Problem running synapse.sh on JDK versions greater than 1.5.x
Hello,
I'm brand new to Apache Synapse, so I'm trying it out on a Fedora release 8 (Werewolf) server with JDK 1.6.0_04. I'm working through the samples in the Quick Start guide, but when I tried to start Synapse using the synapse_sample_0.xml configuration, I got an error message saying "Synapse requires JDK 1.5.x". I would have thought that as I have a newer version of the JDK, Synapse should have been happy to proceed, but the version checking in the shell script just looks for the string "1.5" in the output of the java -version command. I disabled the check in my local copy of synapse.sh so I could keep going, but I'm wondering:
* Is Synapse safe to run using JDKs greater than 1.5.x?
* Is this a bug?
* If so, how do I log it?
Any help/comments greatly appreciated.

Hi Paul,
Synapse can run on JDK1.6 but we have not tested it on 1.6 and hence we do not recommend production deployment on 1.6 and one known issue on JDK1.6 is the script mediator support. Script mediator will not work on the JDK1.6.
Most of the times starting from the next release we will fully support JDK1.6. So as a summery apart from the Script mediator it should work.
For any issues on synapse you will need to log the issues in this [1] JIRA instance.
