I am trying to use geoserver-2.17.2-war on Apache Tomcat 8 in ubuntu 18.04 server.
I am able to upload geoserver.war file to the application server’s webapps directory.
However, I am not able to start geoserver. The error message got is:
FAIL - Application at context path [/geoserver] could not be started.
The tutorials I follow [1,2,3] say that "uploading geoserver.war file to the application server’s webapps directory is enough to deploy the application". Is there any configuration that I am missing? I would appreciate if you could provide links to some working examples.
Here (https://www.dropbox.com/s/b64u383j9s07wb4/catalina.out?dl=0) is the log generated while trying to start geoserver (Start button click), the log for catalina.out Thank You.
