similar to: JPackage, Java 1.5.0, and CentOS 5?

Have the jpackage-packaged things like tomcat5 been moved into the disto repositories? Do they work with sun java? In particular, tomcat5 used to require jta. The one yum installs doesn't mention it now, but it also doesn't work with sun java 1.5 installed the jpackage way. What am I missing? -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com

strugging with things here... tried tracking the info on the Wiki (which apparently is now in need of a maintainer)... http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/JavaOnCentOS My primary interest is using Xalan/Saxon/xslt/xsl-fo docbook generation. I was thinking that all I really need is jre but downloaded both jre and jdk just in case. can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? (after removing both jdk

I've followed the installation instructions from jpackage.org: http://www.jpackage.org/installation.php 1) Install jpackage17.repo in yum.repos.d 2) Install jpackage-utils 3) Install jdk (I installed jdk 1.5.0_14) 4) Install -compat package (I installed java-1.5.0-sun-compat) 5) Select alternatives for java and javac. "/usr/sbin/alternatives --config java" gave me only one option to

Guys, I'm running into a dependecy issue running through the process of building a system for Openbravo. My test system's running CentOS 4.4, i386. Openbravo requires... - Jakarta-Tomcat version 5.5. It can be downloaded from http://tomcat.apache.org/ - Java (TM) 2 Platform Standard Edition 5.0. It can be downloaded from http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp - Oracle(r) 10g

Is there any documentation telling you whether tomcat5 was compiled against the 1.4.2 tree or the 1.5? You could try downloading the srpm, patching it to use the 1.4.2 java and then re-create your own rpm. Just a thought, might be an easier way though; will wait for the experts response. -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces at centos.org [mailto:centos-bounces at centos.org] On

Is anyone running tomcat5 from jpackage 1.6 on cento4 w/ java-1.4.2- sun-1.4.2.08-1jpp ? I'm getting weird dependencies which don't make sense, notably: Error: Missing Dependency: jdk = 2000:1.5.0_02-fcs is needed by package java-1.5.0-sun-compat I want to use 1.4.2 not 1.5 and it doesn't make sense to have jdk = 2000:1.5.0_02-fcs, unless I'm missing something? I do have

Hi, I just installed CentOS 5 on a few machines, to experiment with it. I have some trouble installing a Java plugin for Firefox. I've searched through the forum and read the various info at jpackage.org, and I'm a bit confused. 1) Can you point me to some reliable bit of information, even if it's laconic? 2) If I understand the info on http://jpackage.org/yum.php correctly,

As requested on IRC, this is my proposed walkthough for installing Java on CentOS 4 using jpackage.org's compat-rpm method. Please review and comment. 1. make sure jpackage-utils is installed $ rpm -q jpackage-utils jpackage-utils-1.7.3-1jpp.2.el5 if it isn't already installed, you can install it using # yum install jpackage-utils The package is part of CentOS, so you don't need to

i chose to install tomcat during the OS install as well as java....however, since I needed to use a different jvm, i used the method described in http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/JavaOnCentOS for Sun jdk 1.5.0_13 and it worked fine as I can tell, as using the alternatives --config java command, i see both 1.4.2 and 1.5.0 versions and choosing the 1.5.0 version yields the right version when doing a

Hmmm, I seemed to have created a misalignmnet somewhere along the line. I can't remember doing anything to this. But at one time I did try to test the java open source. Posted my results to the list, got no response, abandoned all hope and went on my merry way. I don't know if this is related. I have installed an rpm for a java needed by an application I run. It was from the official

Hi. I'm having trouble accessing a shared directory over NFSv4 on a CentOS 4.5 machine.

I lost my harddrive, and have had to reinstall. This time, I am being a bit smarter on imaging, but still got to get things installed... Installing Freemind. It needs Java JRE. So after lots of pain, and reading past messages, I got jre-1_5_0_09-linux-i586.rpm from sun and installed it. Then I tried to follow Jim Perrin's recommendation to install from jpackage.org the

Hi all, Somebody knows where I can find tomcat5 rpm packages for CentOS 4.x?? Many thanks. -- CL Martinez carlopmart {at} gmail {d0t} com

I've found about a dozen different ways to skin this cat (no pun intended). Everything from creating a script in /etc/init.d/ to using jsvc. I was hoping someone out there, those of you out there who run Tomcat in this manner, how did *you* set this up? I can't seem to get it right. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Or even direction to an authoritative document. Preston

Hello all I'm trying to build tomcat6 from the SRPMs provided at [1], but I appear to have hit a wall. One of the dependencies of tomcat6-6.0.18-8.18.1.noarch [2] is jakarta-commons-dbcp-tomcat5 (provided by jakarta-commons-dbcp [3]). (I don't see why it's requiring tomcat5 components, maybe that's my problem). When I try to build jakarta-commons-dbcp, compilation fails: BEGIN

Error: Missing Dependency: /usr/bin/rebuild-security-providers is needed by package java-1.4.2-gcj-compat I'm digging all over the place for this one. Has anyone a clue??

Nothing seems to provide the rebuild thing. I've used

For the people who are currently interested in java as it relates to centos now that Sun has GPL'd java there are some things to be aware of. The folks at jpackage.org are pretty much all over this development but it's not the bright shiny news everyone has made it out to be. Sun did a very good thing by moving java under the GPL, and they should be commended for FINALLY seeing the light

Hi everyone, I'm a newbie to centos and having trouble upgrading java's jdk1.4 to jdk1.5. I assume I have to get the jdk from jpackage, but I'm having trouble locating it, let alone finding any instructions on how to upgrade. Much appreciated if anyone can help. Thanks!
