jdk and other issues
i'm trying to create a web log for a non-profit to use in international communications.
in speaking to his isp, we found the following questions?:
- they use jdk v 1.17 which came with apache v2.0 this apparently requires jdk v1.3.
will this work with jdk v1.17 at all? they have no immediate plans to upgrade.
-
they do not run tomcat. what functionality is lost, if any? is it really required?
-
they run a single java virtual machine. is that a problem? each user has their own config files.
They are running Red Hat 5.4 and 6.2 with a modified kernel (for security).
answers asap is most appreciated. time is a major consideration here.
thank you so much!

Hello, sorry for the late response.
1. Helma requires Java 1.2 or later. 1.1.x will not work.
2. Helma runs with any servlet engine.
3. A single Java virtual machine for everybody or just for Helma/Antville? Helma only requires one virtual machine, but it may be difficult to configure if this virtual machine is shared with others. That's not because it's not possible, but because most of the documentation we have assumes that one has full control over the server.
