[Geoserver-users] Geoserver on Ubuntu Tomcat 5.5

Problem solved!!!

The problem raises using default tomcat5 installation in an
Ubuntu/Debian system. That is because it is very restrictive with
default permissions, so you need to manually edit
/etc/tomcat5.5/policy.d/04webapps.policy file and add the following line
before closing bracket:

permission java.security.AllPermission;

Then all you have to do is restart tomcat and the geosever war will be
automatically deployed. Obviously it will be better to narrow
permissions, but this way I can make it work.

What do you mean with "data in there"? I've just deploy the geoserver
war file in Tomcat, so I guess that it contains everything it needs.

Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services,

security?

Cool, good for a user guide. I've installed Ubuntu yesterday on a virtual machine but still did not find the time to test geoserver
on it. I'll have a look, hopefully changes needed to make Geoserver run on restricted environments are not huge.
