Bug#787220: 404 error with websocket/websocket jars not installed

[debian-bugs]

Package: tomcat7
Version: 7.0.56-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Running a very simple websocket endpoint fails with a 404 (not found)
error because the required websocket jars (tomcat-websocket.jar and
websocket-api.jar) are not installed.

I think the jars are not installed because the tomcat7 build scripts
need a java7 compiler to build them (and don't assume that there is one
installed). Adding the line

java.7.home=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64

to build.properties (in the root of the unpacked tomcat7 source) will
make the build scripts build the required jars. Once the jars have been
built, copying them to /usr/share/tomcat7/lib (and making no other
changes) fixes the problem.

I'd guess a "tomcat7-websocket" package (with a java7 dependency) with
the required jars (and symlinks etc) would solve the problem?

Thanks,
   Osric Wilkinson
