2. Create rpm from src.rpm, and Install Postgres:

rpm --rebuild postgres-7.0.3-1suse7.src.rpm
cd /usr/src/packages/RPMS/i386/
rpm -U pg_lib-7.0.3-1suse7.i386.rpm
rpm -hivU postgres-7.0.3-1suse7.i386.rpm

---------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Install IBM or Sun Java2 SDK version 1.3 or higher
(I downloaded the gziped source version)

chmod 755 j2sdk-1_3_0_01-linux.bin
cp j2sdk-1_3_0_01-linux.bin /usr/local/
cd /usr/local/
./j2sdk-1_3_0_01-linux.bin
Agree to their version of opnscource licencing.
./j2sdk-1_3_0_01-linux.bin

------------------------------------
4. Set path to java, and install packages that need Java

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/jdk1.3.0_01/bin
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/jdk1.3.0_01/

rpm -i java-cup-10j-7onms.noarch.rpm
rpm -i java-getopt-1.0.8-4onms.noarch.rpm
rpm -i jaf-1.0.1-2onms.noarch.rpm
rpm -i javamail-1.2-2onms.noarch.rpm
rpm -i java-soap-2.0.20001214-6onms.noarch.rpm
rpm -i jlex-1.2.5-5onms.noarch.rpm
rpm -i jsdt-2.0-5onms.noarch.rpm

rpm -i tomcat-3.2.1-4onms.noarch.rpm
vi /etc/rc.d/init.d/tomcat
  export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/jdk1.3.0_01/bin
  export JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/jdk1.3.0_01/

rpm -i xerces-j-1.2.3-2onms.noarch.rpm
rpm -i xalan-j-1.2.2-2onms.noarch.rpm
 

------------------------------------------------------
5. Install the thing we were after in the first palce

rpm -i opennms-0.4.1-3.i386.rpm
rpm -i opennms-doc-0.4.1-3.i386.rpm
vi /etc/rc.d/opennms
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/jdk1.3.0_01/bin
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/jdk1.3.0_01/
BB_HOME=/opt/OpenNMS
------------------------------------------------------
