The ChiliSoft ASP for BlueQuartz contained the ChiliSoft v3.6.2 stuff, which 
wouldn't run on CentOS5 anyway, as it was compiled for a much older Linux.

It was (at least for a while) possible to install a later version of the "Sun 
ONE Active Server Pages" on CentOS from the command line.

That would then miss the GUI pages that the old PKG contained.

Since Oracle bought Sun the bloody software has been renamed again, so it's 
now called "Sun Java System Active Server Pages" and the latest version 
appears to be v4.0.3. 

The Unix install instructions for it can be found here:

I don't know if or how well that'll work on BlueQuartz. This ASP integration 
was already crap when ChiliSoft coded it, but since it passed to two other big 
companies who never have known how to treat inherited code well, things 
probably went for the worse.
