See the > Tomcat install docs. I was using the startup scripts that came with both the jakarta-tomcat-4.1.21-LE-jdk14 and jakarta-tomcat4.1.[18|24]. The problem, as confirmed by Zelkin-san is with SSL in the JDK 1.4.1 current patch set. JDK 1.4.1 works fine when I leave the HTTPS connector off in conf/server.xml. SSL works fine with the HTTPS connector on using JDK 1.3.1. > In many cases, "ports" of Java applications is needless. The binary > is > cross-platform already.

It may not be the pinnacle of safety, but it's something. If you know of a better way run with the standard scripts as a user without a shell account, I'd like to know about it. Learning jail is on my list of things to do, but thanks to tomcat41ctl, it isn't that high at the moment. > Most people are going to > better off downloading the Tomcat binary from http://jakarta.apache.org > than using the FreeBSD port. Just untar it, and run startup.sh. Agreed. One can keep more up to date by downloading the most recent version. Just rename its directory to /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat4.1 without uninstalling a previous port install and one can still use tomcat41ctl to run it as the www user. I like the various alternatives that have been proposed that are configurable. --- Michael Westbay Work: Beacon-IT http://www.beacon-it.co.jp/ Home: http://www1.seaple.icc.ne.jp/westbay Commentary: http://www.japanesebaseball.com/forum/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
