Tomcat Chef食谱使用的版本不正确

Question

How can I correctly tell the tomcat chef recipes to use the version 8 of tomcat.

I try these lines in a attributes/default.rb file of a recipe depending on tomcat:

override['tomcat']['base_version'] = 8
default['tomcat']['base_version'] = 8
raise node['tomcat']['base_instance']

It displays

RuntimeError
------------
tomcat6

How can I get tomcat recipe using installing tomcat8?

Answer 1

Why don't you specify the override using a role? For example:

How to customise a tomcat recipe in Chef

It's also worth noting that the java cookbook uses packages to install tomcat but "tomcat8" is currently not available yet in the Ubuntu repositories...

Hope this helps
