I try to install tomcat with the urpmi and it always stops becouse I need som dependics. I have downloaded all files that it needed but when I try to install them nothing happens. I just get my shell back.
Next time i run urpmi tomcat4-4.1.27-2jpp.noarch.rpm
i get the same error that the dependics is not installed.
I don't know what to do anymore. I hope you can help me.
I can't fund anything in the logfiles. Its 0 byte big so the
server stops before it has written anything to the logfiles.
The program you are installing may need to be told where your Java package is installed. You'll have to read the documentation to see how to edit the config scripts, what switches you might need to compile, and so on.
You can't run Java as a program by itself. The Java package provides libraries and objects to run Java programs, it's not a program.
From the Sun Java site:
"Q: How do I install the JavaMail API implementation?
A: Unzip the distribution zip file and edit your CLASSPATH environment variable to include the mail.jar file that was included with the JavaMail API distribution. You will also need an implementation of the JavaBeans Activation Framework (see below). See the README file (in the distribution) for additional details and examples."
I would say your best bet is to read up on how to install the Java objects and/or api's you need and give it another try.
