Linux Jazz server and winxp RTC


Han Jie (10120) | asked Dec 18 '07, 1:48 a.m.
I would like to install Jazz server on the SuSe Linux.
And RTC on my laptop, which is on winxp.
Is there any problems?
Can I find any report for the performance somewhere?

Linux Server and Windows Client should work fine. What version of SuSe do
you plan to use?

FYI
It works perfectly with the RTC on WIN XP/ WIN Vista and the Jazz Server on Red Hat Linux ES 5.
Take care all!

Did you have to install anything special first to get the server potion
running on RHEL 5? I was going to try doing the same thing but didn't
know if I needed to install any specific library support first.

The setup docs mention some xorg* packages - but those are not shown as
available for RHEL 5 - so I am guessing the packaging changed from V4.

It runs fine under Ubuntu Server 7.10 installed into a VM - perfect for testing purpose! Just had to download the Jazz server and run the start script.

ok - I answered my own question - I was able to install the server
successfully under RHEL 5. My only problem was that I have SELinux
turned on so - in order to get the IBM JVM to run - I had to run the
following command to allow those modules to perform text relocation:

chcon -t textrel_shlib_t
/usr/jazz/server/linux/ibm-java2-i386-50/jre/bin/*.so

Once I did that - the Tomcat server was able to come up cleanly.

So far I have not done much other than add myself as a new user. Next
will install the client and proceed to set up a project, source.
Hopefully I won't have any other issues specific to RHEL 5.

As a follow up - I have played around with Jazz a bit this weekend -
from both a web client and the Eclipse client. This is using the Beta 2
code.

And the only thing that I have found so far is that the reporting does
not appear to work - I get null pointer exceptions when I try to run any
reports from the Web Gui - and I get no results displayed in the Eclipse
client - although I don't see the error detail in this client like I do
in the web client. I suspect the same errors are being triggered since
when I look at my server logs - the stack traces look similar.

I know that the docs refer to certain xorg libraries as being required -
but I can't find those as available to be installed with RHEL 5 as I
mentioned before. I suspect all of these libraries got reorganized going
from V4 to V5 and that is part of my problem.

I am having problems with charts on ubuntu 6.06 LTS. I get a NULL pointer exception when it tries to create charts in the Dashboard. I am running M6a. I noticed that when the server starts up there is a warning about a circular reference.

I have the server running on Fedora8. The only thing not working is the reports component. This has something to do with missing X11 libs:

19:45:54,120 ERROR com.ibm.team.reports - Reports requires the X11 libraries, which were not found. See the Server Setup Guide for details.
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: fontmanager (libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)

The Reports component requires that 32-bit X11 libraries are installed on the server. On Redhat Enterprise Linux, the required packages are xorg-x11-deprecated-libs, xorg-x11-libs and xorg-x11-Mesa-libGL.

I have not been able to fix this. The X11 libs are installed on my system, but I suspect they are not the exact version expected by the report component (or installed in a different location) ?

regards

Daan.
