Host where the staff takes pride in making customers happy
A while back, Dizzy and I decided to split a virtual private server (running Debian) from RimuHosting. While setting up yet another domain just now, I realized that I've forgotten to post about them, so herewith I correct the oversight. In short, they are great! Rock solid hosting, timely and knowledgeable service, datacenters around the Anglosphere, and great prices made even better by discounts for folks who contribute to open-source projects. My only complaint is you can't IM them via Jabber, only AIM, MSN, and Yahoo (c'mon guys, get with open source and open standards!). If you are a looking for a hosting service, I cannot recommend RimuHosting highly enough. Kudos, Rimu!
Apache Portable Runtime (APR) and Tomcat
Per http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/apr.html Tomcat can use the Apache Portable Runtime to provide superior scalability, performance, and better integration with native server technologies.
Installing the JNI wrappers for APR used by Tomcat (libtcnative)
On CentOS5, http://www.jroller.com/agileanswers/entry/configuring_apr_for_tomcat is a popular guide for installing the Apache Tomcat Native Library.
apt-get -y install apr-devel openssl-devel
wget http://apache.seekmeup.com/tomcat/tomcat-connectors/native/1.1.16/source/tomcat-native-1.1.16-src.tar.gz
rpm -ql apr-devel
tar -zxvf tomcat-native*
cd tomcat-native*/jni/native
./configure --with-apr=/usr/bin/apr-1-config
make
make install
ln -s /usr/local/apr/lib/libtcnative-1.so.0.1.16 /usr/lib/libtcnative-1.so
service tomcat restart
less /usr/local/tomcat/logs/catalina.out
