kaffe and tomcat 5.5.4
I'm running tomcat 5.54 on the "free" kaffe vm instead of Sun's JDK.
When I start tomcat with the startup.sh script as root, everything runs
perfectly. However I'm having trouble launching the process with JSVC.
Does anybody know if JSVC can be made to work with java VMs other than
SUN's?
Jsvc debug output says it cannot find the file jvm.cfg, and also the
actual vm file library names from the sun jdk appear to be hard-coded
into the jsvc source because they cannot be found in the kaffe vm as
well.
If anyone has any helpful information, I would be most grateful.
It is disappointing that Tomcat 5.5.4 runs perfectly on Kaffe only to be
stopped by limitations in the commons-daemon... Perhaps there is
another way to run tomcat 5.54 on port 80 as an unprivileged user in
linux?
thank you, Ryan Harris

You could use iptables to redirect the port

As an aside, given that Tomcat now does not use the Sun javac compiler
but instead the Eclipse compiler (which is open source) why did you feel
the need to replace the compiler with the kaffe one? Its a useful exercise
to know it can be done, but I am not quite sure why you wanted to do it?
