--- Begin Message ---Package: tomcat5.5-webapps Version: 5.5.26-5 Severity: normal I recently did a aptitude reinstall tomcat5.5 tomcat5.5-admin tomcat5.5-webapps after some mistake I did moving tomcat files around. Then I observed that pointing to http://localhost:tomcat-port yields a blank page. Only going to the manager web application works, not the example webapps. Indeed, these are installed into /usr/share/tomcat5.5-webapps where the webapp root folder is /etc/tomcat5.5/Catalina/localhost (AFAIU). Only after ln -s /usr/share/tomcat5.5-webapps/*.xml /etc/tomcat5.5/Catalina/localhost/ did the example web applications become reachable. I am sorry for this unuseful bug report if this is due to some mistake but I guess that a reinstall should render the package usable again. If not a mistake by me, this bug severity could maybe even be "grave" as the webapps are not useable until the user modifies something to the installation... Also, the front webapp ("ROOT") accessed on http://localhost:tomcat-port says that "the default Tomcat home page... can be found on the local filesystem at: $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT/index.jsp", which is not correct according to where debian installs it. As the goal of this page seems to help new tomcat users, this can be a very misleading information! -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.25-2-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_BE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_BE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages tomcat5.5-webapps depends on: ii tomcat5.5 5.5.26-5 Servlet and JSP engine tomcat5.5-webapps recommends no packages. tomcat5.5-webapps suggests no packages. -- no debconf information

--- Begin Message ---Version: 5.5.26-5 Hello, Some (long) time ago you filed this bug against tomcat5.5 or a related package. In the meantime the tomcat5.5 package has been renamed and this bug was "lost". Since the bug is already quite old now it is being closed. If the issue you encountered is still present in recent tomcat packages (as released with Debian 7.0 wheezy for example) the maintainer(s) would very much appreciate a fresh report using: reportbug <package> You should also mention the number of this bug if you think it contains valuable information. Please note that further information sent to this bug is likely to remain unread, because the bug is currently not assigned to any existing package. Thank you for for trying to improve Debian by reporting bugs. Kind regards, Andrei (with no relation to tomcat maintenance)
