Re: apache and java



Hi,

You don't need in to install any JVM for the base system. I always install isolated copies. I am using IBM jre 1.4x for eclipse (since Sun's jvm is buggy) but use Sun's JDK 1.5 for Tomcat (code I am working on requires jdk 1.5). All you need t do is download tar balls and not the RPMs and then declare appropriate JAVA_HOME rather than exporting a JAVA_HOME to env. I have defined JAVA_HOME in my catalina.sh.

I am going to set up a local webserver on a amd64 machine for dev reasons. I will probably use java scripts on the server. Do I need to set up a 32chroot for apache and sun java, or can I use pure64? I am not sure about this at all. I know if I wanted to play with java in my firefox and flash, I would need a 32chroot unless I wanted to go with blackdown and forgo the flash, but what if I just wanted something for local serving for dev?

You can run of course Apache on AMD64 and there is a 64-bit release of
Sun's JDK 5 for AMD64, as well as a 64-bit release of IBM's JDK 1.4.2
for this architecture. However, if you want to use the Java plug-in, you
need a 64-bit of it, which I think Blackdown might have available, but
the others don't. I still chose to install Blackdown's Java Plug-In in
the 32-bit chroot because the latest official release of their JDK has
no debugging support (at least not from Eclipse). They said on this list


I forgot to add that I didn't want to install it in the base system,
because I didn't want to mess up with the other two JDK's I have
installed for development.
