Yes, suse packages are not blank and I honestly expected the same from the
RHEL4 packages in the development channel. Not only was nothing included BUT
it also didn't have a seperate package in the dev channel for tomcat5-admin
or tomcat5-webapps .. what's up with that?
Thanks for running through things with me.. I know it was running, just really
didn't expect to go into webapps dir and find nothing (never had to do that
since when I installed via source all was there.. Oh we.. I just copied what
I had on my prod box (installed from source) to my test box..
Now to install php and check to see if I can get it to work with tomcat (not
something I really want to do, but a damn last second requirement..) have you
had experience with this and php 4.4.x?
