RE: multiple instances of tomcat
I figured out. Just replying so I don't waste anyone's time.
The problem in my case was after upgrading to Fedora 21, I needed to replace
/etc/tomcat/tomcat.conf with /etc/tomcat/tomcat.conf.rpmnew
Doh! :)

Subject: multiple instances of tomcat
Date: Sat, 23 May 2015 14:49:15 +
Hi,
First just to say I'm running F21.
I found a post on setting up multiple tomcat instances at
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/scm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20130708/1055381.html
which states:
In the new world, if you need an instance, you'll create a directory
/var/lib/tomcats/name, create {conf temp work webapps} in it, and then
systemctl enable tomcat at name.service.
So I created /var/lib/tomcats/instance1, /var/lib/tomcats/instance2 and
/var/lib/tomcats/instance3 (and their contents)
I then ran:
[root@laptop system]# systemctl enable tomcat@instance1.service
Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants
/tomcat@instance1.service to /usr/lib/systemd/system/tomcat@.service.
[root@laptop system]# systemctl enable tomcat@instance2.service
Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants
/tomcat@instance2.service to /usr/lib/systemd/system/tomcat@.service.
[root@laptop system]# systemctl enable tomcat@instance3.service
Created symlink from
/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/tomcat@instance3.service to
/usr/lib/systemd/system/tomcat@.service.
And created these sysconfig files, changing the CATALINA_BASE to match the
corresponding directory under /var/lib/tomcats:
[root@laptop system]# ls -l /etc/sysconfig/*tomcat*
-rw-rw-r--. 1 root tomcat 490 Feb 14 21:29 /etc/sysconfig/tomcat
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root194 May 23 14:58 /etc/sysconfig/tomcat@instance1
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root194 May 23 14:59 /etc/sysconfig/tomcat@instance2
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root194 May 23 15:00 /etc/sysconfig/tomcat@instance3
Unfortunately everytime I try to start one of these instances, for example, if
I run
systemctl start tomcat@instance2
it just starts up the system installed tomcat with CATALINA_BASE
/usr/share/tomcat.
Please could you tell me if I am doing anything obviously wrong here? :)
Thanks for any help.
Edward
P.S. Just a note to add that I did get this working but only after adding the
following files. The discussion in the attached link seemed to indicate that I
shouldn't need to do this.

I was trying to install fedora with a usb created from unetbootin. The usb created by liveusb-creator booted fine though and now I can see Windows in the grub menu. Oddly (and not a major issue), I can only boot Windows if secure mode is off.

Problems booting Fedora 19 with UEFI
Hi, I recently purchased a Dell Inspiron 5721 which came with Windows 8. I would like to dual boot this with Fedora but am having problems running the Fedora Install. I have Fedora-19-x86_64-DVD.iso on usb, and whenever I boot with UEFI (secure on or off), the boot process hangs at the line, Reached target Basic System: [ 12.650116] localhost systemd[1]: Started Dispatch Password Requests to Console Directory Watch.

[ 12.651829] localhost systemd[1]: Reached target Basic System. And then bails out after a few minutes and starts up the Dracut Emergency Shell: [ 35.729286] localhost multipathd[108]: sdc: add path (uevent) [ 35.915042] localhost multipathd[108]: sdc: update path write_protect to '0' (uevent) [ 36.008982] localhost multipathd[108]: sdc: update path write_protect to '1' (uevent) [ 197.571596] localhost dracut-initqueue[395]: Warning: Could not boot.
