Tomcat versioning

[Dave Marsden <ln...@publicode.com>]

Hi People

Can anyone give me a bit of background on why the documentation
recommends Tomcat versions with the suffix "LE" when installing Lenya.

I couldn't find a way to search the 'gmane' archives so this may already
have been covered.

Does "LE" mean "Specially for Lenya"?  Is this to include the Lenya
endorsed versions of xalan and xerxes?

The reason I ask is that I want to set Lenya running in a shared hosting
environment and may not be able to select a custom version of Tomcat or
customise the shared libraries.  Background on what the LE versions of
Tomcat are doing will help me to negotiate a fix with the hosts (or give
up on shared hosting).  Any tips on running Lenya in a shared
environment would be much appreciated too.

Thanks

Dave Marsden

Hi!

It does not yet answer your major question, but:

Seems like nobody can. (Including myself.) There is a way better system
available at http://nagoya.apache.org/eyebrowse/. Just for future reference.

No. As far as I remember it means something like "Light Edition" and refers
back to the ancient years of JDK 1.3.x where there were no XML parsers at
all in the JDK. Since JDK 1.4.x there are, but they won't work for Lenya.

In case you have rented a slot in a shared Tomcat somewhere this will not be
the best environment to run Lenya unless by chance the provider has set up
the same endorsed libraries in Tomcat that Lenya needs. This might be the
case but still if you go live nobody will prevent you from the provider
upgrading the Tomcat endorsed libraries to newer ones which might break
Lenya as well. (I remember having seen that with some Xalan or Xerces that
was just too new.)

I think endorsed libraries are always global to Tomcat (i.e. all its
contexts), aren't they?

Yep. It works. I use tomcat 5.0.25 with lenya and no problems.

Yes it does.  I'm using with Debian unstable.

[Enrico Ballarin Dolfin <eb...@innopark.ch>]

Hi,

does somebody know if Lenya works also with tomcat 5.0.19-13 (as found in SuSE 
9.1) instead of with tomcat 4.1.29 LE ?

Thanks
Enrico
