Subject: [os2genau] IBM Feature Installer

Hi,
I've successfully installed IBM Web Browser & Java 1.30.

However, I had to install Java 1.30 using Netscape 4.61 as Feature
Installer was only configured to work there.

How do I configure Feature Installer to work with IBM Web Browser?

That's what Big Blue wants us to believe of course. But actually, you just can copy or
xcopy or zip and unzip over from an already installed system; + just add the pair of
appropriate entries in the config.sys manually.

I happen to be using Win2000 at the moment (for work), so I tried
Netscape 6.01 (I don't have a Java plugin for Mozilla in Windows).  The
banks compatibility test doesn't even detect Java.  As Java does work
(or at lease it did on java.sun dot com 30 seconds later), they must be
looking for a different version.  So, I'm guessing that they are
looking for a 1.1 version.

>2)
>DTOC v4

It won't work.  It only works for Java 1.1.8.  Hence, it won't work
with the Mozilla based browsers.  This is particularly annoying, as to
use it under Win2000, I have to use Internet Explorer.  And, if I
remember rightly, the readme for DTOC v5 states Java 1.1.8.  So, the
chances of v4 working with Java 1.3, is very small.  This is about the
only reason I fire up NS4.61.

Thanks David,

Figured as much, I (wisely), didn't uninstall NS4.61, which judging by
the responses I've had, is A Good Thing, since 2/3 of the uses for my
browser don't work with the IBM Web-Browser or Java 1.3.

I installed the IBM-Browser as I have to use a system that only works
with NS 6 code:- & since IBM Web-Browser is based on the Mozilla code,
which is based on NS 6.1 code, it works!

This all bringing back bad memories of lack of computer standardization
just being a PITA for users.

Your files are not compatible with mine, unable to import into this or
that, your floppy doesn't read in mine, unable to format HDD on new
system, incompatible modem transfer protocol, blah, blah...

Thanks Kris,
So, Java 1.3 is no problems to migrate from an existing install, but
does Feature Installer work in the IBM Browser?

It looks like Greg is saying it doesn't, & since you need FI to install
Java 1.3, you *must* use NS 4.61 to initially install JAVA 1.3.

I can agree with this.  I'm tempted to disable Java in Mozilla, as
there are few places that its worth it, plenty of places it doesn't
work and a few places that cause big problems.  Luckily this category
is getting smaller as Mozilla gets better.

Not quite the right order.  It's closer to: NS6.1 is based on Mozilla
code.  IBM Web-Browser is based on Mozilla code at the same level as
NS6.1.  Of course it's not as simple as that, as both IBM and, I
assume, Netscape have added their own proprietary code to the browser
that haven't gone back into the Mozilla tree.  Or, in the case of bug
fixes, have gone back into a much later version of Mozilla than they
are based on.

Hi all,
From what I have seen from the FI / Netscape installation farce
the only reason any browser is used is for execution of a load of
Javascript.

If the Javascript can be unraveled you may be able to manually do the
installation.
Good luck.

Bye the way, whoever at IBM decided a web browser was an intelligent way to
install
software should be rewarded with a job at MS, he has their mentallity
already.

Ahh ... but you're missing 1 important point.  See how many different
ways we can install applications in OS/2.  Wouldn't want to get bored
with a std installer. (tongue in cheek)

Lets hope WarpIn is taken up by all OS/2 developers.

Hi Brian,
I'm assuming you haven't enable local security?
This is a right PITA if you have & really need to keep your wits about
you.

Are you using Fault Tolerance with WS4eB?
This is setup with FTSETUP.EXE.

I've got to test this myself B4 Friday.

Hi Daryl,
When I installed it I did not install fault tolerance, quotas
or any other extras, just the basic IFS so as to gain the
large cache capability.
I have had a brief purusal of the Network Admin Tasks INF file
but its not easy to sift the gems of knowledge required.
I only want the minimum required to do the disk mirroring thing.

Hi Brian,
The Fault Tolerance option is what is required for software RAID 1.
You will need to install this.

The FI thing appears to be a major hurdle. That's why I took the easy way: copied the
entire 1.3 tree from a fellow member of our OS/2 user group.
As a second precaution you have to be at the latest MPTN fix, btw.

To sum up, what I did was:

- being at level FP9
- applied the latest mptn fix by copying the about 16 *dll to the appropriate directory
- copied over the 1.3 tree
- copied npjava.dll to ns461 and npoji6.dll to the Mozilla appropriate directories.

- edited manually the config.sys:


> REM java
> SET CLASSPATH=E:\JAVA11\LIB\SECMA.JAR;E:\JAVA11\LIB\CLASSES.ZIP;.\.;E:\JAVA11\ICATJAVA\DAEMON\JAVAPROB.ZIP;E:\TCPIP\java;

> REM SET LIB=E:\JAVA11\LIB;
> SET JAVA_AUDIO_RATE=8
> SET JAVA_AUDIO_VOLUME=40
> SET java_high_mem=1
>

You have to take care java13 is at the very end of each path, otherwise you'll end in
troubles.

You can get the  latest 1.3 upgrade here:

http://www.taartenbakkerij dot com/bestanden/java13.zip

Maybe it's enough to do the job. Dunno, you'll have to sort that out by yourself I'm
afraid.

You'll find a doc in html format and the latest (I think) upgrade here:


http://www.taartenbakkerij dot com/bestanden/hpfsmax.exe

(self extracting archive)


And typing "help hpfs386" and "help acl" (without quotes) at a command prompt does give you some
additional information too.

Thanks Kris,

Err, what MPTS are you running?
I get:
inetver
Version numbers of TCP/IP protocol drivers:
   SOCKETS.SYS: 6.2004
   AFOS2.SYS:   6.2000
   AFINET.SYS:  6.2013

This is essentially WR08621 aka TCP/IP 4.21?
I'm thinking I should go up to TCP/IP 4.3?

I also noticed you have classpath, lib, I do not as I am running the
runtime.
Is classpath, lib required if running the runtime?

What do:
npjava.dll
npoji6.dll

Do for me?
They are something for Java support in the respective browsers?
I don't have npjava.dll on my system, but I do have:
f:\os2web\plugins\npoj16.dll

Keep in mind, as I told already, I never had installed the things the IBM way. I just
unzipped the "upgrade" files to a temp directory, and from there on copied to the
appropriate directory. Just a few dir *.dll /s and you should know what to do.

classpath is a java11 thing, an unkbown "feature" by java13. Java13 works mainly by
means of plugins and hardcoded paths. That's why you don't have much other choice than
to install \java13 into the root of the boot.

Sure the "1" isn't an "i" (waaai)?

You can point the cache to a RamFS station, which is a MAJOR relief. You need the
latest nighty 098 however. The official 098 doens't support this feature yet.

Also don't forget to replace nspr4.dll by the fixed one in bsd_nspr.zip .

In reverse order:

- Warpzilla is the name give to the OS/2 port of Mozilla.
- There are probably lots of bugs in Mozilla, but a lot less than in
IBM Browser.
- Crash or hang less often :)

The explanation to this is that the IBM Browser and Warpzilla come from
the same source tree and are being developed/ported by the same people.
 But, they are at different versions.  The IBM Browser is at either
0.9.4.1 or 0.9.6.  As I understand it, IBM is releasing versions to
match with Netscape.  So it should be about the same as Netscape 6.2. 
Same features, same bugs :)

Warpzilla is taken from the current source tree of Mozilla.  0.9.8 is
the latest milestone release.  Warpzilla 0.9.8 was released within 48
hours of the Windows and Linux versions.  And everyday there are two
builds with from the latest source if you want to try them.  I'm
running a nightly build from 27/2.   And I can't fault it.  

As to what's in Warpzilla that isn't in the current IBM Browser, the
obvious things that I can think of are:
- Tabbed browsing
- The enable java script option has been divided into a few options, so
you can keep Javascript on, but do things like stopping a page from
opening other windows (ie. no popups!) or changing the status bar text.
 
- less bugs, or did I say that before :)
