Thanks Josh.

Perhaps I'll just install Netbeans in my existing Ubuntu tomorrow and see
how that goes.

 This is the folder to which $CATALINA_HOME is set. What's going wrong?

Yeah, I suppose its time I upgraded to the next LTS for Ubuntu as well.

Hi Owen,

As mentioned by Geertjan, if you install NetBeans 11 then it should work.
Once installed, open the "Services" tab, then right-click on "Servers" and
choose "Add Server".  One of the available server options is "Apache Tomcat
or TomEE".

Thanks

I'd recommend to use Apache NetBeans 11, no need to install any plugins for
what you describe.

I've installed version 8.5.32 of Tomcat, and I have also installed the
plugins as instructed for Netbeans 8.2. I'm trying to configure the server
in Netbeans by right clicking Servers from the services tab, choosing Add
Server, entering "/opt/tomcat/apache-tomcat-8.5.32" for the server
location, but Netbeans tells me that "The specified Server Location
(Catalina Home) folder is not valid.

This is the folder to which $CATALINA_HOME is set. What's going wrong?
