This looks pretty much like the one I use on openSuSE. The only
difference is that I define the variables in a file in /etc/sysconfig.
/etc/sysconfig/tomcat contains.
CATALINA_BASE=
CATALINA_HOME=
TOMCAT_USER=
...
Then, the script sources that file with
. /etc/sysconfig/tomcat
If I need to change a configuration setting, I'm not modifying a script.

It took me quite a while but I finally got a tomcat startup script working
using jsvc to start as a tomcat user running on port 80.
Are there any drawbacks/cons to this method as opposed to NOT using jsvc and
instead running tomcat on 8080 and having the firewall redirect to this
port? Does using jsvc have any hidden ramifications?
Also, I am posting the startup file I came up with in the hopes that it will
either serve as a good example for anyone needing this solution or else
someone perhaps can spot any mistakes/problems it may contain. It is
working on my system but I am not sure if I am missing anything.
Thanks!
