Tomcat and Apple Macintosh

["Addey O.S.E." <ad...@canc.rpa.cs.nsw.gov.au>]

Hi there,

Just joined the list. Have a few questions that have driven me around 
the bend trying to find what I'm looking for.

I have an iMac G3 350 with MacOS 9.2, MacOS X 10.1, and Linux Mandrake 
8.0 PPC. I have Apache 1.3.23 installed under Mandrake 8.0 PPC, have 
downloaded Tomcat 4.0.3 and now I'm looking for an appropriate JDK to 
build it. I can't seem to find a compatible JDK, the JDK for Linux from 
Sun is binary and will not work, simply because the binary is built for 
Intel. Is there a JDK available for my scenario?

Cheers,

Addey

Have you tried blackdown? (You'll probably need to compile something, since
you need ppc binaries.)

Google-ing "linux jdk" should show you at least two others.

Many of the folks in the openBSD community use blackdown, from what I hear.

I personally am finding little motivation to load Linux on my iBook. Older
hardware, yes. It sure is easier to dual-boot Macintoshes than MSWintel
boxen.

Have fun.

I can't help your specific question, but FYI, Tomcat works 
perfectly on OSX in conjunction with Apache. There's no need for 
the LInux unless you just prefer it. The Java on OSX works great.

Gotta say... MySQL/Tomcat/Apache on OSX rocks as a development 
platform... and I use Golive which can link right into the 
databases... fun stuff. Some configuration, though.
