TOMCAT7 installation configuration for Ubuntu

First, environmental description:

Operating system: Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS

tomcat:apache-tomcat-7.0.52

Second, download

: http://tomcat.apache.org/

The download here is apache-tomcat-7.0.52.tar.gz.

Three, installation configuration

I downloaded this download folder in the current user after it is completed. Go to download folder:

~$ cd ~/Download
Unzip the downloaded compressed package:

~$ TAR-ZXVF apache-tomcat-7.0.52.tar.gz
To rename an extract file:

~$ MV apache-tomcat-7.0.52 TOMCAT7
To move the Tomcat7 folder to/usr/local/:

~$ sudo mv tomcat7/usr/local/
Set Environment variables:

~$ sudo gedit/etc/profile
At the bottom, add:

#set Tomcat Environment
Catalina_home=/usr/local/tomcat7
Export Catalina_home
Save exit.

Go to the Tomcat7 folder:

~$ CD/USR/LOCAL/TOMCAT7
Edit catalina.sh File:

~$ sudo gedit bin/catalina.sh
Add at the end of the document:

Catalina_home=/usr/local/tomcat7
Java_home=/usr/local/java/jdk1.7.0_25
which Java_home is the installed JDK path, and Catalina_home is the installation path for Tomcat.

To start Tomcat:

~$ sudo./bin/startup.sh
If the following is displayed without any exceptions, the startup succeeds:

Using catalina_base:/USR/LOCAL/TOMCAT7
Using Catalina_home:/USR/LOCAL/TOMCAT7
Using Catalina_tmpdir:/usr/local/tomcat7/temp
Using Jre_home:/usr/local/java/jdk1.7.0_25
Using CLASSPATH:/usr/local/tomcat7/bin/bootstrap.jar:/usr/local/tomcat7/bin/tomcat-juli.jar
Tomcat started.
Stop Tomcat:

~$ sudo./bin/shutdown.sh
Iv. Installation of Tomcat services

To install the Tomcat service:

~$ sudo cp bin/catalina.sh/etc/init.d/tomcat
View Services:

~$ sudo service tomcat status
Lists a bunch of operation options, which means that the service is installed properly.

To start Tomcat through a service:

~$ sudo service tomcat start
Browser Access http://localhost:8080/tests whether the installation configuration was successful.
