| [11:09] <amanulla> yes | |
| [11:09] <amanulla> im running tomcat on xp | |
| [11:09] <persia> OK. Does apt-get install tomcat5.5 work for you? | |

| [11:10] <amanulla> sudo apt-get install ecclipse | |
| [11:10] <amanulla> in terminal | |
| [11:10] <amanulla> but no use | |
| [11:10] <amanulla> ok i will try now | |
| [11:11] <amanulla> some error | |
| [11:11] <amanulla> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. | |
| [11:11] <persia> apt-get install netbeans should work. If it doesn't, I'll be personally annoyed. | |
| [11:11] <persia> Oh, something is broken in your apt-cache. Run the suggested command. | |
| [11:11] <amanulla> oh same error | |
| [11:12] <amanulla> what can i do | |
| [11:12] <persia> What error do you get from dpkg --configure -a ? | |
| [11:13] <amanulla> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied) | |
| [11:13] <amanulla> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root? | |
| [11:13] <persia> OK. sudo dpkg --configure -a | |
| [11:14] <amanulla> i got some screen | |
| [11:14] <amanulla> http://paste.ubuntu.com/53405/ | |
| [11:14] <amanulla> like above | |
| [11:14] <persia> OK. Answer the question. | |
| [11:15] <amanulla> which one to select | |
| [11:15] <amanulla> install the package maintainer's version │ | |
| [11:15] <amanulla> │ keep the local version currently installed │ | |
| [11:15] <amanulla> │ show the differences between the versions │ | |
| [11:15] <amanulla> │ show a side-by-side difference between the versions │ | |
| [11:15] <amanulla> │ start a new shell to examine the situation | |
| [11:15] <persia> Dunno. I usually install the package maintainer's version, but if you made changes, you might want one of the other choices. | |
| [11:29] <amanulla> thank u im now installing tomcat | |
| [11:30] <amanulla> but i dont know how to open it afetr installation can u | |
| [11:32] <persia> No idea. I know *lots* of work went into tomcat recently, but I haven't used it since 2001, so anything I might be able to remember is surely out of date. | |
| [11:32] <persia> There should be some documentation in /usr/share/doc/tomcat5.5/ which might help. | |
| [11:32] <amanulla> ok thank you | |
| [11:33] <amanulla> for spending your time to help me | |
| [11:33] <amanulla> have a nice day | |
| [11:33] <amanulla> take care bye | |
| [11:33] <persia> You too. | |
| [13:23] <cfm> Hi, installing Java on 8.04 LTS Server. Picked openjdk-6-jre-headless, but it wants to install all kind of extras including X11 and GTK. | |
| [13:23] <cfm> Any way to avoid all this? | |
| [13:32] <cfm> Ah, found sun-java5-jre package, which looks a lot nicer! Any reason this package wasn't suggested by the system when I ran "java"? | |
| [14:12] <persia> cfm: The recommendation is for openjdk because we can fix bugs. the sun binary blob has some bugs that cannot be fixed. With luck, you won't hit them. | |
| [14:13] <persia> For Intrepid we've spent a lot of time trying to make -headless more -headless, but may not have succeeded entirely. For 8.04, it's unfortunately bloated. Sorry about that. | |
| [14:19] <persia> slytherin: I didn't give back jhope (or whatever). Just build-depending on sun-java5-jdk isn't enough, because the build-dependency on ant pulls in headless openjdk. You'll need to find some way to advise the build which JDK to use. | |
| [14:20] <slytherin> persia: Got it. Will do over weekend. | |
| [14:21] <persia> slytherin: Great. Poke me when you get it, and I'll try it, as I definitely have some time to focus on Java this weekend. | |
| [14:23] * robilad apologizes for missing the last meeting, on the road since yesterday until tomorrow | |
| [14:24] <persia> robilad: No worries. This close to release, there's not much we can do other than maybe get some plans together for jaunty, and publish some specs for discussion/approval. | |
| [14:24] <persia> Unless you have some RC issue you want to raise? | |
| [14:25] <robilad> nope | |
| [14:26] <robilad> I'm loving intrepid so far ;) | |
| [14:26] <persia> It's a bit of an improvement on the Java front :) | |
| [14:27] <persia> For the next meeting, I think we should try to get some specs together for the server stuff. | |
| [14:27] <persia> I know Koon pretty much finished the maven spec, and is seeking an approver. | |
| [14:27] <persia> Is there anything else we want to do other then get more stuff free, and maven? Surely something glassfish related. | |
| [14:36] <robilad> good question - i think the next important bit would be the osgi support (felix) | |
| [14:36] <persia> Right. We'll need a bit of a roadmap to give to developers at UDS (in December), including a list of targets, and some specs to get completed. | |
| [14:37] <persia> We'll want to have those drafted in the next 6 weeks or so, so if there's nothing RC outstanding for you, that's probably the best target. | |
| [14:59] <robilad> ok, thanks | |
| [15:01] <cfm> persia: Ah, that makes sense, thanks! I'm going with sun for now purely because of those dependencies. | |
| [15:02] <persia> cfm: Makes sense. Depending on your use, you may be happy with the intrepid upgrade in another month or so. | |
