Message1385

This is a duplicate of 1615929, which is marked as closed/wont fix. Your options are to use an older java, or if you can tolerate pre-release code to use one of the jython 2.2 snapshots. 

A further possibility, if you must use jython 2.1 with java6, is to try installing with an older java, but then running the installed jython with java6 (you'll need to update the path in jython.bat).

This issue needs a FAQ entry, leaving it open as a reminder to write one.
