Tomcat5 on Tiger (intel iMac)
I'm trying to set up jemboss on my Mac for the lab. Has anyone got a succesful install of tomcat?
I get as far as
distfiles/tomcat5/apache-tomcat-5.5.15-src] rpg% sudo ant
[time passes]
[style] at org.apache.tools.ant.launch.Launcher.main(Launcher.java:67)

------------------
fink and darwinports keep failing to find files, so this is horrible mash of distributions. I'd be grateful for any help.

eventually. . .
Well, I finally managed to get Tomcat5 and Axis working. I'm not sure exactly how, but a combination of Darwinports and Fink, and manually downloading, unpacking and repackaging certain tarballs, and manually copying various .jars into the right place, and it's working.
Now I can think about Jemboss. Phew.

Any chance you could provide a link to your working version?
What, to the website itself?
What, to the website itself? "I'm afraid I can't do that Dave", without asking the Comp Support guys to open a hole in the DMZ. The reason for installing it was to provide a service to my department, not to the entire world ;) It's possible, but seeing as Jemboss won't install it's a little bit pointless.
I believe anyone within .usyd.edu.au can see my machine, but outside that, not at the moment.
I can try and bundle up /opt/local/share/java/tomcat5 and distribute *that* if you like? Although I haven't quite figured out where all the config files are, so it'd take some work to make it portable.
