The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

FC6 tomcat5 installation for JWChat

Asked by bartsmit in Linux, Fedora Linux

Tags: fc6, tomcat5, jwchat

I have installed wildfire (http://www.igniterealtime.org/projects/wildfire/index.jsp) on Fedora Core 6 with dev tools and Apache2 installed. I now want to be able to let web users sign into wildfire and thought that JWChat (http://jwchat.sf.net/) looked the most suitable. The instructions say that it needs Tomcat so I started with that.

I ran yum -y install tomcat5 which downloaded and installed these packages:
    regexp.i386 1.4-2jpp.2
    ant.i386 1.6.5-2jpp.2
    log4j.i386 1.2.13-3jpp.2
    jakarta-commons-el.i386 1.0-7jpp.1
    jakarta-commons-daemon.i386 1:1.0.1-6jpp.1
    java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-devel.i386 1.4.2.0-40jpp.110
    jakarta-commons-dbcp.i386 1.2.1-7jpp.1
    jakarta-oro.i386 2.0.8-3jpp.1
    gcc-java.i386 4.1.1-30
    tomcat5-server-lib.i386 5.5.17-6jpp.2
    xml-commons-resolver.i386 1.1-1jpp.12
    eclipse-ecj.i386 1:3.2.1-23.fc6
    classpathx-mail.i386 1.1.1-4jpp.2
    jakarta-commons-pool.i386 1.3-5jpp.1
    jakarta-commons-collections.i386 3.1-6jpp.1
    xerces-j2.i386 2.7.1-7jpp.2
    jakarta-commons-httpclient.i386 1:3.0-7jpp.1
    jakarta-commons-fileupload.i386 1:1.0-6jpp.1
    axis.i386 1.2.1-2jpp.6
    jakarta-commons-modeler.i386 1.1-8jpp.1
    xalan-j2.i386 2.7.0-6jpp.1
    libgcj-devel.i386 4.1.1-30
    bcel.i386 5.1-8jpp.1
    tomcat5-jsp-2.0-api.i386 5.5.17-6jpp.2
    jakarta-commons-beanutils.i386 1.7.0-5jpp.1
    xml-commons-apis.i386 1.3.02-0.b2.7jpp.10
    jakarta-commons-launcher.i386 0.9-6jpp.1
    jakarta-commons-discovery.i386 1:0.3-4jpp.1
    tomcat5-common-lib.i386 5.5.17-6jpp.2
    wsdl4j.i386 1.5.2-4jpp.1
    mx4j.i386 1:3.0.1-6jpp.4
    tomcat5-servlet-2.4-api.i386 5.5.17-6jpp.2
    tomcat5-jasper.i386 5.5.17-6jpp.2
    ldapjdk.i386 4.17-1jpp.7
    tomcat5.i386 5.5.17-6jpp.2
    xml-commons.i386 1.3.02-0.b2.7jpp.10
    jakarta-commons-digester.i386 1.7-5jpp.1
    classpathx-jaf.i386 1.0-9jpp.1
    geronimo-specs-compat.i386 1.0-0.M2.2jpp.12
    geronimo-specs.i386 1.0-0.M2.2jpp.12
    jakarta-commons-logging.i386 1.0.4-6jpp.1

After doing service tomcat5 start I eagerly pointed my browser to http://localhost:8080 and got...a blank page. There are no relevant errors in the logs and the tomcat5.conf file doesn't give much to go on. Google produces some reports of similar errors on other platforms where the java vm is the trouble but no indication how to find out more.

Has anybody installed JWChat on FC6 with (or without) the howto on http://www.blochberger.de/en_jwchat_how_to.htm or at least got past the tomcat5 install? I don't really need to get deep into tomcat, just enough to get JWChat to run.
