In the absence of such, info about 6.1 would also be greatly appreciated. I'm also curious about whether I need to consider installing Linux compatability so I can install a Linux-based JVM, vs. the native JVMs now available. If the Linux compat layer is not needed to achieve a stable environment, that would be great. I'm happy to RTFM on this, but I can't seem to find info about *version combinations on FreeBSD in specific*, and thus specific ports/packages that may be "production worthy". If I were to go to the Tomcat website, read the info about the JVM version required for my favorite version of Tomcat and install them both, I might end up with an installation that demonstrates problems specific to the FreeBSD ports, so I want to be careful here. If I've missed some obvious documentation, I apologize in advance. Thank you.

For Java 1.5, we just downloaded the latest package from http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/downloads/java.shtml. As to Tomcat 5.5 we just used the ports package (the www/tomcat55 package in /usr/ports). We've never used Java on Linux compat in production, as we found the packages provided by the FreeBSD Foundation to be good enough. Hope that helps. cheers, CP Gordon Smith wrote: > Now that FreeBSD 6.2 is out, can anyone recommend specific releases of > JVM and Tomcat that deliver a really stable and fast (emphasizing > stable) J2EE platform on 6.2?

Knowing that the "vanilla" releases just plain work is good news. How long have you had that implementation in production? What kind of apps are you running on Tomcat, and what kind of loads are the apps handling? Has anyone used Java & Tomcat on FreeBSD 6.2 yet (or 6.1)? Cheers, Gordon Smith -----Original Message----- Hi Gordon, We use FreeBSD 6.1 with Tomcat 5.5, running on Java 1.5. For Java 1.5, we just downloaded the latest package from http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/downloads/java.shtml. As to Tomcat 5.5 we just used the ports package (the www/tomcat55 package in /usr/ports). We've never used Java on Linux compat in production, as we found the packages provided by the FreeBSD Foundation to be good enough. Hope that helps. cheers, CP Gordon Smith wrote: >Now that FreeBSD 6.2 is out, can anyone recommend specific releases of JVM >and Tomcat that deliver a really stable and fast (emphasizing stable) J2EE >platform on 6.2?

We use it as our middleware data access layer (XMLRPC) and because we control the load on it, each instance is not handling more that 2 requests at a time (but they are being called continuously - no rest for the wicked :)). (At the risk of starting a flame war) - If you are after performance then you really can't go past the IBM JVM. (I don't know why) but their JVM seems to beat the Sun JVM on the same OS and hardware. Unfortunately IBM doesn't provide binaries for FreeBSD - it's only available for Linux. :( cheers, CP Gordon Smith wrote: > CP, > > Thank you - I appreciate the info you've given us.

This is a development platform, but it's been rock solid . Eclipse is somewhat less stable, but it's also not pure java.
