Trying to install Tomcat on Solaris 10

Problem:
There is a problem in installing Tomcat on Solaris as there is some kind of incompatibility between Solaris Tar and GNU tar.
When you will try to extract the Tomcat via tar utility then it will cut file names which is longer than some specific number of characters. It will produce @LongLink error.

One solution:



  •  Download Apache-Tomcat(required version).zip from ftp site of Apache tomcat. You will find some FTP links on this page http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi
  •  Unzip that tomcat.zip file
  •  Removed extra new line character on startup.sh and shutdown.sh: "dos2unix startup.sh startup.sh"  and  "dos2unix shutdown.sh shutdown.sh" 
  • Changed permissions of the startup.sh and shutdown.sh:  "chmod 775  *.sh"
