Tomcat 8.5.37
Mac OS X 10.14.3
Oracle JDK 1.8.0_191-b12
Postgres 10.4

any ideas would be appreciated.

thanks,
-Will

Changing to OpenJDK v11.0.2 fixed this issue.

The mac development machine setup page still indicates that Oracle Java 8 should be used. That page might be due for an update.
