Here we provide source rpms to create a rpm based Tomcat distribution which
|
|
just installs the original Apache Tomcat distribution in a rpm system and
|
|
FSH compatible manner (i.e. install into /usr/share/tomcatX, /etc/tomcatX, ...)
|
|
|
|
Tomcat as distributed by jPackage.org, Red Hat, SuSE and others replace some
|
|
libraries of the Apache Tomcat distribution by (hopefully) equivalent general
|
|
Java packages and place them for system-wide usage (and indepentend updates)
|
|
into /usr/share/java directory tree. Furthermore they inject extra capabilities,
|
|
which may not been desired and may conflict with a CCM installation. Also,
|
|
system wide installed jars introduce dependencies from other programs and
|
|
you may end up in the well known "dependency hell".
|
|
|
|
This causes trouble in some circumstances.
|
|
|
|
The source rpm creates a self contained distribution which is just dependent
|
|
on a Java installation.
