[Building Sakai] [STRANGE] ERRORS installing SAKAI 2.9.3 on CentOS 6.4 64-bit

Tue Oct 8 02:02:34 PDT 2013

Hi,

I used the tar.gz downloaded from tomcat.apache.org.

Anyway, I'll do a
fresh install of the OS and the other components, all from tar.gz binaries. Sakai, i'll download
the source zip file, and start with a clean build.

thankyou Community,

yours,
