Joe,
Yeah, I think we may have corresponded on this topic before.
Thanks for taking it up again.
So, from your message I assume that you've done this successfully?
Do you know if wotaskd and Monitor are newer than the versions in
5.2.4? Right now the install is in '/opt/Apple' as that's what the
Solaris installer recommended. I guess if I move things over to '/
Library' and '/System/Library' then those components will be updated
anyway... I'd also want to change my Xcode targets to make the uname
change that you recommend to the app launching script - certainly
don't want to do that by hand each time.
Have you noticed anything else regarding 5.3 on Linux? Any changes in
performance or stability? Am I crazy to even consider trying this?
Again, thanks for taking the time.
Hunter

Howdy,
We have a couple of apps that we have running on a Linux server (Red
Hat Enterprise 4) with mod_webobjects and wotaskd, running on 5.2.4.
This works pretty okay, though sometimes we have little problems with
wotaskd and Monitor, although those are not relevant to this
discussion. Anyway...
I'd like to migrate this server to 5.3.x but since there is no longer
a Solaris version of the WO installer, I'm not sure how to do it. In
the past we simply used the Solaris installer for Linux and it worked
just fine (with a few small caveats).
Has anyone accomplished the goal I am referring to? If so, can you
help shed some light on the process? I assume it involves some kind
of complicated file copy/move scenario?
I guess servlet-based deployment is an option but my understanding is
that it doesn't work with Project Wonder and that's something that we
use extensively. I've not tried to deploy this way due since I heard
that it doesn't work with Wonder - but maybe that's not correct?
Again, any tips are appreciated.
As I believe I wrote about (to you) before, the trick is the have the
same /Library and /System/Library paths, the same WO stuff there, and
change the applications's executable (for name.woa, the file named
"name" within the woa directory) to override the uname check and
ALWAYS have it return Darwin.
Thanks,
Hunter
