Easier said than done. 1) The unpacking of the sun jdk uses options on the tail command that are no longer supported on FC4 + Rawhide. 2) The java-1.4.2-sun-fonts-1.4.2.10-1jpp.i586.rpm that is created does not play will with the new modular X (/usr/X11R6/ directory has been changed to be FHS compliant). 3) The j2ee JDK went fine. 4) The installation of java-1.4.2-sun-compat-1.4.2.09-1jpp.src.rpm went fine. 5) Using "alternatives" set java & javac to point to the Sun versions. 6) Now the installation of netbeans-5.0-beta2 goes fine, but the installation of Sun's Application Server 8.1-2005Q2 will not install. It gets the following in the installation log: (Wed Dec 21 18:50:10 CST 2005) Installing Appserver...

I have installed: compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-133 compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.fc4 I suspect that one of these s/b removed, but I don't know which one. I may be bringing this information to the wrong place. RH Bugzilla doesn't see the right place since these are jpackage and Sun packages, yet I cannot find a Bug Reporting system for either of those. Pointers to the proper place to file this info would be gratefully accepted. Someone in a previous post suggested trying Jonas instead of Sun's AS. Unfortunately, netbeans doesn't play nice with Jonas yet (deployment module for Jonas is being worked on Open Source community, but it isn't done yet). It was also suggested that I use Tomcat. I don't believe Tomcat has an EJB container (but I could be wrong). Thanks.
