Question about Linux install of Tomcat 3.2 (is there an RPM yet)
I am a linux newbie so this might be a stupid question but...
I have linux 6.2 installed (using Redhat).
I have Apache 1.3.14 running well.
I have JDK 1.3 installed and working.
Now to get to where I want to be, I want to get Tomcat 3.2 running with
Apache. There are no RPM's for it as of last night (at least not at
redhat.com) and I do not want to mess with the older version. Can I install
the unix tars from apache.org on my system without building it myself? I
would assume there are system specific things that would require a rebuild
but I really do not want to deal with that right now. How long does it
normally take to get RPMs on redhat.com for something like this?
Any advice would be appreciated.
thanks,
dt

In essence you can... As long as you have a supported JVM...;-)

Tomcat is a pure Java application.
there is a tar on the jakarta.apache.org website.
just un-tar it and you are installed. so no need for an RPM since tomcat
works of the relative directory structure.

There's RPMs for Tomcat (and a lot of other Apache stuff) listed at
http://rpmized.free.fr/ It's also indexed at http://rpmfind.net.
Specifically, you can get tomcat at
ftp://ftp.falsehope.com/home/gomez/tomcat/
Once you've installed the RPM, fix and run `/etc/rc.d/init.d/tomcat
start`, point your browser at http://localhost:8080 and you're away.
