RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1363884 +++

Description of problem:
The tomcat-tool-wrapper provided by the tomcat package doesn't work.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
tomcat-8.0.32-5.fc23.noarch

How reproducible:
Every time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install tomcat via `yum install tomcat`
2. Execute the command and observe:

[coty@localhost tomcat]$ tomcat-tool-wrapper -server org.apache.catalina.realm.RealmBase -a md5 test
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/tomcat/util/ExceptionUtils
	at org.apache.catalina.startup.Tool.main(Tool.java:218)
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.tomcat.util.ExceptionUtils
	at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:381)
	at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:424)
	at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:331)
	at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:357)
	... 1 more
ABRT problem creation: 'success'

Actual results:
A CNFE is thrown because the ExceptionUtils class is not in the classpath.

Expected results:
[coty@localhost tomcat]$ tomcat-tool-wrapper -server org.apache.catalina.realm.RealmBase -a md5 test
test:4af3bd7759edac2bd372d04c343aee12f789394ecada8c9ce6fc32555fbf5c76$1$58040d6efb505a5e2bcf7c863968a192
Comment 1 Coty Sutherland 2016-08-03 20:16:57 UTC 
Unlike the Fedora version (which is tomcat8), this one just needs the following adjustment:

diff --git a/tomcat-7.0-tool-wrapper.script b/tomcat-7.0-tool-wrapper.script

Comment 2 Coty Sutherland 2019-11-07 18:57:50 UTC 
Given the age of this bug, the fact that I reported it in 2016 and it hasn't had any additional interest since then, and the fact that it's a simple script change to workaround it, I'm closing this.
