Hey!

Thanks for the links.. what did you search for? :confused:

kunal

I found that this is the best documentation

http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/
Did you tried?

thanks for the link.. but what about plain old java? :)

I guess that you already was here, but not sure

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/install-linux.html

Kunal, how did you try to install java?

All you need to do is go to Sun's site, download the linux .bin file to the server, chmod 755 the .bin file, and execute it in the directory you want it deployed in (eg /usr/local).

Jedito : ive already installed java according to those instructions.. thanks for the link though

Ive already done this... BUT how do i know if java is installed? :)

Kunal

Assuming you installed it in /usr/local/java:

/usr/local/java/bin/java -version

or more simply

$JAVA_HOME/bin/java -version

where $JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/java

./java -version
/usr/java/jdk1.3.1_02/bin/i386/native_threads/java: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory



woops. :rolleyes:

Try google:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=libstdc%2B%2B-libc6.1-1.so.2

You may have the file it's looking for, just not called what it thinks it's called. We had it by default on our FreeBSD java machine with Linux compat installed.

Read the install instruction. This problem is mentioned in the doc.
