-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I do have my TDS 4.0 setup on RHEL 5.3 running properly now, just using Red Hat-provided packages - and I'm glad it works, since this is the third or fourth time over a six-month period I've tried to get TDS & Tomcat to work just using Red Hat-supplied components, rather than building from source or using third-party RPMs. I'm repeating myself, but in case it is helpful to others, my issues were: 1) Getting package order correct - The java-sun-compat packages seem to have disappeared from the RHN repos, but Red-Hat-provided jpackage-utils was still necessary, though I used a downrev version since the latest version seemed broken (unfixed bug with /usr/bin/rebuild-security-providers dependency). So first installed jpackage utils, then tomcat5, then the current Red Hat-provided Sun Java: java-1.6.0-sun-1.6.0.14-1jpp.1.el5 java-1.6.0-sun-devel-1.6.0.14-1jpp.1.el5 ..then used alternatives commands to switch Java to Sun Java environment. 2) Then my Apache config was incorrect - I'm running a multiple-vhost Web server, so proxy statements needed to be correct - still the same basic config shown on: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/projects/THREDDS/tech/reference/TomcatBehindProxyServer.html 3) Then I had to ensure new directory for THREDDS was created (/var/lib/tomcat5/content/), with ownership and permissions for the Tomcat user, symlinked from /usr/share/tomcat5/content. 4) Then I was getting a "Requested resource not available" error - had to remember to change ownership on the thredds.war file itself to the Tomcat user. And of course, drop the customized catalog.xml and threddsConfig.xml in place. > I did not have to modify any classpath settings or export them > explicitly - I only corrected the JAVA_HOME in the tomcat5.conf file > to point to the Sun Java, and I exported the CATALINA_HOME and > TOMCAT_HOME in the /etc/profile file, although I'm not sure if that > was even necessary.
