Install Sun Java Web System on Fedora / Registering in Netbeans

Question

Hi,
I am trying to install Sun Java System Webserver onto Fedora 64 bit - I am not bothered about running a server locally, I have a development server for testing before deployment - however, I need to get a working install to let Netbeans recognise it as a valid target server. As far as I am aware, all Netbeans needs when deploying to a remote server is some libraries associated with that J2EE server. So first of all I tried just pulling the tree of an installed and working server off another box - however, Netbeans won't play ball.
When trying to install the server on Fedora I get an error regarding
/sun/webserver7/lib/libfreebl3.so: version `NSSRAWASH_3.12.3' not found
Any ideas, if not, any ideas how to 'trick' Netbeans into thinking the server is installed?
Regards,
Tom

Hi,
Thanks for your replies, so far I have managed to persuade netbeans to recognise the broken install by adding this block to ~/.netbeans/6.5/config/J2EE/InstalledSerers/.nbattrs
<fileobject name="instance">
<attr name="LocalServer" stringvalue="true"/>
<attr name="SSLAdminPort" stringvalue="true"/>
<attr name="configName" stringvalue="tom-desktop"/>
<attr name="displayName" stringvalue="Sun Java System Web Server 7.0"/>
<attr name="password" stringvalue="xxxxxxxx"/>
<attr name="registeredWithoutUI" stringvalue="false"/>
<attr name="url" stringvalue="[/home/twerner/webserver7]deployer:Sun:WebServer70::localhost:8989"/>
<attr name="username" stringvalue="admin"/>
</fileobject>However, it would be good to get the server actually working...
I am running Fedora 11 - 64 Bit (I like to live dangerously :-))
I am attempting to do the install using the seperate Web server installer on its own, downloaded direct from Sun's site (v7u5).
Here is the log file : [http://pastebin.com/f716536d6]
Installed nss packages:
nss.i586 3.12.3-4.fc11 @fedora
nss.x86_64 3.12.3-4.fc11 installed

nss-softokn-freebl.x86_64 3.12.3-4.fc11 installed
nss_ldap.x86_64 264-2.fc11 installed
Hopefully some of this info is useful,
Many thanks for your help,
Tom
