Description

The geronimo-1.0\lib\extension directory does not match the directory name in the META-INF/Manifest.mf file contained in the geronimo-1.0\bin\server.jar file. The manifest specifies lib/ext (not lib/extension).

The 1.0 manifest file currently contains the following:

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Class-Path: ../lib/geronimo-qname_1.1_spec-1.0.jar ../lib/geronimo-com
mon-1.0.jar ../lib/geronimo-kernel-1.0.jar ../lib/geronimo-system-1.0
.jar ../lib/geronimo-util-1.0.jar ../lib/cglib-nodep-2.1_3.jar ../lib
/commons-cli-1.0.jar ../lib/commons-logging-1.0.4.jar ../lib/log4j-1.
2.8.jar ../lib/mx4j-3.0.1.jar ../lib/mx4j-remote-3.0.1.jar ../lib/end
orsed/xercesImpl-2.6.2.jar ../lib/endorsed/xmlParserAPIs-2.2.1.jar
Main-Class: org.apache.geronimo.system.main.Daemon
Endorsed-Dirs: lib/endorsed
Extension-Dirs: lib/ext

We need to change the directory in the distribution (not the manifest.mf file) to be lib/ext (to be consistent with the value specified in the manifest file, and also to be consisten with the naming of the directory in a JRE).
