The command "dpkg -s tomcat7" gives me version 7.0.28. Which may or may not be correct, since third-party distributions often cherry-pick changes to include, along with generally corrupting the standard Tomcat file layout. I strongly recommend that you deinstall the Debian package and use a current, real Tomcat from tomcat.apache.org. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
