[Building Sakai] Recommanded OS X dev setup...

[Speelmon, Lance Day]

What Steve said...  I have a copy of tomcat 5.5.x downloaded locally and my workflow often involves the following when I need a clean environment:

rm -rf apache-tomcat-5.5.26
tar -xzvf apache-tomcat-5.5.26.tar.gz

L

PS - You probably want the version of Tomcat Sakai 2.7.0 is being QA'd against (5.5.28 I think (which requires -Dorg.apache.jasper.compiler.Parser.STRICT_QUOTE_ESCAPING=false I think))

Hi Kirk,

Sakai hasn't been QA'd on Tomcat 6 yet so best stick with 5.5.x for now.

That being said, I've had it running under Tomcat 6 in the past. In Tomcat 6, the common classloader has been collapsed into loading only from the $CATALINA_BASE/lib directory, whereas there was a shared/ directory in 5.5.x. You can alter this in Tomcat 6 by editing CATALINA_BASE/conf/catalina.properties and change the line "shared.loader=" to "shared.loader=${catalina.base}/shared/classes,${catalina.base}/shared/lib/*.jar" .

YMMV, so recommend 5.5.x

cheers,
Steve

Lance,

Have you also gotten Sakai 2 working in the Tomcat that comes on Snow
Leopard (Server)?  Its a 6x Tomcat.

If so, I'd like to get some details from you...

Thanks,
Kirk


FYI - I am currently running 10.6.2, 64-bit java 1.6 with the following
settings for both Sakai 2 and Sakai 3 development:
export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/Home
export JAVA_OPTS="-d64 -server -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m
-Djava.awt.headless=true -Dsun.lang.ClassLoader.allowArraySyntax=true"

The "-Dsun.lang.ClassLoader.allowArraySyntax=true" is for Sakai 2
compatibility.  L
