Configure Tomcat in Ubuntu

Install Tomcat in source mode (not recommended)

Tomcat is a network service software developed by Apache Foundation to support JSP (Java Server Page.

sudo apt-get install tomcat6 

Wait a moment. Tomcat 6 will be automatically installed in the/usr/share/Tomcat6 directory.

Set the JAVA environment for Tomcat running

First, make sure that Sun's Java Development Toolkit has been installed. If not, refer to Java.

Start and Stop Tomcat

To start Tomcat, run

qii@Ubuntu:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat6 start * Starting Tomcat servlet engine tomcat6                                                

Open the browser and enter http: // localhost: 8080 in the address bar.

 

Tomcat is successfully installed.

To stop Tomcat, run

qii@ubuntu:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat6 stop    Stopping Tomcat servlet engine tomcat6                                                

Tomcat configuration file path

Tomcat home directory:/usr/share/tomcat6Tomcat base directory:/var/lib/tomcat6 or/etc/tomcat6

Set the Tomcat Administrator Account

Tomcat user account information is saved in the tomcat-users.xml file, run

sudo nano /var/lib/tomcat6/conf/tomcat-users.xml

Add a line before the </tomcat-users> label

<User username = "username" password = "password" roles = "admin, manager"/>

Save and close. Run tomcat again and enter the user name and password to log on to the Tomcat Management page.

Disadvantages

By default, Ubuntu divides Tomcat into two directories. When the Eclipse Server is configured later, it will drive people crazy. If no path is configured, Eclipse cannot identify the installed Tomcat. Solution:

Sudo ln-s/var/lib/tomcat6/conf/usr/share/tomcat6/conf
Sudo ln-s/etc/tomcat6/policy. d/03catalina. policy/usr/share/tomcat6/conf/catalina. policy
Sudo ln-s/var/log/tomcat6/usr/share/tomcat6/log
Sudo chmod-R 777/usr/share/tomcat6/conf

Download and install the latest Tomcat version

This method bypasses the Ubuntu Package Manager and downloads and uses the Tomcat software directly from the Apache Tomcat homepage. This method is convenient and quick to install the old version or new test version of Tomcat without affecting system stability, easy to use.

Download from the official tomcat page

http://tomcat.apache.org/download-70.cgi

Download the zipw.tar.gz package in Binary-> corecategory, decompress it locally, and rename the newly generated directory to tomcat for ease of use. Move this folder to a PATH /. Please refer to the preceding steps to set environment variables and ports! Run directly

PATH/tomcat/bin/./startup.sh

Tomcat immediately serves in the background. (Replace PATH with the appropriate PATH)

Tomcat started successfully
