Please bear with me with this simple question which shouldn't be raised in an expert mailing list. I'd appreciate if you'd give me just a pointer.
I have successfully installed jdk1.1, ibmjdk1.1.8. simply because they've .deb file. Recently I'm asked to upgrade to jdk1.3. How may I install the jdk1.3 in Debian without deb packages? Is there any symbolic links and library I should place in right place so that dependencies like cocoon, tomcat and gnujsp, etc. could recognize it by default? Please advise! Lau. P.S. I'd perfer ibm jdk1.3 as we are mainly using Oracle.
