Rate this Message:
Hi folks,
I am running CentOS and am having a terrible time trying to find an RPM for tomcat5.5.26. Some of the ones I have found have dependencies for file that do not appear to exist. If anyone can help me here I would greatly appreciate it, thanks Richard -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@... http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss |

I must also say that I was a Debian sysadmin for the last 5 years before getting this job, so I am no expert at RPMs, and am having a hard time adjusting to YUM... On a server with no GUI, dselect was my best friend ... far more intuitive than what I have see of YUM... but that may be my inexperience with the RPM system showing ;) > > > and I have googled for hours > > and cannot find it.

Yes, that's because CentOS is a rebuild of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, which doesn't (generally) do version-bumps during its life-cycle. Its the whole "long-term support with an unchanging base, so your enterprise apps of today will still run, complete with security updates, 7 years later" thing. > I must also say that I was a Debian sysadmin for the last 5 years before > getting this job, so I am no expert at RPMs, and am having a hard time > adjusting to YUM...

Nothing cli I'm aware of that gives the same functionality as dselect though -- its usually done on Fedora with either yumex or pirut (or now PackageKit), all of which are graphical tools. > > > and I have googled for hours > > > and cannot find it.

I understand that Fedora > and RHEL (centOS) are different, but CentOS seems a loooong way > behind .. Yeah, you'd likely have to bring over a number of other F7 packages too. For the record, RHEL3 (and thus CentOS 3) branched off of Fedora Core 1. RHEL4 branched off of Fedora Core 3 or so. RHEL5 branched off of Fedora Core 6. So yeah, CentOS 5 is indeed older than Fedora 7. > > > ...
