tomcat installation

[anitha2324]

Hi All,

I have installed tomcat6 in fedora 10 using the yum command
#yum install tomcat6

I have started the tomcat using the command

#/etc/init.d/tomcat6 start

but when i open the browser and open the localhost
http://localhost:8080
I have got a blank page ..


Is my installation is successful , but i do remember that i should get tomcat page not a blank page....

There is no single installation directory if you installed using yum. Files are installed into directories with other files of the same type.

Where things are stored by default in Fedora 11:
================================================
Tomcat 6.x
----------
/etc/tomcat6                configuration files     $CATALINA_HOME/conf
/usr/share/java/tomcat6     libraries               $CATALINA_HOME/lib
/usr/share/tomcat6/bin      executables             $CATALINA_HOME/bin
/var/log/tomcat6            logs                    $CATALINA_HOME/logs
/var/cache/tomcat6/temp     temporary files         $CATALINA_HOME/temp
/var/lib/tomcat6            tomcat home directory   $CATALINA_HOME
/var/lib/tomcat6/webapps    web applications        $CATALINA_HOME/webapps
/var/cache/tomcat6/work     compiled servlets       $CATALINA_HOME/work
================================================
