[cobalt-developers] RaQ4-Java-Dev-Kit-1.3



To anyone that cares,


The RaQ4-Java-Dev-Kit-1.3.pkg is a great package/kit. We recently migrated from JRun 3.0 Enterprise Edition, to Jakarta-Tomcat. At first we were a little concerned with how Cobalt decided to install and configure Jakarta-Tomcat, but have no worries now.

Its a clean install, that is open to modification. We were able to dial in our RaQ Jakarta-Tomcat to mirror a manually installed version on our development server.

Other than the clean install, I have found Jakarta-Tomcat to have increased performance, speed, and most importantly reliability. Jrun would have to be restarted every couple of months.

The only problem that I have seen so far, is the amount of time it takes Jakarta-Tomcat to start on a RaQ. This is due to Cobalt setting allot of Jakarta-Tomcat's configuration at start time. For example all context entries are added when Jakarta-Tomcat starts. Thus making it difficult to remove certain unneeded context entries for sites not using Java.

If that feature could be worked on, this would be a perfect pkg.

All in all very pleased, and would recommend to any one using Java technology.
