Hi,

The Tomcat install on Debian Server 40r6 is quite weird and not functionnal,
although I used the package manager.

I just installed tomcat5.5 on debian server 40r6, with:
aptitude install sun-java5-jre
aptitude install tomcat5.5 tomcat5.5-admin tomcat5.5-webapps

It is then available from http://localhost:8180/, as well as the Tomcat
Manager (http://localhost:8180/manager/html). So far, so good.

Then I create a dummy HTML file I want to see when calling
http://localhost:8180/foo.html, I have to put it there:
/usr/share/tomcat5.5-webapps/ROOT/foo.html
This works.

If I put a WAR file in this directory, it is automatically expanded:
/var/lib/tomcat5.5/webapps/

BUT the problem is that:
1. it does not show up in the “Tomcat Web Application Manager” page
2. it is not reachable by http://localhost:8180/

If I deploy a WAR using the “Tomcat Web Application Manager”, it is then
available in /var/lib/tomcat5.5/webapps, but not shown in the Manager page.

What’s the problem?
It seems I have 2 webapps directories, instead of one:
/usr/share/tomcat5.5-webapps/
/var/lib/tomcat5.5/webapps/
Changing /var/lib/tomcat5.5/webapps/ to a link to
/usr/share/tomcat5.5-webapps/ does not solve the problem.

How can I solve that?

Thanks
