Public bug reported:
The tomcat8 SRU (LP: #1817567) for bionic introduces a systemd service
instead of init scripts.
It is documented in the NEWS file for the tomcat8 package, repeated
here:
The tomcat8 package now provides a proper systemd service file.
Here are the notable differences with the init.d script previously used
to start Tomcat:
* The service assumes that Tomcat runs as the tomcat8 user. The user and
group defined in /etc/default/tomcat8 are ignored. If you've configured
a different user you have to override the default service file. This is
done by creating a /etc/systemd/system/tomcat8.service.d/override.conf
file containing:
[Service]
User=<username>
Group=<groupname>
* authbind is no longer necessary to bind to privileged ports (< 1024)
* Tomcat log messages are now sent to journald and can be retrieved
with:
journalctl -t tomcat8
* The log entries in catalina.out are now timestamped.
* The /var/run/tomcat8.pid file is no longer created.
** Affects: tomcat8 (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
