I think it's really a matter of personal preference. /usr/local is kind of a Linux-ism, while most other *NIXs tend to use /opt for "extra" software installed for all users. While /Applications may seem like a logical choice in Mac, I don't think it is such a choice because it's not a user application: it's intended to be run as a server. On my Mac for development, I have both CATALINA_HOME and any CATALINA_BASEs underneath my own user directory (/Users/chris). - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJTRITFAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRYrWoQAL7cPaOSAtykSJR3udDDjewF /IvUXJ9N9H+5wAi4igPYKxcWAwI0UlnPfeJWpgDCndyeAzbfelaQldUMBog9fnsM djueeYelSN0wk+rleXahA+S/puMxysLlVFoFMIUlwAxDBdiyX3WOrPxEXsHWMqTj axIi0bIG2JkLORGbXkPBcJ7/IAurd09yAGdYeRM/Zku1Y0sUjudx2Iom34rFnqIv u9xaW4aGdntQ8jO3+/zaaaumOK8nTHMEyNyp0Jn8vH4ZRBiSZd+Xjlrwfg5b6Zsq 7f0DAz678EhhDR2EXtvKnYwUUanIdQZCdgR1RzupOm87oi9MrRX9jWGTtXxL6P5H DbkPYpVTzhwPFQ+yvLqsmDPSlDrD4dQLQovnpESpWjGw2KrwRmEGuEaNVXTZAGSz 4/ldx0wPa91XEUgw7vAy/Y71r3pKQeqXOq2H9qqtH3bi5dUJtFAA/SrhEGxqdhtD VXxkWvQrxBrYNODfRHqiTzIG/4y8MmflboFj0RckHoQkXpnDOuEAnjSg200gwiPG SXrsde77RkLOVJsAID37zlqlmY1hS7ZQYg4a70MaIb2bVOdg7KBPjh1RQmvnMfPg G32tAB9qYJllsUvEsJisQtiKxL/5yI/eoI2vF4aQ6K1rONEumAtgAb4AslZQqnP4 omax9jngiU63YYIaRHYE =UyVM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
