This page describes how to setup Tomcat using your O.S repository's package.
♦ Note that the version in the repository is often an old one. For instance, Tomcat8 might not be available yet in the repository.
Requirement
You must already have a Java Runtime.
Installation
Depending on your distribution, you might have a more recent version than Tomcat7. Please check it using apt-cache search tomcat.
# Developer workstation
apt-get install tomcat8 tomcat8-admin tomcat8-common tomcat8-docs tomcat8-examples
# Server
apt-get install tomcat8 tomcat8-admin
On Debian, Tomcat is NOT registered as a service.
To overcome this, you can add a symlink for tomcat8:
ln -s /etc/init.d/tomcat8 /usr/bin/tomcat8
Start/Stop Tomcat on boot
To add Tomcat on boot just do:
cd /etc/init.d
update-rc.d tomcat8 defaults
To remove Tomcat from boot just do:
cd /etc/init.d
update-rc.d tomcat8 remove
