Hi Matt,
I just followed your instructions verbatim and deployed to a fresh
tomcat-6.0.14 install and when I go to
http://localhost:8080/red5/demos
I get
HTTP Status 503 - This application is not currently available
in my catalina.out logfile I see:
*SEVERE: Null component
Catalina:type=JspMonitor,name=jsp,WebModule=//localhost/r
ed5,J2EEApplication=none,J2EEServer=none
Nov 12, 2007 8:31:02 PM org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig deployWAR
SEVERE: Error deploying web application archive red5.war
java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Bad version number in .class file
at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass(ClassLoader.java:675)

java.security.SecureClassLoader.defineClass(SecureClassLoader.java:12
*Any ideas are greatly appreciated! This is on Mac OS X leopard java 1.5
latest
Thanks, Jason
