Unfortunately Red Hat decided\nnot to ship Tomcat anymore. The bash script uses RHEL 7 tomcat directories but maybe reconfigured\nto use any dirs. It does not yet make use of SELinux ACLs yet. For reference the RHEL 7 Tomcat ACLs\nare included.\n\n## Usage\n```\nmyprompt|% ./automate_tomcat.sh \n\n Syntax:\n\n    ./automate_tomcat.sh  \u003cOPTION\u003e\n\n  where OPTION is one of\n\n          --help    what you are loooking at\n          --check   checks the latest already downloaded version against the one available from Apache\n                    (return code 11 means: you're running an old version)\n          --update  you have a working installation previously generated by this script and you want to\n                    update the installation. Config files won't get overwritten\n          --init    bare Tomcat installation from Apache web site. Adds a tomcat user/group if not available.\n                    After this need to supply the webapp and edit config files\n          --force   force installation, all files will NOT be overwritten\n          --remove  ATTENTION: dangerous: it wipes the whole tomcat installation off the disk\n                    and removes any added tomcat user/group.\n\nUsing a terminal the default is to get status info what the program is doing. When you use\n--check in a cronjob, and if you're behind the actual release a notification will be sent\nto the specified (cron) mail recipient.\n\n\nUse it at your own risk. Usage without any warranty. It's recommended to backup\nyour files before usage.\n\nmyprompt|% \n```\n\n## License \n\nis GPLv3, see [License](https://github.com/drwetter/automate_tomcat/blob/main/LICENSE) file.\n\n## Have\n\nfun.
