Re: Is it possible and how

Hi,

sorry for the mistake about the Tomcat, it is 5.4
Thank you for the guidance I will send if I will face any obstacles. Even
though, I tried to do migration from old windows and MS SQL to new one but
I faced with a lot of error messages and I couldn't complete it. I am
thinking to move it to Linux platform, because I am better with Linux and I
think Java is more smoother with Linux.
Any hint would be appreciated very much.

Thank you

Mmm. That sounds like a bootlegged, pre-release, and probably illegal version.

Definitely.
According to this : http://www.linuxandubuntu.com/home/top-8-linux-distributions-of-2016
"Fedora - Bleeding Edge" is the smoothest of all.
