Hi James,

I ran the WOInstaller.jar built by Mike Schrag a couple of days ago. Some issues I discovered

1. WOInstaller.jar was designed for Mac OS X and Windows. Hence it mistakes linux as being not Windows so it must be Mac OS X. This means it uses the Mac OS X file layout

Local root = path + /  ( eg /Library/WebObjects/Configurations )
NEXT_ROOT = path + /System ( eg /System/Library/WebObjects/Frameworks/ JavaWebObjects.framework)

rather than the UNIX layout

Local root = path + /Local ( eg /opt/apple/Local/Library/WebObjects/ Configurations ) NEXT_ROOT = path + / ( eg /opt/apple/Library/WebObjects/Frameworks/ JavaWebObjects.framework)

2. symlinks within frameworks are absolute references rather than relative. Hence it is not easy to change to the UNIX layout after you have installed in the Mac OS X layout.

3. The following files need to be executable to work (chmod required)
wotaskd
javamonitor
SpawnOfWotaskd.sh
javawoservice.sh

4. didn't create /opt/apple/Local/Library/WebObjects/Configurations which wotaskd looks for. wotaskd does distinguish between Mac OS X and UNIX file layouts.

Other than that it worked great. I had already built the apache adaptor on another debian linux box a few months agos so I was able to copy the binary across to this new one without any problems.

Is there a good link to instructions on how to deploy on Linux, RedHat?

I want to learn how to do this. Was there someone out there making an installer or such?

Thanks
