Hi Mike.
First, could you fix your system time? Your email came through w/ a
time stamp of 5/11/2004, 11:04am. Unless you've found a really cool
time machine somewhere and can sent email in to the future, this is just
slightly annoying to me.
Regarding your question, if your effort is to eliminate bugs in the
tomcat server, moving to the most recent available 5.5.x tomcat is
probably the best advice. Tomcat 6 isn't a huge change, but there is
some refactoring and folder layout changes that might introduce issues
rather than eliminate them. Plus I suspect there is not a compatibility
package for tomcat 6 like there was for tomcat 5 or 5.5. You'd have to
upgrade your Java version to run tomcat 6.

Hi Folks....
Sorry I'm not very knowledgeable about technical aspects of Tomcat..... I
am having some problems with an application I am running acting rather
weird..... So what I want to do is download a newer version of Tomcat to
try and rule out some possibilities.....
Currently I am running the following....
Tomcat version 5.0.28
Java SDK Standard Edition Version 1.4.2
Java 2 runtime environment
To go to Tomcat 6.xx, can someone please tell me what I need to download...
Binary Distributions Core ZIP ??? I assume, for a windows environment
Where I get confused is the Catalina stuff, or any other small pieces I need
to add to it...... What version of Java do I need to grab....
This is a Paste....
"Tomcat 6.0 is designed to run on JSE 5.0 and later.
In addition, Tomcat 6.0 uses the Eclipse JDT Java compiler for compiling
JSP pages. This means you no longer need to have the complete
Java Development Kit (JDK) to run Tomcat, but a Java Runtime Environment
(JRE) is sufficient. The Eclipse JDT Java compiler is bundled with the
binary Tomcat distributions. Tomcat can also be configured to use the
compiler from the JDK to compile JSPs, or any other Java compiler supported
by Apache Ant. "
So can I remove the Java SDK environment from my server and just download a
a new JRE version 5???? Anyone got this link????
Im sorry for being so inept at this, Im working on improving....
Thank-you to anyone who can answer this for me....
Mike
