From where did you copy the logs?

Looks good for JUnit 4 on OpenJDK 6 and Travis CI: https://travis-ci.org/junit-team/junit4/jobs/459467441

@sormuras I faced the issue while working on PR #1569

https://travis-ci.org/junit-team/junit4/builds/466439917

[sormuras]

Thanks for the heads-up. It seems like "dist: trusty" is also affected...

Will notify @travis-ci / @BanzaiMan

FYI I have the same problem with System Rules since 6th Dec: https://travis-ci.org/stefanbirkner/system-rules/branches

@sormuras Any news? Did Travis get back to you?

[sormuras]

Seems like it is not working as intendend: https://travis-ci.community/t/the-travis-ci-build-could-not-be-completed-due-to-an-error/1345 -- as if legacy JDKs are no longer supported "out of the box".

@sormuras Our .travis.yml doesn't specify trusty. Maybe it should? Or is trusty the default?

[sormuras]

Trusty is the default, afaik. But it now lacks JDK 6 support.
Xenial only comes with JDK 10 and 11 installed.

[sormuras]

We might resort to using install-jdk.sh in raw mode and specify a URL that points to a JDK x version in .tar.gz format. Do you known an official repository that hosts such archives?

[marcphilipp]

It does use trusty but for some reason no longer installs the open-jdk-6 package via apt. Previously it did install the package but did not change the used Java version. Thus, I've removed it in 9b34c4b for now.

[kcooney]

Could we configure Travis to use the older images for now? See https://blog.travis-ci.com/2017-12-12-new-trusty-images-q4-launch

[marcphilipp]

Maybe. I've sent a support request to Travis. Let's hope they'll get back with a solution.

Also started a thread Java/JDK on Travis CI over here: https://travis-ci.community/t/java-jdk-on-travis-ci/1380

Sorry, still recovering from the flu when I sent my last comment. That link in my comment was from 2017. 🙄
