Hm, that will not be sufficient. Once jsvc is fixed, Tomcat finally needs the following defined in java.security to start: policy.expandProperties=true policy.allowSystemProperty=true And java.security is also a conffile, so this is also available only after configuration. Not sure we have a workaround for that one.
-- Tomcat 6 fails to start during install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/288616 You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenJDK, which is subscribed to openjdk-6 in ubuntu.

This doesn't prevent the installation from succeeding and you can still run "sudo service tomcat6 start" to start it once it is installed. If a JRE is not completely configured by the time Tomcat is started, Tomcat will fail to start. This can happen in some installation scenarios as Tomcat 6 doesn't formally "pre-depend" on a JRE. For example, on a minimal system, the packages seem to be configured in that order (some lines removed for clarity): $ sudo apt-get install tomcat6 tomcat6-examples tomcat6-admin tomcat6-user Setting up default-jre-headless (1.6-30ubuntu3) ... Setting up openjdk-6-jre-lib (6b12-0ubuntu4) ... Setting up tomcat6 (6.0.18-0ubuntu3) ... * Starting Tomcat servlet engine tomcat6 ...fail! Setting up openjdk-6-jre-headless (6b12-0ubuntu4) ... However if you run: $ sudo apt-get install tomcat6 Setting up openjdk-6-jre-lib (6b12-0ubuntu4) ... Setting up default-jre-headless (1.6-30ubuntu3) ...
