One is in .../apache-tomcat-10.1.13/ the other is in ../apache-tomcat-8.5.11/ The 10.1.13 configs were not copied/modified from the 8.5.11 configs. They were installed from scratch from apache-tomcat-10.1.13.tar.gz. /srv/tomcat is symlinked to the 10.1.13 directory for testing and to the 8.5.11 directory for production. For example: # ls -l /srv/tomcat lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 35 2025-12-12 13:23 /srv/tomcat -> /user/util/src/apache-tomcat-8.5.11/ The 8.5.11 config files are distinct from the 10.1.13 files: $ ls -l apache-tomcat-8.5.11/conf total 428 drwxr-s--- 28 tomcat tomcat 4096 2025-08-27 01:31 Catalina/ -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 12895 2017-01-10 16:05 catalina.policy -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 7202 2017-01-10 16:05 catalina.properties -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 1612 2016-06-14 19:37 context.xml -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 1338 2017-01-10 16:05 context.xml-orgJMF -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 1149 2017-01-10 16:05 jaspic-providers.xml -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 2358 2017-01-10 16:05 jaspic-providers.xsd -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 3622 2017-01-10 16:05 logging.properties -rw-r--r-- 1 root tomcat 14658 2025-12-12 12:08 server.xml -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 7511 2017-01-10 16:05 server.xml-orgJMF -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 2164 2017-01-10 16:05 tomcat-users.xml -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 2633 2017-01-10 16:05 tomcat-users.xsd -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 167259 2021-10-28 09:47 web.xml $ ls -l apache-tomcat-10.1.13/conf total 612 drwxrws--- 24 tomcat tomcat 4096 2025-12-08 03:26 Catalina/ -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 12926 2023-08-23 17:34 catalina.policy -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 7693 2023-08-23 17:34 catalina.properties -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 1447 2025-12-08 03:11 context.xml -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 1149 2023-08-23 17:34 jaspic-providers.xml -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 2313 2023-08-23 17:34 jaspic-providers.xsd -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 4144 2023-08-23 17:34 logging.properties -rw-r--r-- 1 root tomcat 15199 2025-12-12 12:23 server.xml -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 2756 2023-08-23 17:34 tomcat-users.xml -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 2558 2023-08-23 17:34 tomcat-users.xsd -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 2666 2025-12-12 12:46 web.txt -rw-r----- 1 root tomcat 173384 2025-12-12 13:24 web.xml To help avoid confusion I've completely removed the 8.5.11 everything.
