I am trying to install tomcat on my machine(Linux Fedora 15
).
I have followed the below steps
I have entered in to root and typed the following
[root@user ~]# tomcat bash: tomcat: command not found... Install package 'tomcat' to provide command 'tomcat'? [N/y]
I have entered
y
and result is installed tomcat on machine as below* Running... * Resolving dependencies...
Typed the command tomcat to check whether installed or not as below
[root@user ~]# tomcat Usage: /usr/sbin/tomcat {start|start-security|stop|version}
From the above we can confirm that tomcat has been installed right?
Tried to check which tomcat and where is it located as below
[root@user ~]# which tomcat /usr/sbin/tomcat [root@user ~]# whereis tomcat tomcat: /usr/sbin/tomcat /etc/tomcat /usr/share/tomcat
Tried to start the tomcat server as below
[root@user ~]# /usr/sbin/tomcat start /usr/sbin/tomcat: line 30: /logs/catalina.out: No such file or directory
So whats wrong here and why the tomcat server is unable to start ? whether need to check/set any other addition settings for starting tomcat ?
Also I tried like below
[root@user ~]# /etc/init.d/tomcat start
Starting tomcat: [ OK ]
Here i hope it indicates the tomcat has started and hence opened the browser and typed localhost:8080
but the result is
Oops! This link appears to be broken.
Did you mean: localhost-8080.com

So why I am unable to start the server and view it on browser? Can any one please let me know the procedure to start the tomcat
server
