didn't work exactly for me on x86_64

I had to use: $ (echo config gpgcheck 0; echo localinstall java-1.5.0-sun*.rpm; echo run) > yum-cmd (as root) #yum shell yum-cmd

to resolve some dependancies (libXp.x86_64 0:1.0.0-8 unixODBC-devel.x86_64 0:2.2.11-7.1 ) that failed to get resolved using the centos howto's directions of:

Install the RPMs as user root:

su - cd /home/<username>/rpmbuild/RPMS/i586 rpm -Uvh java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0.11-1jpp.i586.rpm rpm -Uvh java-1.5.0-sun-alsa-1.5.0.11-1jpp.i586.rpm rpm -Uvh java-1.5.0-sun-plugin-1.5.0.11-1jpp.i586.rpm

Were you able to make the version of tomcat included with Centos5 run after install Sun java?
