Recommended Environment

[Bill Bailey]

For what it's worth, I just recently installed the WAR file on Red Hat
Enterprise Server ES Version 4 and it seems to be working fine for me.

 

I did not install the IBM JVM on the box, but I believe it was part of
the extras CD and not part of the Complete install. I installed the Sun
JDK on the box myself and updated the environment (JAVA_HOME, etc.) to
point to this JVM.

 

I have not tried pulling and the source and building CAS on Red Hat
since I had no real need to do so ... so I can't say whether building it
on Red Hat would present any problems or not.

 

Bill

Rob,

I've successfully compiled and deployed CAS using the following
environments:

* Windows XP
* Linux (Ubuntu, though I would guess others would work)
* Solaris
* Mac OS X

Containers:
* Tomcat
(though others have run it on other containers)

I've only tested using the Sun JVM though.  CAS uses no internal Sun
classes however that would prevent it from running on another JVM.

Have you been able to successfully run the test WAR file on your Red Hat
Enterprise system?

Well, I've been trying for several weeks to get CAS running on RedHat
Enterprise 5 without success, mainly due to incompatibilities with java
-- even the latest RC can't be built with Maven because of IBM/GNU Java 
issues.

At this point, I'm getting a bit desperate -- before I recommend a
different solution to the college, I'd like to make one last-ditch
effort by taking the RedHat distribution out of the equation.  If any 
one could kindly answer a few questions for me, I'd greatly appreciate
the time:

- What distribution has the greatest chance of successfully compiling
and deploying Maven/CAS?

- Are there any recommendations on pre-built packages/RPMs for these 
distributions that would facilitate this?  Ideally, they'd be available
with the distribution itself.

- Have any pre-configured distributions been compiled into an ISO or
even something along the lines of a VMWare appliance been released from 
which we can use as a base starting or reference point?

Thank you,
RHW
