I've installed jdk-1_5_0_08-linux-i586.rpm and Tomcat. Working through some initial test install programs, I am finding that I can't seem to compile .java files into classes. For instance... javac -classpath /usr/local/tomcat/common/lib/servlet.jar HelloWorld.java as instructed fails with a gij: unrecognized option -- `-classpath' Try `gij --help' for more information. So then I notice there is no servlet.jar file, but instead a servlet-api.jar.. I change the command and it fails with the same problem. Trying the command without the -class and without the path fails with path errors. So it's sort of like this -classpath switch is either pathed wrong somewhere or is deprecated? This is on a CentOS 3 server. Anybody run into this? Do you have a solution? Thanks, John Hinton
