Regarding sudo ln -s /var/lib/tomcat7/common/ /usr/share/tomcat7/common etc...
So the currently proposed solution is to create links in the CATALINA_HOME directory (i.e. the "singleton installation directory") pointing to some example CATALINA_BASE instance directory (i.e. the instance directory with the ROOT default hello-world servlet). This feels like a workaround. When this issue is resolved, having the symbolic linking go in the opposite direction (i.e. CATALINA_HOME has all required directories) feels more sensible to me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to tomcat7 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1232258 Title: tomcat7 installer fails to create symbolic links To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tomcat7/+bug/1232258/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
