Actually, I am just in the process of trying the same setup - TDS 4.0
on RHEL 5.3. I did not build anything from source, or use third-party
RPMS, because I am trying to use only Red-Hat-provided packages (so
that they are auto-updated by the Red Hat Network), so I am installing
Red-Hat-provided Sun Java 1.6. The JPackage RPMs conflict with the Red
Hat RPMs - if you have both repositories on a Red Hat machine, you
will get packaging conflicts with the xml-commons packages (at least I
did - YMMV). The sun-compat packages seem to have gone away, they're
not listed using yum anymore.
My install sequence was:
- - yum install jpackage-utils
- - yum install tomcat5 (40 packages!)
- - yum install java-1.6.0-sun
- - yum install java-1.6.0-sun-devel
then use /etc/alternatives commands to switch Java version from the
GCJ crap:
/usr/sbin/alternatives --config java
/usr/sbin/alternatives --config javac
Then I had to create a /var/lib/tomcat5/content dir for THREDDS to
expand into (with tomcat ownership and permissions), an additional
symlink from /usr/share/tomcat5/content to /var/lib/tomcat5/content.
