Subject: Re: Trouble with install
I personally wouldn't sue anyone. Being Australian as well doesn't lend
itself to sueing either.
Though it is a different story with these guys. If anything "breaks" all
hell breaks loose. Loosing just one customer could literally mean millions
of dollars. And if they lose that they certainly will look for someone to
reclaim that from. At least if it breaks they would want someone there
yesterday.
I will try it with JDK1.2.2 on our sun's and I will try an other on my
Linux.
So you still maintain its the VM ? What happens after loading the last
portlet www.slashdot.org/slashdot.rdf from the defaultPortlets.xml ?
Thanks again
