These files were very much out of date, so the RPM files have been removed. I've left the java2_1_4.conf and the patch files in case anyone is curious about the changes that I've made. The current versions of OpenNMS support SuSE out of the box.

These packages require that you have created an /etc/java configuration file for the Java 1.4 distribution that you install. See this java2_1_4.conf for a working example for Sun's 1.4.1_01 SDK. You can test that your configuration file is correct by running:
sh -c '. setJava --version 1.4 --devel; echo $JAVA_HOME'
SuSE's jakarta-tomcat package will only use SuSE-supplied packages, even if the /etc/java configuration files set another Java installation to have the highest priority. The opennms package here modifies the bin/catalina.sh startup script for jakarta-tomcat to request a Java SDK of at least version 1.4. This may affect other applications that you have using jakarta-tomcat.
If tomcat was running before you install OpenNMS, you will need to restart tomcat using "/etc/init.d/tomcat restart" as root.
Please also see the OpenNMS 1.1.0 Release Notes.
You must have the following SuSE packages installed before you try to install these packages:
You will also need to install Sun's Java 1.4 RPM package, which does not ship with SuSE. You can download it from java.sun.com.
This patch (opennms-1.1.0-1-dgregor.patch) contains the modifications needs to build properly on SuSE 8.1, with a few other fixes.
This is the command that I use to build:
JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1_01 sudo sh ./build.sh -Drpm.platform=linux-i386-suse-8.1 -Drpm.tomcatdir=/opt/jakarta/tomcat -Drpm.tomcatuser=wwwrun rpm
After you have downloaded the above files, execute "rpm -i" to install them:
rpm -i opennms-1.1.0-1.i386.rpm opennms-docs-1.1.0-1.i386.rpm opennms-webapp-1.1.0-1.i386.rpm
