After a lengthy fight, i have the pleasure to tell the list that a) The Compaq JDK 1.3.1 for Linux/Alpha works on FreeBSD under /compat/linux b) If this e-mail reaches the list, it works sufficiently well to run Tomcat 4.0.4b2 as i am sending it from the Tomcat sample sendmail.jsp The install is rather rough but goes as follows A) Install linux_compat-7 B) Install lesstiff-0.9.3 (Could not get the ICS Openmotif lib to work on real Linux either!?) (compaq java expects libXm.so.2 but lesstiff is sufficiently compatible for most tasks, so a symlink to libXm.so.1.0.2 will suffice) C) Install compaq libots and compaq cpml D) build the libots.so and libcpml.so libraries by hand with linux_devel OR build them on a real linux-alpha machine (perhaps we could host pre-built ones somewhere) E) Install the J2SDK rpm F) Edit /compat/linux/usr/java/jdk1.3.1/bin/java to use /compat/linux/bin/sh and /compat/linux/usr/bin/expr G) Enjoy Will post further details as they appear Regards Roberto BTW, The experiment is being done on an AS 2100 A that is unable to run linux! running 4.5-RELEASE To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
