Hi,
I'm installing tomcat v8.5.9 on ubuntu 16.04
this is my tomcat.service file:
#System unit file for tomcat
[Unit]
Description=Apache Tomcat Web Application Container
After=network.target
[Service]
Type=forking
Environment=JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre/bin/java
Environment=CATALINA_PID=/opt/tomcat/temp/tomcat.pid

ExecStop=/opt/tomcat/bin/shutdown.sh
User=tomcat
Group=tomcat
UMask=0007
RestartSec=10
Restart=always
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
This is what I get when I check the journalctl -xe:
tomcat.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=2/INVALIDARGUMENT
PID file found but no matching process was found. Stop aborted.
tomcat.service: Control process exited, code=exited status=1
tomcat.service: Unit entered failed state.
tomcat.service:Failed with result 'exit-code'.
Anyone have any ideas for me on where to start looking for the
invalidargument?
Hi.
I don't think that whatever happens above is in the Tomcat code, from the standard Tomcat
distribution at http://tomcat.apache.org.
It looks more like something which happens in whatever code the Ubuntu Tomcat package is
using to start/stop the Tomcat service.
Is /opt/tomcat really the directory in which the Ubuntu Tomcat package installs
Tomcat ?
Or are you mixing up an Ubuntu Tomcat package and a Tomcat version downloaded from the
Tomcat website ?
(It is not the Tomcat development team which creates these packages, it is someone of the
Ubuntu distribution team. Therefore, people on this list would not necessarily know what
is in this package or how to help you. You may have better luck / a quicker response
asking on an Ubuntu forum).
