While using Fedora, I always used java straight from Sun. What is recommended for CentOS?? Getting jetty, java and other java apps working correctly has been a real chore. If I used nothing but RPMs for CEntOS, would I have a real working java install? I need some help on this one badly. Ric
Get it from Sun for now. I think Java 7 is the one that's supposed to be fully GPL, Java 6 still has some incompatible bits that Sun is re-writing(last I read).
You can get java alternatives like gcj with CentOS, though their usefulness is somewhat limited.
