diablo-jdk not installing correctly
Hi, I want to install java and tomcat. After some time trying I could not install the JDK, I first tried to install diablo jdk 1.6. I go to /usr/ports/java/diablo-jdk1.6, turns out that I have to go through further step due to licensing, I do that step and go to http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/downloads/java.shtml and choose: Diablo Caffe JDK 1.6.0-7 FreeBSD 7.x/i386 End-User 61M diablo-jdk-freebsd7.i386.1.6.0.07.02.tbz I read and accept the licensing terms, then I do pkg_add Diablo Caffe JDK 1.6.0-7 FreeBSD 7.x/i386 End-User 61M diablo-jdk-freebsd7.i386.1.6.0.07.02.tbz and the problem starts, it's requiring me to install javavmwrapper In install the respoective port then try again pkg_add Diablo Caffe JDK 1.6.0-7 FreeBSD 7.x/i386 End-User 61M diablo-jdk-freebsd7.i386.1.6.0.07.02.tbz and it turns out that I also need a different version of x libraries, for example, I'm required to install: xtrans-1.0.4 I go to sysinstall and I realize that because my version of FreeBSD is 7.3, but it already includes the newer versions of xtrans, I am currently downloading a previous version of FreeBSD (7.1) to see if it has the required previous version of xtrans, I am concerned because according to the literature diablo is supposed to be the maintained jdk for FreeBSD. And I realize that I am having to download version 7.1 when we are already on version 8.0 of FreeBSD to make java work My question is: is Java in FreeBSD an experimental/academic package? Should I rather go with the linux compatibility way? Am I doing things incorrectly? thank you herbey ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Maybe so, but it seems some ports are calling out diablo-jdk as a dependency. I know I didn't explicitly choose to install it. I should probably rtfm, but is there a way to force ports to use openjdk instead? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Hi http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/java/diablo-jdk16/ cd /usr/ports/java/diablo-jdk16 make install 2.Download the package manually from the links provided by Ports. This is due to licensing issues. 3.Copy the downloaded file into /usr/ports/distfiles. 4.Launch the installation again 5.Maybe you need repeat step 2 and download another package. Note: Please note that due to the current Sun licensing policy the resulting binaries can not be distributed and you are only permitted to use/hack it personally. Due to the same reasons you have to manually fetch the source code and patchset for FreeBSD. If you should have trouble, you can see the FreeBSD Handbook section on installing applications for help. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports.html this port Requires: inputproto-1.5.0, javavmwrapper-2.3.4, kbproto-1.0.3, libICE-1.0.4_1,1, libSM-1.1.0_1,1, libX11-1.2.1_1,1, libXau-1.0.4, libXdmcp-1.0.2_1, libXext-1.0.5,1, libXi-1.2.1,1, libXp-1.0.0,1, libXt-1.0.5_1, libXtst-1.0.3_1, libpthread-stubs-0.3_3, libxcb-1.5, pkg-config-0.23_1, printproto-1.0.4, recordproto-1.13.2, xextproto-7.0.5, xproto-7.0.15 javavmwrapper-2.3.4 this port does not Requires another http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/java/javavmwrapper/ Your problem its with xtrans (diablo-jdk16 and javavmwrapper does not Requires xtrans) Maybe you need upgrade your ports http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports-using.html Regards. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
