Dependencies, Versions and their Homepages

For your convenience the software ships in two packaging formats: Firebundle, and Firefish. Firebundle contains all dependencies necessary to run the software "out of the box" with zero installation and configuration effort (yes, really). A single download and untar step will get you operational. This gets you up and running in 5 minutes with the least amount of hassle. Many configuration options can be tweaked, but the included defaults will work out of the box, on any box.

Developers, admins and advanced users want to know the dependency set, and tinker with it in interesting ways. The following dependencies exist (left component depends on right component):

Chances are good that firefish will also run with earlier or later versions of the above components - just drop them in or symlink them or set the environment variables $JAVA_HOME, $CATALINA_HOME, $CATALINA_BASE, etc. Also see the util-find-xyz.sh scripts for how the non-intrusive autodetection system finds things on startup. We can not guarantee that such other versions will work, of course. We are interested in feedback as to what does or does not work for you.

Before you submit bug reports, please check if the bug is reproducible with the versions listed above, and let us know.
