Dear Markus, Sorry to reply again.

There is an rm when you "stop" tomcat, and another in the "start"; so maybe there are two in restart. No matter: I watch (with inotify), keep watch and keep watching, and put in a symlink to /etc soon as I can, anytime and every time I can. So I will create a symlink after the rm during stop, a wasted thing, present between your stop and start; then during start you rm, I create the symlink, you do the useless "mkdir -p" and you chown; I win. For your test, you took the rm out of your script: you should see /etc being chowned to tomcat8. Please confirm.
