Hey folks!
The issue :
~~~~~~~
I just installed 'apache-tomcat-10.0.27.tar.gz' in my Debian 11 (stable)
box, running OpenjDK 17.0.4, this was done following the recommendation
on 'How to Install Apache Tomcat on Debian 11 (Step by Step)
<https://www.linuxtechi.com/how-to-install-apache-tomcat-on-debian/> '.
With the exception of the java installation, I followed the steps up to
section 8 where I get this error :
*/sudo systemctl restart tomcat/**/
/**/Job for tomcat.service failed because the control process exited
with error code./**/
/**/See "systemctl status tomcat.service" and "journalctl -xe" for
details./*
I followed the recommendation of the error message and I get this :
systemctl status tomcat.service
● tomcat.service - Tomcat webs servlet container
Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/tomcat.service; *enabled*;
vendor preset>
Active: activating (auto-restart) (Result: exit-code) since Fri
2022-11-25>
Process: 86949 ExecStart=/opt/tomcat/bin/startup.sh (code=exited,
status=0/>
Process: 86960 ExecStop=/opt/tomcat/bin/shutdown.sh (code=exited,
status=1/>
CPU: 38ms
My Imperfect Solution
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If from the command prompt or a shell script, I run this code sudo
'/opt/tomcat/bin/catalina.sh run', Tomcat runs nicely, but it grabs the
Terminal, if I close the Terminal, Tomcat just stops working. Obviously
not a perfect solution.
I am a newcomer to the Linux world, but in Windows I had the same issue,
so I wonder if this is a potential bug.
Please help me resolve this issue or let me know how to report this bug.
(This would be my first contribution to the team, so I am rightfully
exited).
Thanks in advance.
