Hi all,



I'd like to know if there's some restriction regarding FDS
working over Tomcat.

Can persistent connections been stablished?

Is there some other problem?

thanks

Hi--



The only issue I've found is that, in order to use the data
management features of Flex you need to install JavaTransaction
support in Tomcat. This article has more info:

An abbreviated version:



Download the latest JOTM jars (Note: you may have to add
".gz" to the downloaded file for it to open properly in winzip,
i.e. rename jotm-2.0.10.tar to jotm-2.0.10.tar.gz)

Place the following jars from the JOTM dowload in your
$TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib/ directory so that both Tomcat and your web
application will see them:

* commons-cli-1.0.jar

* connector-1_5.jar

* howl.jar

* jotm.jar

* jotm_jrmp_stubs.jar

* jta-spec1_0_1.jar

* jts1_0.jar

* objectweb-datasource.jar

* ow_carol.jar

* xapool.jar



Edit your context.xml file in $TOMCAT_HOME\conf and add the
following text:



<Transaction
factory="org.objectweb.jotm.UserTransactionFactory"
jotm.timeout="60"/>



That's it. Just restart your Tomcat and you should be able to
run the samples with the FDS download.

Hi.. thanks for answering!

I got to install it :)

I was afraid protocols like RTMP wouldn't work on
Tomcat
