README file for apache-tomcat port
NOTES FOR 5.5.17-2
The port 5.5.17-2 introduces a couple of relevant changes:
- Tomcat now runs under a 'tomcat' user instead of root.
You may need to adjust permissions on custom config files
under $TOMCAT_DIR/conf if you have created any.
- The JAVA_HOME variable is now set in $TOMCAT_DIR/bin/setenv.sh,
which is read by tomcat startup/shutdown scripts.
PRE-INSTALL
Execute the pre-install script, or manually add a 'tomcat'
user and group.
NOTES
Starting from the 5.5.x series the default tomcat installation
requires Java 1.5; compatibilities addons are available, feel
free to provide them as a separate addon port.
The web administration interface is also removed from the
standard installation; again, if needed please provide it
through a dedicated port to avoid adding unnecessary stuff here.
POST-INSTALL
Set up a manager user/role in, $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/tomcat-users.xml,
ie:
<tomcat-users>
<user name="manager" password="verysecret" roles="manager" />
</tomcat-users>
