I need some help troubleshooting my attempt to get 1.4.0 running (for use on my local network). I am working with a clean installation of Ubuntu 21.10, and have been following the steps in https://computingforgeeks.com/install-and-use-guacamole-on-ubuntu/
Tomcat 9 appears to be running fine (and I can access the manager app through the browser): > systemctl status tomcat ● tomcat.service - Tomcat 9 servlet container Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/tomcat.service; enabled; vendor prese t: enabled) Active: active (running) since Mon 2022-02-28 13:28:23 CET; 23h ago Process: 13902 ExecStart=/opt/tomcat/tomcatapp/bin/startup.sh (code=exited , status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 13909 (java) Tasks: 39 (limit: 38299) Memory: 340.4M CPU: 1min 44.670s CGroup: /system.slice/tomcat.service └─13909 /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin/java -Djava.util.l ogging.config.file=/opt/tomcat/tomcatapp/conf/logging.properties -Djava.util.l ogging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager -Djava.security.egd=file: ///dev/urandom -Djava.awt.headless=true -Djdk.tls.ephemeralDHKeySize=2048 -Dja va.protocol.handler.pkgs=org.apache.catalina.webresources -Dorg.apache.catalin a.security.SecurityListener.UMASK=0027 -Xms512M -Xmx1024M -server -XX:+UsePara llelGC -Dignore.endorsed.dirs= -classpath /opt/tomcat/tomcatapp/bin/bootstrap. jar:/opt/tomcat/tomcatapp/bin/tomcat-juli.jar -Dcatalina.base=/opt/tomcat/tomc atapp -Dcatalina.home=/opt/tomcat/tomcatapp -Djava.io.tmpdir=/opt/tomcat/tomca tapp/temp org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap start Feb 28 13:28:23 blackbox systemd[1]: Starting Tomcat 9 servlet container...

I can restart both tomcat and guacd without problems. I suspect the problem lies with the guacamole client. I have tried prerolled versions and compiling my own - neither of them works. Browsing to http://127.0.0.1:8080/guacamole gives a 404 error. The Tomcat manager shows a number of applications running, and shows guacamole is not. Trying to start it from the browser gives the error "FAIL - Application at context path [/guacamole] could not be started".
