draug...@gmail.com mailed me privately The solution he described is as follows;
——————— looks like i got the same "data directory not writable" error and look what i found: there is a file /lib/systemd/system/tomcat9.service and it has lines: ReadWritePaths=/etc/tomcat9/Catalina/ ReadWritePaths=/var/lib/tomcat9/webapps/ i just added new line with my path to it and it worked maybe it will help ya too sorry for my eng it isn't my native language and good luck (: ——————— I added the path to mt /data/ directory and all is working fine now.
