Upgrading from 5.1 beta 2 to 5.1 stable

[crashoverride025]

I just tried to upgrade from 5.1 beta 2 to the 5.1 stable release. When doing so I got the error below. I'm upgrading via tomcat with a Java 8 JDK.

First error:

Code: Select all

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP:

An error occurred at line: 1 in the generated java file
The type java.util.Map$Entry cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files

This issue was caused due to an upgrade from Java 7 to 8, and using Tomcat 7.0.33. Tomcat 7.0.33 does not have great Java8 support. So an upgrade to Tomcat 7.0.57 was required.

Thanks for the heads up.
