Where is bootstrap.jar
We have downloaded Apache Tomcat, V2.2.3, and are attempting to install it
on our mainframe systems, running z/OS 1.7. We also have something called
JZOS from IBM, which provides JCL for starting JAVA applications. It came
with JCL to start up tomcat, but it fails with a class not found error,
looking for bootstrap.jar. Should that have come with tomcat? I'd like
some information regarding this missing jar file. Where can I get it?
Also, I'd appreciate experience from anyone who has done this, installed
Tomcat on a mainframe system running z/OS 1.7 OS.

It's the one cleverly hidden under the name "JDK 1.4 Compatability
Package", about half way down the page:

I'm getting close. I've download the most recent version, using the CGI
you sent me, but now when I execute it, it complains becuase I'm running
in a JAVA 1.4 environment, and I need the compatability package, as you
noted.
I'm at the apache site for Tomcat, and I can't find it. Can you give me a
URL to it.

You may be a little confused. The current version of Apache httpd is
2.2.3, but Tomcat is currently at 5.5.17. The httpd product is C-based,
and would have to be ported to your platform. Tomcat is pure Java, and
will run as is - once you actually download the correct package.

If your JRE is 1.4 based, you'll also need the Compatibility Package;
for 1.5 or later, no additions are necessary.
