Apache Tomcat not working

I installed tomcat10, and the command catalina version is not recognized from the terminal, as it should be. I’m asking for help to set this up, because I really don’t understand what is happening…

Here’s a picture from pamac GUI showing that it is installed (couldn’t check from terminal):

Perhaps you need to start the service?

I thought it would work :frowning:

I found a solution. The script, which should be executable from the terminal can only be executed from its folder. I wrote a shell script, which calls the catalina.sh. The script needs to be added to $PATH and that’s it.

For me the catalina.sh was in /usr/share/tomcat10/bin.

The script:

#/bin/bash

DIRECTORY="/usr/share/tomcat10/bin"

$DIRECTORY/catalina.sh "$@"
