How to install and configure apache tomcat7 on centos 7 | RHEL 7

Apache Tomcat is a opensource web server for Java applicaton of Apache Foundation like Apache HTTP server. It used for deploying Java Servlet and JSP applications. To deploy any application in Tomcat we can simply create a war file and deploy them.

This has been the best, easy to follow video on Tomcat setup so far. The only issue I had was I had to put the space back in between the "roles="admin-gui, manager-gui"/>" as it would not recognise my password. Also i had to open the firewall port for 8080 using the firewall-cmd --permanent (command)

Thank you Chandu, very much helpful. We see more things from you.

Hi Chandu,
Thank you for the tutorials. Would you recommend using yum install or tar up the binary zip if I was to setup multiple Tomcat instances? I find the setup (file structure) is much different when I perform yum install. It also does not use catalina.sh so it is hard to migrate from my old server.

after the tomcat runs in the browser you will go to the manage section and on the war file just upload your project war file and all is done
