It works fine under 3.7. I don't expect Tomcat to run under Java 1.2
anymore...Seaside/Comanche are of similar ilk. They generally stay with
the latest stable version of Squeak...currently 3.7. Is there another
factor motivating you to work with 3.6? If so, you can probably make
things work but I wouldn't expect it to be as easy as under 3.7. It is
likely that things can be made to work by loading an older version of
KomHttpServer (and maybe other packages too?). Others would certainly
know more about it than me...I'm just here to encourage you to keep at it.

I vaguely recall that new now, as of 3.7, automatically sends initialize
and Object has a default empty version. So, add:
initialize
^self
to Object...that will take care of this particular problem.

Don't give up! Seaside is worth it :-) I hope you can either switch to
3.7 or find the determination to get things working under 3.6.

Nope, or if so than I am too... The Universes effort seeks to remedy
this for future releases of Squeak (then package releases will be more
carefully tied to Squeak image versions).

Been there... :-)
