The ASF generally doesn't provide binaries for stuff. For instance, go to httpd.apache.org and try to download a binary. Other than win32 and Netware, it's source-only. The Java world has the luxury of being bytecode-compatible so "binaries" are made available for lots of Java-related projects (and these days, most code available through the ASF is Java-based). > If it's a resources limitation, I have a publicly-accessible > TeamCity server with an unlimited OpenSource license hosting > Windows 7, Mac OS X SLeopard/Lion/MLion, Debian, RedHat, and SuSE > agents that I would be happy to donate some resources from.

No, the problem is that there are so many different combinations of platform, environment, etc. that it would represent an explosion of options that would never meet everyone's needs. Building mod_jk just isn't that difficult. The only legitimate complaint that I have heard is that most responsible admins don't have a build chain available on a production server. We solve that by building on a test server and pushing the binaries out to our production servers. Others may do other things. I do know that Debian-based distros of Linux can install the "libapache2-mod-jk" package, though it is often out-of-date with respect to the currently-available version. Inexplicably, Red Hat does not provide mod_jk binaries through their package manager. I'm not sure about Suse and others. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.14 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJR9oeqAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRYqgIQAJoOGzj4DaGSSVBxvbirosQ9 0fm9u03CGeV1IVlpGL/Uu0Q5q2J9bGn+UkrNlw20Aa3xmKkpC8FQ+qC7Es0GYxQ9 RuAG7348XtSDsc+xiPj8FTNul8nEsFrku/lu2Bn/pVXtWhg0dR9Bzby2SjMreF5L Deh5WCtLapIDka+38O1RBWvGTBXU3Y7fuPnY16oCuW9Pt5xB1v3c5dtbkLFuodKb rItoKwnsZPT+YrNGziwM4uPpeKT23e1i8I38fIBrH4eHgLFQdfs2it2+SecBwcml N5yAwtsddE+f4ru4Wi/w0K6FWMsk3bY9eVC7im6/vqJv7QaCxjH5lA0K1Fgzt+ZE kPBk+Y4lAMgWXA3ajQPXadxR+xYbqhKEld5m0NJd1BmdwHtVq0bQvsi9gim+ZZ98 KznPi/+AZrff1X4J/P0eYGZtY5wudBe4pYYzzXDaDhmWwgMi6c085NCD6bbfUvqc uyle2xbiWYPVmhSv9K5wBOUK88hDBaYwRb/AUdN3XIamZqdgbVtTslNkhVThb+/f oAjM47Hjcp9zlw5Q+fMj2K7q2ryDcapRBeqUkFfwKzlVn2q2KgfH/VIUXrBoQPO+ NVex2/cDd4A8L+9bHPPacquyFftah+R3LhMyZQJAHXHSidKbL+Yfy/9lDntQWwhB oxUzIUCmY+ifxJU7hLMT =OKVj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
