severity 418962 minor
thanks
Please excuse the initial severity of this bug. I have discovered that
the reason the tomcat install hosed my CATALINA_BASE was due to a user
(who used to have sudo permissions and now has a very nasty MOTD) who
seemed to be hitting bug 402603 and trying everything to get tomcat started.
I've tracked dome some errant modifications (involving symlinking
between /var/lib/tomcat5.5 and my CATALINA_BASE /srv/tomcat and I have
reinstalled tomcat with success.
Please accept my apology for that stupid user error.
The issue with symlinks still stands though, albeit a very minor issue now.
Also, I am curious as to whether the changes made to /var/lib/tomcat
should in fact be made to CATALINA_BASE or whether we should recommend
that certain parts of CATALINA_BASE be pointed at their /var/lib/tomcat
equivalents? after fixing the symlink error above, I am concerned that
security patches and or updates might not make it to my system because
of my choice to host the server under the /srv/ mount.
Regards,
--Mike
