Hi everyone,
I'm a newbie to centos and having trouble upgrading java's jdk1.4 to jdk1.5. I assume I have to get the jdk from jpackage, but I'm having trouble locating it, let alone finding any instructions on how to upgrade. Much appreciated if anyone can help. Thanks!
Can find them in Dag Wieers' repo...
j2re-1.4.2-11.2.el4.rf.i586.rpm mozilla-j2re-1.4.2-11.2.el4.rf.i586.rpm
Here are the config files:
[prs@wx1 ~]$ cat /etc/yum.repos.d/dag.repo [dag] name=Dag RPM Repository for Red Hat Enterprise Linux baseurl=http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el$releasever/en/$basearch/dag/ enabled=0 gpgcheck=1 [dag_i386] name=Dag RPM Repository for Red Hat Enterprise Linux baseurl=http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el$releasever/en/i386/dag/ enabled=0 gpgcheck=1
Change "enabled=0" to "enabled=1" if you don't want to have to use "--enablerepo=dag" on yum commands, and be sure to import the GPG key:
rpm --import http://dag.wieers.com/packages/RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt
Or for smart... [prs@wx1 ~]$ cat /etc/smart/channels/dag.channel ### URL: http://dag.wieers.com/apt/ [dag] name = RPMforge.net: Dag RPM Repository for (x86_64) baseurl = http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el4/en/x86_64/dag type = rpm-md priority = 10 [prs@wx1 ~]$ cat /etc/smart/channels/dag_i386.channel ### URL: http://dag.wieers.com/apt/ [dag_i386] name = RPMforge.net: Dag RPM Repository for (i386) baseurl = http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el4/en/i386/dag type = rpm-md priority = 10
The weirdness with the [dag_i386] stuff is to be able to find i386 packages on my x86_64 arch. On a 32-bit machine the 1st entries are sufficient.
My x86_64 repository used to be a merge of i386 and x86_64. Sadly Yum cannot handle this. (ie. it installs both archs) See Yum bugzilla for the report.
After a bunch of mails from confused Yum users I decided to keep them seperated.
Kind regards, -- dag wieers, dag@wieers.com, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- [all I want is a warm bed and a kind word and unlimited power]
