As I continue the effort to make Tomcat the default web server daemon over Apache 2, I am trying to use jsvc. I unpacked it successfully and followed the instructions at http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/setup.html
steps: tar xvfz jsvc.tar.gz cd jsvc-src autoconf But the final configure step aborted due to a javac error: Godaddy provides Sun's jdk1.5.0_17. Other posts encountered the same issue due to a jdk by another vendor and solved their issue by switching to sun's jdk which I already have. Could this be some kind of version incompatibility between tomcat 5.5 and jdk1.5.0_17? Any thoughts or advice, are much appreciated ./configure --with-java=/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_17 *** Current host *** checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking cached host system type... ok *** C-Language compilation tools *** checking for gcc... gcc checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of executables... checking for suffix of object files... o checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes checking for gcc option to accept ISO C89... none needed checking for ranlib... ranlib *** Host support *** checking C flags dependant on host system type... ok *** Java compilation tools *** checking JAVA_HOME... /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_17 checking for javac... /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_17/bin/javac checking wether the Java compiler (/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_17/bin/javac) works... no configure: error: installation or configuration problem: javac cannot compile --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
