Operating system? > If so are there any gotchas with JDKs, 64 bit Tomcat etc? Tomcat is pure Java, so runs in a Java Virtual Machine (JVM). The "virtual" here is key - the VM isolates Java classes from the machine architecture. If there's a Sun JVM available for your OS and architecture, Tomcat should run. It may or may not run on other JVMs, but avoid the rather idiosyncratic GNU one - we get fairly regular reports of issues with it. > Also we use > some specific libraries - ojdbc14, bfopdf, ojdbc14 for example.

If the libraries are pure Java, the architecture of the underlying system is irrelevant. - Peter --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
