java.io.FileInputStream init problem on Linux

[pascal]

Hi,

I'm using the code below since a while on a ColdFusion hosting on Windows platform. Now I try to install on a Linux server and I get this error (on working code):

Object Instantiation Exception.An exception occurred when instantiating a Java object. The class must not be an interface or an abstract class. Error: ''.

Here is the code extract. The error occurs on the marked line.

Anybody knows how to solve this?

  <cfscript>
   prefix = ucase(left(name,find(".properties",name)-1));
   languages = listAppend(languages,prefix);
  
   // these objects enable getResourceBundle method to load the properties files:
   rb  = createObject("java", "java.util.PropertyResourceBundle");
   fis = createObject("java", "java.io.FileInputStream");

   if( not isDefined("application.rb_#prefix#")) {
    fis.init(application.translationpath&prefix&'.properties');
    rb.init(variables.fis);
    "application.rb_#prefix#" = rb;
   }

   fis.close();
  </cfscript>

I think the problem isn't the line fis = createObject("java", "java.io.FileInputStream");, but the line after that. It should be an assignment of the form a=b. Something like this should work:

<cfscript>
   prefix = ucase(left(name,find(".properties",name)-1));
   languages = listAppend(languages,prefix);
 
   // fis and rb enable getResourceBundle method to load the properties files:
   if( not isDefined("application.rb_#prefix#")) {
    variables.fis = createObject("java", "java.io.FileInputStream").init(application.translationpath&prefix&'.properties');
    variables.rb = createObject("java", "java.util.PropertyResourceBundle").init(variables.fis);
    "application.rb_#prefix#" = variables.rb;

    variables.fis.close();
   }  
</cfscript>

In fact, this is even more efficient, as you will only need to create the objects when isDefined() returns true.

I trief with your suggestion, but still the error.

Object Instantiation Exception.

An exception occurred when instantiating a Java object. The class must not be an interface or an abstract class. Error: ''.

The error occurred in /var/opt/coldfusion8/wwwroot/hosts/www.backup.habimat.be/Application.cfm: line 46

application.translationpath&prefix&'.properties '

Make sure this line -- neater without the extra space at the end -- represents a string that represents the full path to a properties file. What happens when you replace it with

"#application.translationpath&prefix&'.properties'#"

Still the same 😞 I tried just removing the trailing space and adding the # signs.

OK it works...the most stupid Windows <> Linux mistake...

tried to load NL.properties while it should be nl.properties.

Thanks for the help!
