Upgrade Jetty in Railo Express

There was a bug in Jetty that was causing MXUnit ant tests to not work because it was double encoding the cookies. The bug was fixed in Jetty but Railo had not released a new Express version with the fix.

I found out that it is quite simple to upgrade:

  • Download and unarchive the version of Jetty you are upgrading to (ex: 6.1.20).
  • Stop Railo Express.
  • Delete the old jetty and jetty-util jars from the Railo Express /lib directory (ex: jetty-6.1.2.jar and jetty-util-6.1.2.jar).
  • Copy the jetty-6.1.20.jar and the jetty-util-6.1.20.jar from the jetty lib/ directory to the Railo Express lib/ directory.
  • Start Railo Express.

Not much too it, but it seems to be working just fine and the MXUnit ant tasks are now running as expected.
