Java and Tomcat support for Yellowfin
8 October, 2009
I just have question regarding Java and Tomcat support for Yellowfin. I am aware you support Java 5 and Tomcat 5.5, but was just wondering whether Java 6 and Tomcat 6 are also supported.
As we are looking at integrating Yellowfin into our Self Service product, we need to know what Java and Tomcat versions we can support.

Yellowfin does work fine with Java 6.
However we haven't tried it on Tomcat 6..
Tomcat 6 uses a newer version of the Servlet Specification so our pre-compiled JSPs may not work correctly on Tomcat 6.
You could probably test this by dropping the Yellowfin WAR file into Tomcat 6 to see how it goes.
(We only support Tomcat 5.5, but we can help out if the Yellowfin WAR file requires a few tweaks for it to work on Tomcat 6... we have a slightly modified build process for clients using Websphere)
We are currently uploading a VM with Yellowfin 4 beta installed..
I will let you know when this is available.. (It has about a hour to go).

Yellowfin 6.1 will ship with Tomcat 6.0.35.
The code will still run on Tomcat 5.5. Clients upgrading to Yellowfin 6.1 will not automatically be upgraded to Tomcat 6.

What version of Tomcat and JDK does 6.3 ship with?
