Bug#753372: tomcat8: Can't run tomcat8-examples in Tomcat Web Application Manager

[Renato Rodrigues]

Package: tomcat8
Version: 8.0.9-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I'm trying to run tomcat8-examples application in Tomcat Web Application
Manager. Deploy works fine but 'start' button return me the message:

FAIL - Application at context path /examples could not be started
FAIL - Encountered exception org.apache.catalina.LifecycleException: Failed to
start component
[StandardEngine[Catalina].StandardHost[localhost].StandardContext[/examples]]

In addition to the installation, I only make the user/password in /etc/tomcat8
/tomcat-users.xml.

I have tried to run another web application. Deploy is ok, but 'start' return
me the message:

FAIL - Application at context path /ScadaBR could not be started

Maybe the problem is related.

Thanks for help.
