Re: [5.0.20] New build

As these are part of a shipping commercial product, I do not believe I 
can do so without traversing a significant legal morasse.

At a high level they started as simple enough ventures which replace 
configuration files with tokenized (e.g. @@varName@@) versions and then 
do replace operations and set permissions appropriately on UNIX.  At 
that level they directly mimic the Apache web server's binary 
distribution install scripts, but work on UNIX and Windows alike.

As time has passed these have grown to allow automated installation of 
somewhat sophisticated web app configurations in Apache with 
authenticated and anonymous sub-regions of the web apps and 
configuration update/regeneration when a new option is added to the 
configuration.  The scripts also support installation as Windows 
services, creation and installation of self-signed certificates, etc.

All of this has been just enough for our application's needs, but none 
of it is specific to them.

Hey Jess,

I would be interested in seeing your ant scripts to configure tomcat and
apache.  Would you mind posting a URL or sending them to me?
Thanks,
Tim

One area of immediate concern: Is jmx.jar an additional top-level jar
that must be added to CLASSPATH or java command lines to run Tomcat?
Or is it automatically picked up by Bootstrap, etc, as before?  [This
will clearly affect a number automated configurations if this has
indeed changed.]
       

It's in the manifest of the bootstrap.jar. The change is because the
bootstrap needs to register the classloaders so that Tomcat is fully
configurable and remotely "embeddable" through JMX.
     

Ah.  So this part of the change is not due to the licensing snafus.
That's good to know.
   

Of course, Tomcat will run out of the box on JDK 1.5.
     

As is this.

Thanks again.
