Public bug reported: Binary package hint: tomcat6
For whatever reason, the tomcat6 install in Lucid (and I think previous distros) is divided among /usr/share/tomcat6 and etc/tomcat6. However, the necessary symlink is not present to allow Tomcat to access conf files where it expects them to be, usr/share/tomcat6/conf. Also, the /logs folder doesn't exist, and thus will generate an error on startup unless the user creates this folder. If there is a compelling reason not to honor the file-structure that the Apache.org distribution of Tomcat uses, then at least the links and folders should be put in place to allow Tomcat to start successfully and function out of the box, without forcing the user to resort to using sudo privileges to fix it by hand. ** Affects: tomcat6 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- tomcat6 directory structure broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/577683 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to tomcat6 in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
