This is usually a JDK version mismatch. Are you using JDK 7?

[Charles Munat]

java version "1.6.0_37"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_37-b06-434-11M3909)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.12-b01-434, mixed mode)

[Ngoc Dao]

Please try running with Java 7.

In Xitrum 1.9.9, I've just updated Javassist to the latest version
3.17.0-GA. It seems that this version has to be used with Java 7. I
will revert Javassist to the older version in Xitrum 1.9.10.

[Charles Munat]

I'm on Mac Lion. I guess I'll back up to 1.9.8 for now. God knows when
Mac will release Java 7, and I'm not sure I want to risk screwing up
everything else on my machine just to run Java 7. Thanks!

Chas.

Apple has stopped releasing new Java. You have to download Java 7 from
Oracle.

> screwing up everything else on my machine just to run Java 7

For production, I've been using Java 7 on Linux for about a year.

For development, I'm on Mac too. I'm using both Java 7 and Java 6.
When uploading new app to Apple App Store from Xcode, I have to switch
to Java 6 because the uploader does not work with Java 7. Except for
that, everything works fine.

But I guess Java 6 is still widely used, so I will revert Javassist
and release Xitrum 1.9.10 soon.

[Charles Munat]

If you're doing OK with Java 7, I'll try it.

[Charles Munat]

It is astonishing to me that in 2012, almost 2013, the Java web site is
still the most convoluted, stupidly-designed, user-unfriendly site on
the Internet. And that's saying something. I guess a big "download"
button is too obvious.

It was horrible under Sun, and Oracle seems to be upholding the
tradition. How sad.

Despite Oracle's best efforts to scare me off, I am downloading Java 7
and will give it a try.

Chas.
