Hello all, Just to close the loop on this thread, and for my own reminder:
I ran with the busted symlink for some months, but eventually updating classpathx-mail via yum brought the issue back again. I eventually discovered the alternatives command, and used 'alternatives --remove javamail <path>' to remove the javamail references. Now, Tomcat complains mightily that it can't find its javamail.jar, but it starts and Dspace can use its own mail.jar without interference. It now occurs to me that I might have been able to install a new alternative, pointing javamail to Dspace's mail.jar. I may play around with this in the future. -Andrew At 3:58 PM -0800 1/11/08, Andrew Laurence wrote: >At 2:59 PM -0800 1/11/08, Andrew Laurence wrote: >> >Your mail jar file problem might be related to the fact that it >>appears you >>>are running the GNU JDK rather than the Sun JDK.
