To clarify, its not Apache itself that is needed, but a couple of the utilities that made it possible to run Tomcat with the Apache server. We use these same utilities to make it possible to run Tomcat with AOLserver. These are the Apache Portable Runtime library (APR) and the Jakarta Tomcat connector (aka JK2). Tomcat itself doesn't need to be built, you can just download a binary distribution from http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat/release The apr (and apr-util source if your using Tomcat 5) source can be downloaded from apr.apache.org. Here are the configuration options we are currently using: APR configure --prefix=<ourinstalldir> --enable-shared --enable-threads --enable-symbols APR-UTIL configure --prefix=<ourinstalldir> --enable-shared --enable-threads --with-apr=<ourinstalldir> then: "make all install" on each. You will want to add a softlink from libapr-0.so to libapr.so and libaprutil-0.so to libaprutil.so The good news is that once you build APR, you don't have to rebuild it with new nsjk2 distributions. JK2. Check out the source from jakarta's CVS. cvs :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvspublic co -r <tag> jakarta-tomcat-connectors for Tomcat 4, we build with tag=TOMCAT_4_1_27 for Tomcat 5, we build with tag=jk2_2_0_4 Jk2 is built via the 'jkjni' target in the nsjk2 build.xml You then just need to update the nsjk2 build.properties file with your directory locations and: "ant jkjni" Then follow the instructions in the documentation to build nsjk2 and install from the resulting distribution tarball. "ant all packager" builds everything else and creates the tarball. If you can, I recommend using Tomcat 5 and the latest tag of nsjk2 (nsjk2_v2_beta3) as that is where our effort is concentrated and new enhancements are being added. I agree that the documentation would benefit by including the information above. We'll scrub it accordingly :) -Elizabeth -- AOLserver - http://www.aolserver.com/ To Remove yourself from this list, simply send an email to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> with the body of "SIGNOFF AOLSERVER" in the email message.
