Problem: SuSE 9.0, J2SDK 1.4.2_4, Jakarta Tomcat 5.0.19
 

To all,

I'm having issues with SuSE *NOT* updating file changes without rebooting the machine or waiting approximately 5 minutes. I am running :


--software--
SuSE 9.0 Pro
software RAID [mirror] using ReiserFS on md0
J2SDK 1.4.2_4
Jakarta Tomcat 5.0.19

On:

--hardware--
VIA M 10000 (Nehemiah Core) mini-itx
512 MB DDR RAM
2 80GB ATA100 7200 RPM Seagate HD

This issue crops up when I edit a JSP file either locally or remotely. It *DOES NOT* help even when I stop and restart the Tomcat service.

This is a standard installation for a JS / JSP app server for my workplace. I've done the same implementation on RH 9 without issues (using EXT3, not ReiserFS)... so I am wondering if this is either a SuSE issue or a ReiserFS issue. Any feedback would be welcome.

I searched Google (Like I suggested you do in the email I sent) and found the following links. I would start here.

Getting J2SDK 1.4.0 to work the SuSE way!! ?????

Installation Notes Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition Version 1.5.0 Linux (32-bit)

This is not a java issue. If it were, our application written in JSP and servlets would not compile either in an IDE, CLI, or during run-time.

Here is my solution:

I rebuilt the test server using Slackware. There are no issues with Slack9.1, ReiserFS, Tomcat5, Java SDK1.4.2._4.
