How to install and Configure Apache Tomcat in Linux (RHEL/CentOS)

TOMCAT APACHE:
Apache Tomcat is a web server for Java server-side applications. It is a Servlet/JSP container and implements several Java EE specifications.

Steps to follow for the installation and configuration of TOMCAT APACHE in RHEL/CentOS:

1. Login as root in server and configure yum local repo if not already configured. (watch below video for yum local repo configuration):

2. Install tomcat package from repository by yum command.
# yum install tomcat

4. Install all other tomcat packages like tomcat webapps, tomcat docs etc.
# yum install tomcat*

user username="admin" password="password" roles="manager-gui,admin-gui"/

6. Start tomcat service now.
# systemctl start tomcat

7. Set tomcat service to start automatically after reboot.
# systemctl enable tomcat

8. Add port 8080 (to be used by tomcat) in firewall.
# firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-port=8080/tcp

9. Reload the firewall.
# firewall-cmd --reload

Now Test your configuration:
Open Firefox and write below line in address bar.
localhost:8080
or
Open any browser and write below line in address bar.
ip-address:8080
(where ip-address is the IP address of your tomcat server)

You should see a webpage showing successful configuration of Tomcat Apache.

You have successfully installed and configured Tomcat Apache in Linux.
