Hi all,
I need direction to an information repository that will explain what I need to do to get java-1.5.0 and tomcat5 installed and running and then allow installation of MIRC software, that requires tomcat5 on jvm-1.5.0 for the newer version.

I have spent nearly two weeks of off ours (read evenings and weekends) . I still have a huge number of issues. In the latest attempt, I have done the following:

1.  reinstalled FC4 as a clean install wiping all HD.
2.  updated FC4 with a simple yum update
3. downloaded java-1.5.0-sun and rebuilt the rpms per Peter Horwarths articles.
4.  installed the java-1.5.0 rpms with yum installlocal *.rpm while in
    /home/localuser/rpmbuild/RPMS/i586/...
5.  Installed tomcat5 with yum --enablerepo=jpackage* install tomcat5
6.  I was then able to go to http://localhost:8080 and get the tomcat page
7.  I then installed the MIRC software - which seemed to go okay,
    but refused connections then I tried to go to http://localhost:8080.

I am not a Java programmer and am new to Tomcat. Is there a concise information sheet on how to set this up with rpms, especially with yum or should I just shuck it and go with the tar.gz, which I have successfully used before but which are harder to upgrade? I am about to wipe this computer and reinstall again so i have a clean starting field, but do not wish to invest any more time in dead-end goose chases.

Thanks

Bob
