I have witango 062 running on Redhat 9. A couple of things --
* apache version is important. The RH httpd RPM will not work, as the plugin interface changed after 2.044. 2.047 is the current apache2 version. There was also a configuration switch I had to set in ./config. Note that ./config will place everything in /usr/local/apache2, rather than in /etc/httpd (? default redhat location? ). Accordingly modify the /etc/init.d/httpd script. * Things are going swimmingly with unixODBC-2.2.3-6, though I don't know why an earlier version wouldn't work. * I had some issues with the JVM and earlier witango builds, but follow the sun installation and just point to the jvm in witango.ini (which points to the default location provided by Sun) I meant to write and post clear instructions, but I also had a few false starts, so my instructions got confused. Contact me off list if you want some more help. >We are trying to install Witango Server for Linux.
