I found a regression problem with Java 1.5 that I thought might be of
interest to some:

I took a version of OFBiz (I think it was 7759 - still pre Geronimo) and
moved it back from production to development for some work. When I tried
to start it up, I got the following error:

    Aug 12, 2006 7:00:35 AM
    com.sun.corba.se.impl.transport.SocketOrChannelConnectionImpl <init>
    WARNING: "IOP00410201: (COMM_FAILURE) Connection failure:
    socketType: IIOP_CLEAR_TEXT; hostname: localhost; port: 2000"
    org.omg.CORBA.COMM_FAILURE:   vmcid: SUN  minor code: 201  completed: No
            at
    com.sun.corba.se.impl.logging.ORBUtilSystemException.connectFailure(ORBUtilSystemException.java:2172)

After doing all the normal hair pulling locally, I searched the Sun site
for some possible clues. What I found (several bug reports) reminded me
that I had installed Java 1.5 on the machine I'm working on - and this
version had been built with 1.4.

So, I repointed my Java runtime to a 1.4 version, restarted and
everything worked fine.

Just an FYI - for those moving to 1.5 but need to concern themselves
with existing 1.4 builds.
