How to configure tomcat.conf file

772

After running an update via yum on my CentOS 6.7 server, my Tomcat7 instance has stopped functioning properly.

message during update:

warning: /etc/tomcat/server.xml created as /etc/tomcat/server.xml.rpmnew

There are two logs that have exceptions in them after running:

/etc/rc.d/init.d/tomcat restart
Stopping tomcat:                                           [FAILED]
Starting tomcat:                                           [FAILED]

catalina.out:

/usr/sbin/tomcat: line 59: -classpath: command not found

tomcat-initd.log:

/usr/sbin/tomcat: error: Failed to set JAVACMD

However, if I update tomcat.conf to the following:

# Where your tomcat installation lives
CATALINA_BASE="/usr/share/java/tomcat"
CATALINA_HOME="/usr/share/java/tomcat"
JASPER_HOME="/usr/share/java/tomcat"
CATALINA_TMPDIR="/var/cache/tomcat/temp"

which has in it:

But running afterward:

/etc/rc.d/init.d/tomcat restart

throws the following exception:

Stopping tomcat: /etc/rc.d/init.d/tomcat: line 209: /usr/share/java/tomcat/logs/tomcat-initd.log: No such file or directory
                                                           [FAILED]
Starting tomcat:                                           [FAILED]

line 209 in /etc/init.d/tomcat:

[ "$RETVAL" -eq "0" ] && $SU - $TOMCAT_USER -c "${TOMCAT_SCRIPT} stop" >> ${TOMCAT_LOG} 2>&1 || RETVAL="4"

What should these settings be in tomcat.conf? I cannot figure this out.

EDIT

following the suggestion from ALex_hha the following is encountered:

/etc/rc.d/init.d/tomcat restart
Stopping tomcat:                                           [  OK  ]

Furthermore:

<!-- Define an AJP 1.3 Connector on port 8009 -->

Is tomcat running?

sudo service tomcat status
PID file exists, but process is not running                [WARNING]
tomcat lockfile exists but process is not running          [FAILED]

As workaround you could try explicitly set path to the log file in the /etc/rc.d/init.d/tomcat

Replace

TOMCAT_LOG="${TOMCAT_LOG:-${CATALINA_HOME}/logs/${NAME}-initd.log}"

with

TOMCAT_LOG="/var/log/tomcat/tomcat-initd.log"

However, if I update tomcat.conf to the following:

Should be

CATALINA_BASE="/usr/share/tomcat"
CATALINA_HOME="/usr/share/tomcat"
JASPER_HOME="/usr/share/tomcat"

/usr/share/java/tomcat is incorrect path for CATALINA_BASE/CATALINA_HOME
