Suggestion

Thanks for your great job. Your stacks helps so much to deploy apps…

I have just a suggestion to tomcat-stack… Apache HTTP is used in front of tomcat, but the stack doesn’t come with PHP support. In some situations we need to run PHP tools (like phpMyAdmin) and would be very nice having the support to PHP applications combined with support to Java webapps…

Thanks for your suggestion. We will add in our TODO list.

On the other hand, we’d rather vote for keeping the tomcat-stack as small as possible.
We need it on embedded machines with limited memory and CPU-horsepower, and we just need the pure Java+Tomcat stack, for we only use servlets (Catalina) and JSPs (Jasper). For that matter, also the Apache httpd webserver kinda redundant: Tomcat’s Coyote HTTP-connector is just fine.
So I’d rather have a smaller, PHP-less, tomcat-stack…

In addition, one useful thing would be to have stated, somewhere in the TomcatStack webpage ( http://bitnami.com/stack/tomcatstack ), what JRE version the stack comes with (e.g. tomcat 6.0.33 & JRE 1.6.0_26, tomcat 7.0.20 & JRE 7.0.0)

Thanks for your suggestion. You can check it at http://bitnami.com/files/stacks/tomcatstack/6.0… The latest version that we are shipping is JDK 1.6.0_22. Cheers.
