Just install it into ~/apache-tomcat-7.0.27 and call it a day. You won't have to worry about file permissions or any of that stuff because a) you will untar it as yourself and b) you will run it as yourself. Just be aware that he effective uid must have wrx access to work/, logs/, and probably temp/ That's why it's best to run it as yourself. Also, not running as root gives you a significant security boost because in the unlikely event of a Tomcat vulnerability, only your account can be trashed, not the entire machine. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.17 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk/iS+0ACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PClbgCcDXLBC+IeobtWd9igtseYCxCV RcEAnRgtHnxpOxpSqOpVLW0Rq2cF54BY =ZtN6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
