I've been trying to compile the connector for literally *days* now and I'm getting really, really, really, REALLY frustrated. I've even torn out all my java stuff (several times) and reinstalled the defaults (according to ports) just to try to get this to work right. I will be the first to admit that I am no expert on how builds should work as I'm not accustomed to using make or ant or any of those things on my own. I usually install the software I need from ports and leave it at that. My latest attempts to compile the module (following the directions in the README.txt which are pretty vague at best) fail with compiler errors. I currently have jdk1.2.2 installed as that is what the ports initially ask for when installing Tomcat 3 & 4 and Ant. I have also tried with the linux-jdk's, but those just freeze up and eventually give a vm error. I see that several folks have successfully built the module for themselves and so I would like to know HOW this was accomplished. The included README.txt and BUILDING files don't tell me enough to make it clear to me what needs to be done. Neither do the Tomcat docs. For someone like me who just wants to be able to install the software and have it work, this is an *incredibly* frustrating exercise. However, I do thank you all for your responses so far. I do appreciate the pointers and suggestions. Thank you, Scott Georg-W. Koltermann wrote: > I did this a while ago and as far as I remember it went rather > smoothly.
