Thanks so much for the quick reply Andre. There doesn't appear to be
anything on line 87 but there is on line 114. See the screenshot I took of
the server.xml file below-

Ok, perfect. So there is only one tomcat9 we can be talking about, and one
server.xml file. And since this is a "standard tomcat", that server.xml must
be in .. let me look at the logfile again) ..
08-Sep-2017 10:05:02.911 INFO [main]
org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig.deployDirectory Deploying web
application directory [/home/tomcat9/apache-tomcat-9.0.0.M26/webapps/ROOT]
so here : /home/tomcat9/apache-tomcat-9.0.0.M26/conf/server.xml
and considering this :
08-Sep-2017 11:31:21.952 SEVERE [main]
org.apache.tomcat.util.digester.Digester.fatalError
Parse Fatal Error at line 87 column 6: The content of elements must consist
of well-formed character data or markup.
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; systemId:
file:/home/tomcat9/apache-tomcat-9.0.0.M26/conf/server.xml; lineNumber: 87;
columnNumber:
6; The content of elements must consist of well-formed character data or
markup.
there is something on line 87, position 6, that he does not like.
And further down also :
08-Sep-2017 13:17:36.947 SEVERE [main]
org.apache.tomcat.util.digester.Digester.fatalError
Parse Fatal Error at line 114 column 6: The string "--" is not permitted
within comments.
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; systemId:
file:/home/tomcat9/apache-tomcat-9.0.0.M26/conf/server.xml; lineNumber: 114;
columnNumber:
6; The string "--" is not permitted within comments.
but maybe this is not in the server.xml file itself, but in something else
that the server.xml references there (like an external "XML entity" or
something).
Why don't you get those 2 lines from your server.xml and paste them here :
