Tomcat comes as a binary. Just download the binary distribution. See: http://tomcat.apache.org/download-55.cgi#5.5.12
On linux, I normally create a special user for Tomcat and make it a mamber of the same group that the user that runs Apache is under. This is www for Fedora Core 4. I usually install Java under /opt or /usr, and then link the current Java version to /opt/java or /usr/java. I then put /opt/java/bin or /usr/java/bin the path BEFORE /usr/bin, since Fedora Core 4 installs GNU's Java. This is not a bad thing, but setting up the path in /etc/profile is a good thing. Just a few thoughts. I hope this gets you started. /mde/ --- brown wrap <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I had been trying to avoid actually building Tomcat, > I > was trying to use a Linux binary. __________________________________ Start your day with Yahoo! - Make it your home page! http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
