#4 Re: Installation » Ollama and DeepSeek » 2025-02-17 18:10:43

thanks ruenoak,

If I'm not mistaken I need to download the gpt4all-installer-linux.run file on Devuan 5 and launch it ?

I should be able to test it in a  devuan 5 virtual server on kvm, I should have at least 32 cores and 64GB of ram available, but without GPU.

Hi boughtonp
as you rightly suggested, the thing is very simple, I solved it positively with 2 steps:
1. copying the /etc/init.d/tomcat9 script to /etc/init.d/tomcat10 and then changing the tomcat9 string to tomcat10
2. copying two other scripts from /usr/libexec/tomcat9 to /usr/libexec/tomcat10: sysv-getjre.sh and sysv-start.sh and always rename tomcat9 to tomcat10
and everything works

Thank boughtonp  for your observation and encouragement,
in fact, it is not impossible, it takes a little patience and a little time to fine-tune the script.

For the moment I'm using tomcat8 and tomcat9 on the production servers (all Devuan of course) that I'm following, but sooner or later I'll have to switch to tomcat10 and with a bit of patience I'll follow the path you showed me.

#10 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] tomcat10 on daedalus » 2024-02-24 18:34:24

Thank fsmithred for a rapid response.

I had already seen that package already mentioned here somewhere, the tomcat start script is very complex and adapting the tomcat9 one is not easy at least for me who has been using tomcat out-of the box on Devuan for years.
I also wrote to the Debian package maintaner, let's see if he replies.

Hi to all

I have installed tomcat10 package https://pkginfo.devuan.org/cgi-bin/pack … -1+deb12u1
on daedalus and it seems  that is missing /etc/init.d/tomcat10  suitalble for start the programa liike in other version
but it is present the file /lib/systemd/system/tomcat10.service  that on daedalus is useless

Has anyone already solved the question or am I doing something wrong?

Thank you

Hi Head_on_a_Stick

i have tested sysd2v to convert tomcat9.service and do not function, It create fake script with same mistake
I am not so expert on shell script to debug or update the script

Do you have another idea ?

Thanks
Alberto

#23 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] tomcat9 on Beowulf » 2020-01-09 19:21:44

Thank you,

I will try the conversion tools  sysd2v in case it works as I can make the script available to all of Devunaners

#24 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] tomcat9 on Beowulf » 2020-01-07 16:48:59

I mean this package (from Debian https://packages.debian.org/en/bullseye/tomcat9)
----
Package: tomcat9 (9.0.27-1)

Apache Tomcat 9 - Servlet and JSP engine

Apache Tomcat implements the Java Servlet and the JavaServer Pages (JSP) specifications from Oracle, and provides a "pure Java" HTTP web server environment for Java code to run.

This package contains only the startup scripts for the system-wide daemon. No documentation or web applications are included here, please install the tomcat9-docs and tomcat9-examples packages if you want them. Install tomcat9-user instead of this package if you don't want Tomcat to start as a service
------
I not able to create the startup scripts, can you help or where I can get information on how to do it ?

Thanks
Alsen
