I'm trying to install on RedHat 7.0
I've followed all the instructions and Tomcat starts, but when I try and open the welcome.htm page the browser just sits there saying "initializing" forever. JAVA_HOME is correct.
Anybody got any ideas.

1. Did you try restarting the server and try again, and/or browsing straight to one of the examples, for example the Animation one? I think you would browse to:

http://localhost:8080/lps-dr/examples/animation.lzx

2. What browser are you using? Is it the one installed on the Linux box? Have you tried using a different browser (hitting the Linux box from a different machine perhaps)?

It may also be that certain
X libraries aren't installed
on the server.

Can you check out logs in

$TOMCAT_HOME/work/Standalone/localhost/lps/LPS/logs

and

$TOMCAT_HOME/logs

and see if anything else there comes up?

It turned out that the version of netscape was so old that it didn't have flash. When I tried /examples/animation.lzx I got an error message, "needs at least flash 5"
I installed netscape 7 and things work now. the "welcome.html" file should probably be set up to give the same error message instead of running endlessly, if possible.
