When launching LP 6.1 GA2 on a JDK/JRE 7 U 25 (june 2013), we have an error on com.liferay.portal.image.ImageToolImpl.encodeGIF() :

java.awt.image.RasterFormatException: Incorrect scanline stride: 32
at sun.awt.image.ByteComponentRaster.verify(ByteComponentRaster.java:894)

(full stack trace on attachment)

I think it comes from a change in the JDK, dating of april 2013 (post JDK 7U15), correcting the security alert CVE-2013-0809.

(cf : http://hardik05.wordpress.com/category/java-0-day-analysis/)

The only workaround I see is to deploy on apas JDK (7U15 seem fine)
