I tried to compile git 2.4.3 on Solaris 10. I used the following configuration:

$ ./configure --without-iconv

$ grep -i iconv config.status
ac_cs_config="'--without-iconv'"
 set X /bin/bash './configure' '--without-iconv'
$ac_configure_extra_args --no-create --no-recursion
OLD_ICONV=UnfortunatelyYes

But when I try to compile it, I get an error that libiconv is missing:

 LINK git-credential-store
Undefined first referenced
 symbol in file
libintl_gettext libgit.a(lockfile.o)
libiconv_close libgit.a(utf8.o)
libiconv_open libgit.a(utf8.o)
libintl_ngettext libgit.a(date.o)
libiconv libgit.a(utf8.o)
ld: fatal: symbol referencing errors. No output written to git-credential-store
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
gmake: *** [git-credential-store] Error 1

How can I work around this?

We need to install tomcat 7.0.68 or higher version on Sun Solaris 10. Can you let me know if there is any version compatibility matrix for Tomcat 7?

I'm in the middle of a hardware upgrade. The application expert has on our project work list "copy /opt/tomcat/* from old machine to new machine.

The old machine is a Sun V240, running Solaris 9 and the New machine is an Oracle (Sun) T4 server running Solaris 10. Tomcat version is Tomcat 6.

Can we do this? will it run? It seems to be a Java based product and it stands to reason that if the JDK is the same it would be fine. I'm worried about any C code compiled for Solaris 9. Why should we NOT do this ?

We have had issues with system resources, primarily RAM, maxing out and effectively overwhelming an Apache web server.
We have noticed that some of the default TCP time settings on Solaris 10 seem really high. Is there any sort of standard TCP settings that have been adopted, or suggested, for a Solaris 10 system running Apache 2.2?Can anyone share what they have done?

For weeks I have been running Windows 10 tech preview and EVERYTHING loads and runs great ... except maybe Git. When I click on the installer/loader file in explorer it causes explorer to crash. Anyone out the a Windows 10 insider, or can anyone comment on ...
