This is nothing personal. I really would like to see you get the help you need. However, you didn't even tell anyone what operating system you are using.

Hi Steve: How exactly does one go about installing the Tomcat 4.0.* correctly??? What problem are you having? What platform? I installed pre-compiled tomcat 4.0.4 on my Solaris box and it worked fine.

Re: STILL Need Help w. Tomcat Install
If you will try again and document exactly what you do, I will be happy to chime in with where I think you ought to change things. You must be missing something fundamental, because the documentation on this is pretty good. Micael YOU WROTE How exactly does one go about installing the Tomcat 4.0.* correctly???

I have racked my brain in trying to figure out how to do this, but I simply cannot do it myself, I am afraid to say! Thanx in advance to anyone who can help me! Speaking of list volume... Since 99% of the people here simply Reply to the e-mail, 99% of the responses to your pleas should have the SAME SUBJECT as you used originally (this e-mail is a perfect example). If your e-mail client can not filter, sort, or whatever by e-mail subject, then you simply need to get a better client. Clearly your current client is not adequate to the tasks for which you wish to use it (for example, managing a high volume mailing list). As far as your request, you give NO details as to what is wrong, or how you think your installation is not correct. No details whatsoever. You don't say what things you've tried, what documents you refered to for guidance in those attempts, and how they are not working. The basic, binary install works just peachy out of the box. Extract it to someplace appropriate, cd $WHERE_YOU_EXTRACTED_IT/bin, type 'startup.sh' or 'startup.bat', and boom, it works. Your JAVA_HOME environment variable must be set. It's that simple. Finally, the point of a mailing list is not simply a forum to scream and shout for help, its a community for sharing knowledge. Just like a USENET newsgroup, the value in the mailing list is seeing how the problems that people have are worked out ON the mailing list, thus when someone else has a problem, the archives will hopefully have the answers. There are few things more aggravating that seeing nothing but pleas but no answers in a mailing list. That makes it essentially worthless, both for the current readers and for future readers. So, never expect private mail, particularly early on, from a public forum. It's not fair to anyone. But, why am I saying all of this, when you won't read it anyway.

Re: STILL Need Help w. Tomcat Install
Steve, People have tried to help you. Case in point, you emailed me directly asking me the following Now, would you please list, very methodically, all of the various steps involved in installing Tomcat?! Incidentally, I am trying/attempting to install version 4.0.4 without too damned many problems that I might encounter. I responded with the following First I'd have to know what OS you are installing on. I won't be able to give out any Unix specific install info since I work on Windows. I also need to know what difficulties you are having with your current install. I'd love to help you, but I'm not going to run through every last detail of an install because that is what the existing docs and the archives of this list are for. Once you give me some base info to work from, we can try to figure out the issue you are having. I am still awaiting a response letting me know what you are having trouble with, specifically. If you aren't going to bother writing back information that I need to help you out, I'm not going to go out of my way to help you. I offered my help and you ignored the offer. The only reason I can see for this behavior is that you want the solution spoon-fed to you so others do the work for you and you just benefit from the advice without having to do much of any work. Please don't flame back at me for this statement. If you believe the statement is a mis-characterisation of your intent, then prove me wrong by actually providing some evidence that you, in fact, *have* read the available documentation. Until you do this, you have nothing to say to anyone else and no one else has *any* obligation to answer your pleas for help. Note: I am still willing to help you out, but please take the above into account before asking for more help in the future. Make sure you define what you have done so far and what exactly you are having difficulty with. No one here will write a book for you just in case one of those steps might just solve your issue. Narrow your scope and you might get some better responsesand please stop with the this is Steve Burris in your email. We know who you are based on the from header in the email. You don't need to tell us again. later, Jake At 12:50 PM 8/21/2002 -0700, you wrote: This is Steve Burrus again, and I am damned sorry to have to post my plea for help/assistance again, but everyday when I first access my email there are literally 100's of postings from other members of the Tomcat newsgroup, and my original post--and any response--is VERY DIFFICULT to locate, so here it is again: How exactly does one go about installing the Tomcat 4.0.* correctly???
