Answer 1

Download the latest version in tar/zip from tomcat website and extract it.

open the [tomcat extract directory]/bin/catalina.sh in editer and change the JAVA_HOME and JRE_HOME path with your installed java's jdk and jre path.

 

move the tomcat directory to /usr/share/[tomcat7] by following command

 

sudo mv [tomcat extract directory]/     /usr/share/tomcat7 

 

now run the catalina.sh by folowing command

 

sudo /usr/share/tomcat7/bin/catalina.sh
