Tomcat 5.5 Doesn’t Start in Ubuntu 7.04

For the Ubuntu installation, Tomcat’s log file is set to be a pipe, but

Tomcat can’t seem to start with it. A quick fix will be to recreate it
as a regular file with the same security settings and restart Tomcat.

$ cd /var/log/tomcat5.5
$ sudo rm catalina.out
$ sudo touch catalina.out
$ sudo chown tomcat55:nogroup catalina.out
$ sudo chmod 600 catalina.out
