Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: tomcat6
In some cases Tomcat 6 fails to successfully start *during install*.
This doesn't prevent the installation from succeeding and you can still
run "sudo service tomcat6 start" to start it once it is installed.
If a JRE is not completely configured by the time Tomcat is started,
Tomcat will fail to start. This can happen in some installation
scenarios as Tomcat 6 doesn't formally "pre-depend" on a JRE.
For example, on a minimal system, the packages seem to be configured in that
order (some lines removed for clarity):
$ sudo apt-get install tomcat6 tomcat6-examples tomcat6-admin tomcat6-user
Setting up default-jre-headless (1.6-30ubuntu3) ...
Setting up openjdk-6-jre-lib (6b12-0ubuntu4) ...
Setting up tomcat6 (6.0.18-0ubuntu3) ...
* Starting Tomcat servlet engine tomcat6 ...fail!
Setting up openjdk-6-jre-headless (6b12-0ubuntu4) ...
However if you run:
$ sudo apt-get install tomcat6
Setting up openjdk-6-jre-lib (6b12-0ubuntu4) ...
Setting up default-jre-headless (1.6-30ubuntu3) ...
Setting up openjdk-6-jre-headless (6b12-0ubuntu4) ...
Setting up tomcat6 (6.0.18-0ubuntu3) ...
* Starting Tomcat servlet engine tomcat6 [OK]
