Re: Is there a FAQ for installing Apache on V5R4? -- WEB400

Yes. Port 2001. Works pretty slick. Slick enough so that we made a graphing application, with drilldown, etc. Very snazzy. And then we installed it on the V5R4. oops. We need JDK 1.5 or above. No problem! Its installed too. Ooops.. yeah, installed but the server at V5 R4 won't see it. (Lots of help from folks on this forum to get that far, by the way.) So we installed all the PTFs we could find, all the licensed programs, etc. Still doesn't allow JDK 1.5.
So, now we are looking for some way to run a Java application that needs JDK 1.5.

(What we are trying to do is to eat our own cooking. I am an IBM bigot who likes the midrange platform. I want to run a current state of the art complete application on the midrange machine. I understand that there are cheaper ways, possibly even better ways, but I want to stay with the platform that has given me a living for quite a while now.)

Apache is a HTTP web server. It is installed on a default system (the DG1 option). It is all that is needed for straight html, javascript and RPGLE/CGI.
Even though product installed, there is a setup/config to do, and the tcp server for *http defaults to autostart=*no.
I don't have the links but there is a redbook on the Apache setup and admin, plus many prev postings.

Websphere Express or Websphere App Server is a Web Application Server for Java, JSP's, etc.

So what is it your going to be doing on your system.

Isn't the webserver on V5R4 based on Apache? What does the regular release
provide that the built-in one doesn't?

Or is it even possible? What are the pros and cons?
